Trent Hayes, author of AWS Security Essentials course, recently took the AWS Certified Security Specialty Beta Exam. Here's a little more in-depth about the actual exam and his experiences with it.
TLDR; Single response and multiple response questions, 180 minutes to complete roughly 70 questions. KMS & IAM were most covered, followed by CloudTrail & Config. CloudWatch Logs, S3, IAM, bucket, and object policies, differentiate between Systems Manager, Config, and Inspector (best uses). Scoring goes from 1 to 1000 with a minimum passing score of 750.
