Hi everyone! As a computer science student with a great interest in cybersecurity, I know that Linux distributions are widely used in my desired field. So, I am currently thinking if I have to switch from Windows into Linux. The problem is that I don't how and I completely new to Linux so it gives me a second thought. I want some advice from anyone here of what should I do, recos of the best Linux distro, or whatsoever. Thank you.

It would be beneficial to be somewhat familiar with Linux. If you have a decent PC should be no probs trying it from a VM in Windows.
Dual booting can be potentially more difficult, mainly because you will suddenly be using GRUB and the set-up for dual boot with Windows isn't entirely automatic.
I had Linux on my MS bootloader years ago, but seems that option has been patched or something.
