I have no CS education. I don't have any degree, or even a high school diploma. Most of those around me have had CS or related degrees, many from quite well-regarded programs, but there has been no apparent correlation to security awareness. To the extent they have an edge, it's in mathematical analyses and algorithm design/implementation[0], which are of limited direct use in most day-to-day things like noticing "this endpoint uses plain HTTP", "this isn't an HMAC, also serial numbers aren't secret keys", or "a 4-digit PIN is not a secure password".

[0] And even then, I've wondered more than once what the hell goes on in CS programs when I've found myself explaining concepts like entropy and the difference between speed and scalability.
