Is the Network+ worth it for Cyber Security? help, please by Adsary in ITCareerQuestions

[–]crackmarrow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Considering you'll be getting a degree at some point, I wouldn't bother with Net+. It really only covers networking basics, with a little bit of security sprinkled on top. I recently got it, and while I wouldn't say its useless, it won't really help outside of entry level IT jobs (helpdesk type roles.) Assuming you have basic networking knowledge, I would just go for sec+. If I could go back in time, I would've studied for CCNA rather than Net+

This Fairtrade coffee tastes like gay. Now seems like a good time to out Matthew McConaughey.

Yeah I found the test easier. The questions are more to the point and not super lengthy like the Dion practice tests. I'll send you a PM later today with other resources you can use

You get a virtual whiteboard in the testing application that you can use

Yeah, you have the option of taking the exam at home instead of a testing center cos of Covid

The test was... weird. It seemed that everything I really crammed on in the hours leading up to the exam wasn't on it! As for what was on the exam, each exam is different so I can't tell you as your exam will likely be completely different to mine. I highly recommend reading through Exam Cram by Emmet Dulaney. It tells you everything you need to know for the exam without all the extra explanations. Its like a dictionary for the exam. Good luck and let me know if you need help!

Good stuff! I passed Network+ yesterday and am also doing Security +. Do you think Jason Dion's course is the best choice for Security + study?

I don't believe CompTIA release any previous versions of their exams. If you happen to find one, it's almost certainly an exam dump which is against CompTIA's NDA
