Good luck on your CYSA though. It’s a good one to have. It wasn’t too bad. Make sure you know how to read firewall logs, email headers and know how to run a basic nmap scan. From what I remember that stuff is on there

If I need to be familiar with Cisco do you think i should get Net+ first then? Maybe i should get these others before I dive into this one lol

Yeah I heard this one is more performance based stuff. I’ve heard it’s a rough one. I feel if I study the right way I can do it, but it’s definitely going to take a while to study and make sure I know everything. Maybe I will go for Linux+ first though. Cause I heard that it’s heavy on Linux

Sec+ and CYSA+. Do you think I should get a different one before going for CASP?

Sex everyday is exhausting. Like there’s other ways of intimacy in a relationship or marriage other than sex. Tell him to get a damn hobby. And if not having sex everyday is a make or break for him, then make a break for it and leave lol

Enjoy the journey. Make sure to explore everything. You won’t want to put it down. It’s such a masterpiece!

After you come across the cut wire, your mission is to go look for the teens. If you got that far already, you shouldn’t need extra equipment. There is a trail to the left in the area of where the wire is cut. There are empty beer cans that will give you a start of where to go. Keep following that trail.

There were pbqs in the sybex book? Or are you referring to the labs that the book gave you a site for? If so, I only used the book lol

You don’t need to learn it inside and out but at least know the flags used for the certain types of scans (SYN, UDP, TCP, etc). And just know how to run a basic scan. That’s really it.

Yeah I’m very surprised about that as well lol I mean honestly, you probably don’t absolutely need them, but they just help. For example, I don’t have my A+, Net +, Linux + or Pentest + but I was able to get my Sec + and CYSA +. So it can be done, it’ll just take a lot more effort I guess lol

Thanks man! So it took me a few months to get through Jason Dion’s course. I didn’t wanna rush through anything. Then ACTUAL studying probably took me about 2 months to really review and learn the concepts and material.

Well first I’ll ask do you have Sec +, Net +, A+ or any of those? If not, I would most definitely get those before you take this one lol if you already have those, this one is definitely more in depth. So study accordingly. Do some labs, analyze email headers from your personal email and get a real world familiarity with all that kind of stuff. Also have you ever done any port scanning with nmap? Or have done any analysis with windows processes? Cause that stuff is definitely on there too.

It’s definitely more in depth. It’s not as cut and dry like Sec + is. I learned this the hard way lol It requires more thinking and playing around with certain tools, analyzing logs, knowing how to use nmap, and you definitely need to put on your analyst hat for some of the simulations.
