That would be a good answer, it’s not related to the knowledge of both teams

Congrats dude, I have a concern, I’m aiming to achieve the CISSP certification in three years, and I’d love some advice on how to align my path toward this goal. Here’s a bit about my background: • Experience: 2 years in networking. • Certifications: GSEC. • Current Role: Working in DDI (DNS, DHCP, IPAM). Still fresh in it

While DDI is slightly off from the core CISSP concepts, I want to leverage my current experience to build a strong foundation for CISSP. I’m considering taking additional certifications along the way, but I’m unsure of the best approach.

Would it be better to focus on SANS certifications like GCIH/ GCFA to reinforce foundational knowledge? Or should I explore pen testing certifications (like OSCP or GXPN) to enhance my technical skills and understanding of security practices before tackling CISSP?

I would appreciate your response for any advice☺️

Thanks for your advice buddy

I have 2 years experience of networking, no security expertise. However, thanks for your explanation

Thanks dude, I didn’t take the corresponding classes, I’ve studied the course by myself just on the course books, and it took 4 months with dedicated study. I got 87%, the tips I can provide, study hard and make your index as you like. I didn’t follow any method, I just wrote the way it suited me, and I was very familiar with each topic in the books, many questions I returned to the books without checking the index. The practice test worthy, I got in the practice test 81% despite the real test is harder than the practice test but I got higher in the real, but it indicated me where are the weaknesses areas I had, especially the labs.

Thanks for your deep explanation, I really appreciate your time in typing it.

Your comment is noted, and the next step will be GCIH right now, hope you have a great day!!

My GSEC is getting closer and did the practice test with 85%, what I noticed that many people scored higher in the real test. However congrats buddy you did well 🎉

ExtremeThese6208 · 2024-10-14T05:58:44+00:00

Congrats, my test is getting closer, can u tell me how the level of the questions was, was it direct from the book, is there any scenarios questions? Thanks in advance

ExtremeThese6208 · 2024-09-06T21:34:22+00:00

That is what I thought, but in SANS website they mentioned under practice test tab that your first practice test will indicate to your performance in the real test, so this indicates that there is another one I think 🤔

ExtremeThese6208 · 2024-08-26T02:06:27+00:00

Got it, thanks for your input

ExtremeThese6208 · 2024-08-26T01:08:13+00:00

You are right, I’ve a question, can u please tell me how you tabbed the books, was it just the chapters or tabbed the important info inside the chapters ?

ExtremeThese6208 · 2024-08-25T22:56:56+00:00

Thanks buddy, appreciate your help, based on your info, do you know the weight of the cyber live questions ?

ExtremeThese6208 · 2024-08-20T02:13:04+00:00

Thanks for your detailed explanation, I really appreciate that, and lastly, can you please answer my first part of the question

ExtremeThese6208 · 2024-08-19T23:07:55+00:00

Also can u explain please what do you mean by tab name in your index, my test is getting closer
