Hello,
I wanted to share the process I went through to recently pass (770) the Security + exam.
- Read the CompTIA Security+ All-in-One Exam Guide, Fourth Edition (Exam SY0-401) and took all Chapter Review tests
- Re-read chapters I scored poorly in, and re-took the Chapter Review tests
- Used the DVD with the book to build practice tests around challenging chapters and/or exam knowledge domain content
- Completed CertMaster for Security + and reviewed challenging areas, reviewed answers I guessed correctly on to know why it was right
- Used this forum to learn from other professional's experiences and take the practice tests for ports and Security +
For those interested I have a background in Datacenter management and operations. I do not have a lot of experience as a network or system administrator. I am working towards a more focused career in IT Security.
Thanks again for the content on this site and good luck to any of you working towards this certification!
