Visa pathway

One of the newer cyber security ANZSCO codes created alongside Penetration Tester, Cyber Security Analyst, and others. Sits on CSOL, which supports the employer-sponsored 482 and 186, but is not currently on MLTSSL or STSOL, so it does not support the points-tested 189, 190, or 491 the way ICT Security Specialist (262112) does.
