Passed CySA+

I passed the exam yesterday with a 799 score. I really enjoyed studying for this exam and the knowledge covers a lot of what is needed in a SOC Analyst/Blue team role. I used the study guide by Mike Chapple & David Seidl and I also took Jason Dion's course on Infosec Skills.
To pass this exam, you definitely need to know how to read all kinds of logs, interpret vulnerability scan reports and configure ACLs.

    It's definitely more scenario questions than memorized type answers. CompTIA won't ask you directly what protocol runs on port 23

    Thanks Guys. It's definitely a big step up from Sec+ but it's totally worth it.
