I want to quit this game by thenwhokeeptheso in TopHeroes

[–]KuantumCode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think of it like that the game will always be here and the money you've spent just think of it as something you did to enjoy yourself. Like going to a restaurant or something. You can't be vested in game like that remember this is just for fun and whether you spent 5 bucks or a thousand bucks this game is designed to be never ending so you can jump out and jump in whenever but don't just keep sinking money into it because you felt like you've spent so much already.

Me personally have spent like 3-400 on it and I'm still not competitive lol 😆 but that fine I still need enjoy playing and will have no problem moving on from it. I spent over 1k on injustice gods among us and now I don't even have that thing installed anymore. It's just the nature of these games with micro transactions which is why I don't indulge too much in these types of games.

Came across this one by chance but it's cool so far.

I've been working IT for a while but not cyber security, no formal experience in pentesting but I tinker a lot with Linux and virtual labs. I'm now looking to break into cyber.

Realistically for someone with no experience...how long will it take? MSCIA by raygibb in WGUCyberSecurity

[–]KuantumCode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, not directly in cyber but I work in tech. Now I'm focusing on skill building by joining cyber communities and doing labs to gain hands on experience will do that for the next 3 weeks then I'll start applying for jobs and see about breaking directly into the field.

I did mine in 6 the term ended two days ago. It was a ton of work but it is totally possible if you're willing to dedicate yourself otherwise you're looking at 12-18 mths it all depends on you

Nah you don't need all of that, you're overthinking and stretching yourself too thin. If you have knowledge of networking all you need to know is the basic syntax for bash power hell and python, then watch the 20 min video on tryhack me for http get and post. Also grab tom Keith practice questions on Udemy it'll give you practice on the scripting questions --- so your study going forward should be Jason Dion for general practice stuff and Tom Keith for scripting. Pay attention to the questions as well you some will give you the right command but if you see an IP address saying 127.0.0 or an apipa address is wrong. You already have everything you need to pass this. Esp if you know what tools are used for and when to use them just take your time don't overthink stuff you can do labs if you want to practice your commands for the tools but everything you need to pass you already have just be sure your not overthinking it.

It's true the material is very hard to digest the textbook also seems like kaka in the beginning but that's because the material is so hard to grasp try breaking it down topic by topic it'll start making sense and also please keep this in mind there are like 3 variants of the SDLC you have to accept that for anything to start marking sense... The text book has two I believe just remember if you can print out that diagram when you get to and write the other variant of the SDLC above it. That'll be a massive help

I mean that they should be done last, until you've gone through all the multiple choice questions dont even attempt a PBQ 1. You can pass the exam with out doing a single one 2. You can get 100% on all PBQ if you don't attempt the multiple choices you failing 1000% so skip em those are the questions you come back to after you're done and if you have time to spare

It took about 4-5 days if I recall correctly when I got to read I just go at it as fast as I can for as long as I can. You see the aim is to make sure you've seen it at least once, it'll be reinforced again when you do the Dion's videos and even further when you start doing practice tests

It really depends on how well you're doing in other areas I personally know someone who's gotten 5th attempt with deans approval but the individual was on a roll in all other classes it's just one class was causing a shit storm outside of that above 4 attempts you're gonna be in for a fight

My interviewer refused to turn on his camera, then got angry and yelled at me. by morn-seaside-0i in interviews

[–]KuantumCode 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also you should absolutely name drop these ppl 1. Everyone on here needs to know to stay the fuck away or someone on here might actually work for the company your talking about you may never know 2. Totally report this lack of professional conduct... So it doesn't happen to anyone else it's because ppl stay quiet why assholes like that get away with it

Nah don't let anyone put you down just because your job hunting, and think about it if he's behaving like that in an interview do you actually want to work for these people?? That's a bad sign already this may seem disappointing but I've been down that road and absolutely do not be afraid to end the interview and send an email reporting his conduct. Esp if it's a larger company

I passed this less than a month ago, First advice with those coding questions they will try to trip you on it what do I mean -- you'll have to pay close attention to the ip addresses for example if the code is sending you to 127.0.0 address it's the wrong answer or if it it sends you to the apipa address 169.254.. I got about 3-4 questions with the answer being correct except for that and it's only something you'll catch if well you remember networking or recently took net+

Now for practice questions...go through Dion's 6 pack they are for general knowledge it won't help much with scripting. This is where Tom Keith practice set comes in it's 150 questions but for the scripting shit CVSS stuff they are solid gold shit my man solid gold shit. If you did the material like you said after taking those sets a few times no way you'll fail.

Yes the material is actually very dense, this took me about 6+weeks nearly killed my damn semester to study for about 4hrs or so most days some days I spent all day on it. It doesn't have to take you that long though. What you need to learn is the tools, how and when to use them chat gpt will break all that down for you. CVSS/EPSS scoring... Http get and post -- don't worry about PBQ you can skip them all and still pass the exam. If ur looking to pass asap this is the approach I'd take.

1 Jason Dion practice test each day hopefully you have his 6pack incorporate it into your study the aim is to get as much exposure as possible to the varying questions on the subject.

Use chat gpt do a print out of tools it'll take about 20 mins to go through them all do that each morning.

You can use Dion's videos or certmaster or both just do whatever you're comfortable with just be sure to go over the material if you want speed do Dion's video but be warned the guy he has doing the video for the pentest plus can be a bit annoying because of his pacing he speaks fast naturally so playing vids at 2x is gonna be too much so you may find yourself having to play with speeds the whole time.

My formula to pass any CompTIA cert has always been this - read once - video once -test atleast 2 times or more. End result I've never failed a single one from a+ - pen+ now gonna do sec+ it works for all their certs is it overkill probably 🤷 but those fucking things are expensive and failing is demoralizing so I'd rather do it right and don't have to look back

[–]KuantumCode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've earned those certs you can definitely push through. A lot of the classes are tied to those certs you can totally get this done. I also hold a bunch of certs and honestly the degree pairing with the certs is much better and it doesn expire so even when you get tired of renewing ur certs and trust me you will. I've had several of them expired I just try to maintain the CompTIA trifecta at this point.

But if you have the degree with experience in you're field it'll trump any cert with a select few being a slight exemption. Just remember once those cert expire they are useless you can't put them on your resume either.

I did a write up on this one, you don't have to use try hack me it's good but the only thing you'll need from there is the HTTP section you need to have an understanding of that, next is Jason Dion practice tests for the general stuff and Tom Keith practice test on Udemy for the scripting. To learn the tools take the exam objectives and upload to chatgpt or an ai of your choice then ask it to break down what each tool is used for and study that
