I’m. Currently working on my sec+ do you recommend I focus on this after ? Trying to get a entry level job in incident response for cyber security

As someone who has completed a lot of these Certs from Comptia, if you have your Sec+ go for your Net+ if you don't have it already. Networking fundamentals are incredibly important in Cyber security. Once you have that, If you're looking for more of a challenge, go get your SSCP from isc2. If you're trying to do only Comptia then after Net+ go for Cysa+ > Pentest+.

Hi, many thanks for sharing your suggestions. I would like to buy the same book from official pearson site, but I live in europe/italy and the book is not available. Can I ask you from where you bought it?

@ihameed 3 ай бұрын

I bought it from www.pearsonitcertification.com/ but if the site is not available outside USA then try amazon.com

If you don't mind answering, what are the PBQ's that you encountered in the exam? No need to elaborate I just want to know the topics I should study more in the Performance Based Questions.

Nmap was main focus of the exam & overall MCQs were quizzed on tools, like which tool is best for what task etc

Why did you choose taking the exam when you never passed any of the 4 last attempts? 8:20-30 ish mark in the video. I am also studying for the PenTest+, I completed the whole PenTest+ on THM (top3%Thm), I play HTB on a weekly basis, I do simulation exams, but I still find it hard to pass one, my average score is about 67 questions out of the 85 and the minimum to pass would be 71 out of 85 (to score 750 min.) so you have only 14 attempts to make a mistake which can be quite hard given the fact that some scenarios are not always very very clear; So yeah, I see you never passed any of the last exams, yet you paid 409$ to take the exam, what made you do it? PS: I just saw you passed at a time with 84/90, my bad!

@@DoofYT Yes, 776 out of 750. Prep: The PT-002 Study Guide, the Skillsoft PT-002 audio-video course, the Jason Dion's simulation exams (I did take all 6 of them, 4 of them twice, first takes average of 80%, second takes 90%. Just the last one #6 simulated exam felt like PenTest+ on steroids). Alongside I am also a CTF Player, HackTheBox machines and ranked machines and TryHackMe top%3. This is the material I used to pass. The exam took me like 40 minutes to finish, and 10 more to check my answers. Over-all it felt easier than the Jason Dion's exams. I hope this helps! The best experience for this is hands-on HTB/THM in my opinion. PS: I feel like Dion's material is a lot structured for blue teaming, CySA+ too, while my exam was focused only on the attack side.
