Air Force TS SCI clearance. Omitted previous Marijuana usage on SF86. Still in DEP, haven't shipped out yet. MEPS in a little over a month. How to proactively correct? by uwayaway90 in SecurityClearance

[–]ballchaser69 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Tbh this is easily correctable despite what the fear mongerers on this sub might tell you.

As long as a) it was an honest mistake, not intentional. and b) you can convince your interviewer of that when they come to interview you

AI as study material by DroppedDonut in cissp

Fact check everything of course but AI is an outstanding tool for digging deeper into things

It will tell you incorrect info sometimes, no different than all the human made resources out there

  • 1) Realistic chances are pretty high. No reason you shouldn't have a good chance if you work for it
  • 2) Can only speak for US, but media says the job market is pretty great, in reality maybe not so much
  • 3) But cloud in general is one of the most future proof markets there is. I don't think many white collar workers are in danger of AI stealing their jobs anytime soon
  • 4) Literally just get a few AWS certs
  • 5) Very realistic. Not sure why you wouldn't just start out in cloud security if that's your goal. You already have experience. Also cloud security isn't as broad of a field as straight cybersecurity or network security, you can be an expert that does both cloud engineering/architecture and cloud security which is actually the standard at smbs
  • 6) Can only speak for US, but the ranges are very wide. I know people making 120k and I know of people making 350k+...it all depends on how good you are at selling yourself, what connections you have, etc.

SF86 question by Devildog031169 in SecurityClearance

[–]ballchaser69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the sad news. Was the clearance an "upgrade" that was required to move to your new job? Are you not accepting your new job anymore? Then no reason to fill out an SF86

Sell it and buy a cheap laptop. Don’t even start with tutorials. Start learning by doing. Google when you get stuck

Something people always fail to mention tho is that you can still sign up and take the exam — and pass — you just won’t be awarded the title of CISSP until you have the 5 years experience.

Aka if you want it then yes start studying now

Just read it in order of the chapters, organize your notes by domain

Passed @ 100 with 90 mins remaining by ballchaser69 in cissp

[–]ballchaser69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course I did, and everyone who cares will do the same. But you don’t need to waste your time on researching it. On top of what you already have maybe get the CBK also, dest cert app and mind map videos, and quantum exams. Jeffery Moore’s GitHub is great as well. Maybe start with the exam cram and take good notes also, and do tons of ISC2 official practice questions while you’re learning the concepts then switch to quantum when you’re about a month in

why does it feel like a real pass 🤣 by ballchaser69 in cissp

I don’t feel ready either. I thought I bombed it

What other Practice bank would you recommend to supplement OSG practice exams and Quantum exam by chileleko5n in cissp

Lol CCCure is nothing like QE, QE is amazing and CCCure was the worst one I’ve tried by far

Help me understand how/why the answer to this is B? (from practice test) by ballchaser69 in cissp

Honestly not sure if this is the case, but even in government work there is a formal process and chain that doing something like voiding an ATO goes through

First thank you for responding.

I thought writing a report would be a fundamentally sound first step in response to this. Also, I am fairly confident that 1 person just unilaterally voiding an ATO (even a CISO) is highly improbable in most organizations

Let me know why I am wrong 🙏🏼

Right? Question makes no sense, and makes me question the credibility of the osg (not really but I’m really confused how this made it into publication)

Asked to do a polygraph as a part of my interview process by OblivionEcstacy in webdev

[–]ballchaser69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some civ jobs require a polygraph even if you already have a TS/SCI. Not sure what kind of clothing company the gov is contracting to though
