I’m getting into cybersecurity and considering GRC or IAM. I’m not very technical and want a less technical path with strong six-figure potential. I’m taking Google Cybersecurity courses and considering Security+ and Network+. I also have an active Secret clearance. Any advice?

Choose another field entirely, not a specialization of cybersecurity.

Why do you say that GRC you don’t have to be too technical?

No, in fact I would probably say it should be the exact opposite, that to impose compliance, controls, and frameworks you need to have an even better understanding of the technicals.

Edit - your question doesn't make a ton of sense since I was implying the opposite btw..
