Hey Folks!
I recently had a buddy of mine look for some advice on what certifications to get for Azure/Intune/Entra for general IT doings and goings on.

I’ve had this issue myself in the past when trying to figure out who I want to be when I grow up.

SO!

I put together this little list to maybe help some folks on the way to being a super cool cyber person.

Hope this helps someone out there!
If you have any awesome books or any other resources you’ve found, please feel free to send them my way at alex@foxmeadow.tech and I’ll update this list!
