There’s lots of worthwhile advice here to pick from.
For suggestions of practical activities to help build your skills and knowledge, or to frame it in a wider cyber context, you may find Cyber Springboard [1] useful. I’ve set it up to help others looking to get into cyber roles.
I’ve used the Cyber Security Body of Knowledge CyBOK [2] to help organise the activities.
There’s lots still to do in building pathways, mapping to job roles etc.
Feedback and suggestions are appreciated.
Edit: it may also be worth looking at the different specialisms and seeing what interests you most. The UK Cyber Security Council have a careers route map [3] which may be useful to you.
Cyber security is a very broad domain. There are roles where your combination of experience would be both interesting and valuable.
You might find it interesting to explore other areas of the domain through the Cyber Security Body of Knowledge [1] or through some activities I’ve been putting together on Cyber Springboard [2]. See which areas might interest you, and then find roles that allow you to grow in those areas.
Moving back to software with security experience can be a good way to keep your skills fresh, but with a different perspective and set of skills that you can use to help grow others around you as well.
