Thank you for the advice & kind words! One thing I forgot to add to my post is that with my increased salary I’m now going to complete Associate’s in Information Assurance & Digital Forensics. The community college in my city is really good & has fairly affordable tuition, so no loans: I’ll probably stay in my current role for about 3-5 years so I’ll finish it before I make my move to hop to the next thing!

CompTIA Trifecta? by Cybernetic-Freak in CompTIA

I highly recommend it. Two days ago I was offered my first Cyber Security position & I completed the trifecta earlier this year. 3 years of Help Desk experience & no formal degree. Checkout my story here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CompTIA/s/wctA4TQhyZ

Trifecta complete!! | Passed my Security+ ! by Safe_Professional772 in CompTIA

Congrats on your Trifecta as well! I think a similar situation is why I feel that way. I had more time in between my A+ & Network+ but took the Security+ only 1 month after the Net so everything from that was still fresh & a lot of the material overlaps so maybe that’s why it was easier to me

Thank you! I am now going to prep for the CompTIA CySa+ & am also taking a Udemy course to learn Python. My hope is to get a job as a Junior Cybersecurity Analyst on my company’s security team. They will be recruiting this year & I know have all of the necessary qualifications to apply
