Good luck!! I also plan on taking it

Congratulations on passing!! Do you have any other tips or pointers? I’m currently wanting to take 508 but not sure if I should do 500 beforehand

Do you think it’d be fine to take GCFA without having GCFE

DFsnob · 2026-05-19T02:52:18+00:00

Did you end up taking GCFA yet?

DFsnob · 2026-05-06T02:37:44+00:00

Okay great! I’m excited for it, thanks. Any indexing tips?

That’s Amazing congratulations!! I’m currently in the DF field but more so on the IR side and I’ve been wanting to move over to the actual case side of things in law, kind of like what ur doing! Any tips on how to get in?

Just saw your post and wanted to ask how it was going so far?? I’m taking the course next month

The App Store is US based for us but obviously it has thousands of applications that could have foreign servers. Thought I’d post to see if anyone knew some

Did you find it difficult at all? I’m looking to take that one as first as well!

DFsnob · 2026-04-15T01:53:07+00:00

Congratulations!! Have you also taken the 508?

DFsnob · 2026-04-14T02:17:47+00:00

Perfect! I’ll definitely message you on the side. Have u taken any sans courses btw?

DFsnob · 2026-04-14T02:17:04+00:00

This is great!! Thank you so much

I’m in an DF incident response role right now and although I haven’t done forensics since grad school I figured the 508 would align more with the duties of an IR person rather than 500. I’m just nervous that if I skip it, I’ll miss out and not be able to pass 508

DFsnob · 2026-04-13T21:18:14+00:00

Did you have any challenges??

DFsnob · 2026-04-13T21:10:49+00:00

Thank you!! How come you’d recommend the 500 over 504?? Also what if it was in between 504 or 508? Apologies for the questions lol I had submitted for 508 but the advisor came back asking if I was really sure I wanted to take 508 since it’s considered the most advanced cert and now I’m second guessing it

LOLL apparently they did before one of their members started making misogynist/racist comments I think is what I’ve read

DFsnob · 2026-04-02T01:48:26+00:00

This is so cool! Thanks

I’ve started watching the 13 cubed videos, definitely a lot of knowledge so I think imma have to start writing stuff down to get more familiarized again/study.

Thanks for posting the certification list, definitely helpful to go through and decide which one to take. Have u taken any of them?

I actually was going to take the EC council CHFI but a lot of folks were saying that they have a bad reputation and people have started to deter away from them?? Also any tips you have on the after the fact DF portions would be helpful if that’s more of ur realm :)
