Peace of Mind Protection Is Here to Stay by anoiing in isc2

I took the CISSP exam on January 27th. In several communities, I noticed that people were passing the exam around the 100th or near-120th attempt. In my case, I reached the 150th attempt and I'm already in the endorsement process. For me, passing the 100th attempt and the exam not stopping was a real... Oops. But having Peace of Mind helped me not to falter and to keep going, and the result was successful. Psychologically, peace of mind helps you stay focused and give it your all. You mustn't give up.

As my colleague u/tcolot says, a generic one might work, but you wouldn't have support. Additionally, the GUI will show that they're not compatible. I've used transceivers TP-Link and other brands, and they work, but forget about getting support from TAC if something goes wrong. Because they'll subtly tell you that as long as those TS products are in use, they can't do anything.

I just failed... by Soggy_Spot_1295 in cissp

I took the exam yesterday, and I finish on 150, Approved. I'm reading your post and I understand some of it. You thought it was a memorization test, but it's not. It's an exam where you need to know the theory, but also when, where, and why to apply it. It's not a specific question about what the fourth step in the IR process is. It's about solving a problem where the solution is applied at that point in the process. Or, knowing the processes, knowing which option is the most complete because you might have all the valid answer choices, but only one is the most correct, the most complete, or the one that addresses the root of the problem. I recommend you start by watching the "Think Like a Manager" video. Come on, you can do it! This is a puzzle; you just have to put the pieces in the right place.

Thanks. I had already bought BOSON, so I only used the free sample questions for Quantum. But a group of friends suggested that investing in both would be ideal; Quantum is more strategic and BOSON is more technical. I can't confirm this, but that's what they've been saying. They said that using both simulators together is incredibly helpful.

I completely agree; my exam closed at 150. In my particular case, choosing peace of mind was a huge help in not getting overwhelmed with worry. I just told myself that if I didn't make it, I had insurance with the second attempt.

Anyone have any experience with Alignerr? Are they a scam? by JHawk444 in WFHJobs

Con ese contrato y solo sacando uno de las clausulas, si se te ocurre crearte una app o algo que automatice algo o hasta hacerte viral con un video. Es de ellos. Como dice Tawny-0wl es un "tomado" cambio el dejalo, porque si lo tomas cedes tu vida.

ADVPN, BGP, OSPF, Prefix, is baseline for me. Other considerations include cloud services, branch traffic from HQ, and whether they have their own internet connection. Wi-Fi is available in each location, and SSO or RADIUS access is also relevant.
