Another Sec+ Pass
Hey guys! Hope anyone finds this useful. I passed the exam today quite easily although it was harder then expected. I took the CompTIA self-paced e-learning course, which was well designed, narrow to the point. It was defintely useful for objectives like disaster recovery, attack types, policies, tools etc. Generally, for…

896/900 pass
I was afraid of the performance based questions but they were pretty easy. The one thing I can highly suggest other than reading Darryls book is study the acronyms. I missed a question in regards to PKI. Was my fault since I didnt read the context of the question. One word threw it off.

I passed Sec+ last week. Initially, I wasn't going to post, since many have mentioned that they have passed. I reconsidered, hoping it may help someone. I studied for the test right after Net+.

Yet another happy Security+'er
Finally passed my Security+ exam yesterday afternoon. My score was 808 out of 900. I felt I was running a bit out of time after question 65, so started to rush a bit, but ended up with having three minutes left. Was a bit afraid I'd hit questions in the end where I would use a lot of time. Might also be because I'm not a…

The actual tests always feel so much different than the practice exams...but the often-repeated advice on this forum rang true - the key is fully understanding the content rather than relying so much on memorization.

After six months of studying for this cert, I finally pass the certification. I got a 896/900.

So it costs $284 to take this test. Question.
I was told by the people who setup your test appointment to contact my school regarding a voucher to re-take the test if you should need to.

Passed Security+ (My thoughts)
First off, Darril Gibson's book and Google were my only resources for preparation. I started studying Jan. 1st on and off while also completing liberal arts work at WGU.

IDS vs IPS
I'm studying for my Security+ using Darril's book (great read by the way) and I'm reading about IDSs and IPSs...I was wondering why you would install an IDS when they only detect attacks....wouldn't it make more sense to just use an IPS to detect and prevent the attack?
