Cyber Security Jobs for Non‑Technical Professionals: Where Do You Fit In?

Defence Needs More Than Hackers in Hoodies When headlines warn of ransomware crippling hospitals or deepfakes swaying elections, we picture hoodie‑clad hackers and elite penetration testers.

Put plainly: if you can guide policy, manage projects, interpret regulations or inspire behaviour change, cyber security wants you. This guide highlights the fastest‑growing non‑technical roles, the transferable skills you already possess, and a concrete 90‑day plan to land a cyber security job—no packet sniffers required.
