I work for a company! I'd say tech is a perfect place to come in without a degree. A lot of companies would rather hire someone who's good (however they got good) than hire someone purely because of their degree. You obviously may have to grind a little more and try to make yourself shine but that's the hardest part. The second you got your foot in the door, you can officially put you're a security analyst and a bunch of doors open :)

If there's a will there's a way! The path to making it may be a little wavy and tiring (you'll doubt yourself, you'll fall into tutorial hell and have trouble getting out of it, etc..) at times but when you get into the industry it's very worth it imo.

Oh and I almost forgot, keep track of what you've achieved! It may not look like much, but showing you not only "know" stuff but have also managed to apply it is a great way to show you've got skills.
