Getting into Cyber Security

Hello, I am seeking advice from professionals and students about getting into Cyber Security. I have a BSc in forensic science with no previous experience in IT or cybersecurity. I have looked at the online courses provided by institutions like City and LIBF (which will take my qualifications), but most aren't recognised by the NCSC. Other avenues I was researching were degree apprenticeships with Open University, CompTIA courses, and courses on Udemy. Which pathway would you advise for a total newbie such as myself? Thank you.
