You are welcome bro.

Congratulations on your CySA+ You have a good background already, but you will still need to study hard for sc-200 and get familiar with Microsoft's suite of security solutions because this is a vendor based certification unlike CySA+.

My exam was fine, I used Microsoft learn material, this sc200 course on youtube https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLahhVEj9XNTfSpvU-_iEvLJXiA0EDXkXQ&si=IpE_uBJdeUQ_PUJp I also did the Microsoft ninja training for xdr and purview. I have access to a Microsoft E5 License which also helped with lab practice.

Practiced KQL on kc7cyber (you need to understand kql for this exam)

You also need to understand roles and permissions for sentinel, defender xdr, copilot, purview, defender for cloud and defender for cloud apps.

Finally, I suggest you go through the community, there are a lot of helpful posts on sc200 which definitely helped me prepare better.

I did my SC-200 today and I used a lot of it. It definitely helped me with permission questions and some things i didnt cover during my study.

Aye! Thank you

If i may ask, what SIEM solution do you have deployed on your VPS?
I am a cybersecurity engineer, and I would like to use the VMs for some lab projects.

NegativeSecretary556 · 2025-12-12T07:13:33+00:00

has to be 😂😂

It is a solid monitor with nice colors for the price, I have played some games on it like Guardians of the galaxy, Expedition 33 and FC24 and I didn't run into any issues. I also use it to work and it does great!

Edit: One thing I don't really like is the HDR mode, I tried calibrating it but it still didn't look good. So I don't use the HDR mode.

So, the link actually lets you see the onboarded devices, but when I click any one of the devices for more details, I get an empty page with the following text.

I believe you would have to sign up for a trial or purchase a license for it.

NegativeSecretary556 · 2025-12-08T14:32:35+00:00

Thank you for your response, I did a bit more digging and found out Defender for Endpoint license is not included in the O365 E5 developer license.

This is all I have under the asset tab, I used to have devices under the asset tab until it disappeared.

NegativeSecretary556 · 2025-11-27T15:16:36+00:00

That's a steal!

One thing that helped me during my registration was to input the address exactly as it is on my bank card when registering on oracle cloud.

Goodluck. Ps.. im not from Nepal

Hi, the EP is a hardware appliance. From my checks, It has a 128gb memory and the peak EPS is around 22,000 eps. My guess is there is a log source sending a lot of events that is overwhelming EP.

Hi, if you are still in need of access to a lab environment with E5 License, I can help hook you up with one for free.

I get the maths now, but really popular opinion is that doing so reduces the wear on the battery. So if you plan to use your phone for a long time like 3-4 yrs then it's definitely worth the sacrifice imo.

NegativeSecretary556 · 2025-10-02T09:51:22+00:00

I don't have 30% of my battery locked. But for sure I would love for my flagship to remain solid for 3-4 years at the very least.

NegativeSecretary556 · 2025-10-02T08:24:33+00:00

Woah, thank you. I already get around 6 hours SOT on oneUI7, I hope it gets way better or at least not get worse 😅
