<p>I’m Tomaz, from Brazil. I’m currently pursuing two degrees: a <strong>Technologist in Systems Analysis and Development</strong>, and a <strong>Bachelor in Software Engineering</strong>. My ultimate goal has always been to work in <strong>Cybersecurity</strong>, but until recently I wasn’t sure how or when I’d make the move.</p>
<p>For a while, my plan was to just finish my degrees, then look for a specialization in Cybersecurity afterward. That’s still part of the plan, but now I’m taking it a step further.</p>
<h3 id="heading-the-twist-i-want-to-do-this-in-australia">The twist: I want to do this in Australia 🇦🇺</h3>
<p>I’m preparing to move next year and take a <strong>VET course in Cybersecurity</strong>. It’s not 100% settled yet, but I’ve decided to commit to this path now. That means studying seriously, before I even leave Brazil.</p>
<h3 id="heading-why-this-blog">Why this blog?</h3>
<p>This blog is where I’ll share my progress as I study. Think of it as a public learning diary. I’ll post about:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>The concepts I’m learning</p>
</li>
<li><p>Hands-on projects and labs</p>
</li>
<li><p>Tools I’m testing</p>
</li>
<li><p>And eventually, more advanced topics like SIEM, incident response, and cloud security</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>I’m also building a <strong>parallel documentation</strong> where I’ll organize everything in a more structured, technical format, sort of like a personal knowledge base.</p>
<p>If you’re reading this: hey, thanks for stopping by.<br />If no one’s reading this: that’s fine too. I’m writing this for future me anyway.</p>
<p>Let’s see how far I can take this.</p>
