Independent cybersecurity and database credentials I've completed alongside my first-year coursework.
These are foundational, basic-level certificates — a starting point, not a finish line. Two are cybersecurity-focused, from my Cappriciosec University coursework. The third is different on purpose: MongoDB Basics for Students is a database credential, not a security one — it covers NoSQL fundamentals and rounds out the SQL/relational database work I've already done in projects like the Bank Management System and the admission-registration system. I'm treating strong data fundamentals — both SQL and NoSQL — as just as important as security know-how.
I'm still early in this journey, and I'm actively working toward more recognized credentials next: Cisco certifications and the free Google career certificates. I'll add them here as I complete them.
