New things on 501 that weren't on 401

BUGFREE

I had been studying for the 401, but for the past several months I had a family emergency come up and was unable to take the test. I am starting to study for the 501, but I would like to focus on the stuff I haven't studied. Is there a good resource that focuses on the new things in the 501?

I would think Darril Gibson's online resources...

The SY0-401 and SY0-501 look like night and day as far as their objectives go. It looks like they went in a completely different direction with the exam this time. You can see all of the old objectives vs the new ones here:

That being said, I think most resources have upgraded to the new 501 objectives. I used Professor Messer and Darril Gibson when I took the test last year and I'd highly recommend both of them.

It looks like the same there are a few changes for example they added:
1.3 Explain threat actor types and attributes.

Thanks. I will print out the 501 objectives and cross of the stuff I know and go from there.
