CITREP+ course/certification recommendation

[Zenesis]

Hi, I am a year 4 computer science student, graduating in half a year's time. Since the CITREP+ subsidy is 100% for students, I am intending to take a course over this holiday.

Anybody got any recommendations?

I was intending to get into security, but it seems that there are a lot of branches in security (VA, consultant, pen test, malware, research ..) and I am not sure which one I might be interested in. I also went for an interview and it seems rather difficult to even get my foot into security. Any advise for someone graduating?

You can checkout the cyber security training roadmap here from nus iss,

You can also take reference from NICF Cybersecurity PCP roadmap, do note that this PCP roadmap is generally for non-computer science people, but you can take a look at the final certifications in the roadmap,
