The Symmetries Between Cyber Domains

Ever notice how some cyber professionals move fluidly between cyber domains?

One week they’re doing red teaming.
Next they’re knee-deep in incident response.
Then they’re coaching developers on secure coding.

They don’t have a higher IQ than you.
They’re just seeing the game differently.

They’ve learned that cyber has symmetries - patterns, skills, and mental models that repeat across domains.

When you train across those shared patterns, you level up faster.
What you learn in one area reinforces the others.

The visual below shows how it works.

Stop thinking in silos.
Start thinking in systems.
That’s how you grow - fast and for real.
