Compared to a cyber security degree, getting a certification can be more helpful in upskilling yourself for specialized skills if you are a fresher or looking for new skills. A degree in cybersecurity is more comprehensive and requires time investment from learners. Still, replacing a cyber security degree with a certification is not ideally possible. At the end, it will depend on the learner's specific requirements and the time constraint he/she has to go through the curriculum and complete it.
