true story... I passed SY0-601 Security+ test yesterday. your Practice Questions videos were last thing I watched before taking test. I reached Question 60 of the test and my brain was feeling burned out at that point. then I remembered your advice to pick out key words from question. that REALLY helped to simplify the question and finish test. most importantly to pass the test! so thanks a lot, I totally appreciate it.

It is super helpful for beginners to begin to understand security concepts while following along with your answer selection. It really helps one think back on the choices they make independently when hearing your insight on why you decide to choose, or not choose, specific answers. Keep it up, man!

Thanks again. These are all helpful. I appreciate the tip about CompTia leaning towards answers that affect business operations the least. I tend to get questions like this wrong because I am usually considering a combination of what would be fastest and most effective. I may need to change my mindset to fastest and least disruptive. Please keep these videos coming.

@ImCyberJames 4 ай бұрын

I'm glad you find these useful. I got confirmation of 1 more for Security+ slide, and then I'll do either CySA+ or Pentest+. But those will be a little different since I'll actually be writing those. Yeah, unless indicated specifically in the scenario/question, it's most likely going to be the answer that makes sense given the scenario/question but also has the least impact on business operations. That's a theme that CompTIA carries out in all of the exams I've passed including A+, Network+, Security+, CySA+, and Pentest+

@ImCyberJames 4 ай бұрын

That’s awesome! Something I want to point out that’s a little different is on the real exam it will be heavy with acronyms. I try to catch this when reading them, but an example would be it will say “SIEM” instead of “security information and event manager”. That tends to trip people up, so make sure you’re caught up on the acronyms. Also make sure to use other resources as well! You got this, can’t wait to hear when you pass

I'm a bit iffy on Q3, I believe the answer should've been D and not C, as stuffing means they have reused the same password for various services for one person and spraying is when attackers use common passwords on multiple accounts - in the scenario it says successful login attempts using employee usernames plural - correct me if I'm wrong but I disagree that C is the correct answer.

Hey James, question 7 of this exam is quite similar to the question 14 of week 2's exam in terms of standardizing security controls/ policies. Can I know why we can standardize for question 7 but not for question 14 as every country has their own laws? Unless question 7 is just about one country, then maybe its the context of the question. Would love if you could clarify.

On question 2, there's nothing to indicate that this is a series of multiple infected computers i.e. a botnet. The question should be phrased multiple workstations, not a single user's workstation, if its going to be a botnet, as opposed to a zombie or a single bot.

Do you happen to know how much overlap there is between Security+ and CySA+?

@ImCyberJames 4 ай бұрын

There is quite a bit of overlap when It comes to discussing vulnerabilities, types of attacks, attack vectors etc. CySA+ has additional types of questions such as looking at logs and understanding what's going on. I'll most likely focus on CySA+ after 1 more Security+

@cyrushurley2351 2 ай бұрын

The answer to question 4 is kind of weird. The question states that the application is "critical". I don't see how C wasn't already implemented. IMO, the answer should be "A". Who is writing these questions and sending them to you?
