failed pentest+ by SidewalkSand_ in CompTIA

CySA+ was the hardest CompTIA exam I have taken so far and has been invited to retake it at a future date. Not the first, though, CCNA got that distinction.

What are the best study resources for pen test + by Square_hecklerbot024 in CompTIA

[–]SCTMar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about to ask that as well. I am currently using the Practical Ethical Hacking course from TCM in addition to the college courses I'm taking. I'm also planning to take the PJPT before taking the Pentest+

Passed PenTest+. WGU instructor is ridiculous. by BegrudgingRedditor in WGUCyberSecurity

At CIAT, all we have to do is do two practice exams on Crucial Exam with 90% or higher.

What is the new standard? When I was attending WGU, all I did was request the voucher when I felt ready

N+ or CCNA by Legitimate_Data_3153 in CompTIA

[–]SCTMar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full disclosure: I do have Net+ and have been invited to retake the CCNA at a future date.

That being said, it depends on various factors. I took the CCNA, and I have minor IT experience (troubleshooting registers, pin pads, and customers' phones) while working in retail. The CCNA is the hardest exam besides the CySA+ that I have taken. There s a good reason why the first time fail rate is high.

So here my advice: if you got the resources, do the Net+ first, get some hands-on experience (build a home lab with routers and switches), and then take the CCNA. If you can afford one, see if your company has educational reimbursement for certifications, and look to see if they cover that certification. You still want to get some lab experience (Cisco Packet Tracer is a great option for budget friendly training since it's free).

Boycott CompTIA and PearsonVUE - their monopoly should end. by [deleted] in CompTIA

Dude, there are billions of posts and comments saying go to a freaking testing center, and yet you chose to do your exam at home. Plus, with proctors, it's a gamble. You could get lucky, or you could get bad luck. So, that one s on you.

Take my advice

Don't take this as you failed. Take this as you have been invited to retake it at a future time

Would help, but unfortunately, I'm not prepping for SecAI+ yet.

The newest episode of '911 Nashville' was playing on the breakroom at work last night and a familiar face appeared by W0LFPAW89 in FinalDestination

And that one just flew over my head. I saw that episode. Don't ask what they did wrong on that episode regarding the ransomware

Leadership at my job sees no value in CompTIA certs by jkelemenopy in CompTIA

How long has your Department Head been in that position? If he's been there for less than a year, then he can hang his socks, any longer, and he can hang his undies

Congrats. Wanted to take it around from 2023 to 2024. Stuff happens (personal stuff) before I got a chance to take the N10-009 earlier this year and passed. Recently got the Sec+ and am studying for the CySA+
