CySA+ Beta Exam

Looks like CompTIA is releasing the beta exam for the next version of the CySA+ certification on 11 Oct 19. Hopefully it is as fun as the first beta was.

Also don't see CySA+ beta in Certmetrics exam history. Do see it in and other Beta exams in CompTIA Pearson Vue history.

Results posted. At least in the Pearson-Vue site (not updated on Certmetrics yet). So, mine doesn't say Taken anymore. It now says PASSED!

Whohoo! Not the best (768 with a 750 passing level), but it's a pass!

Nice, pass here as well!

Passed, but it was close. Congrats y'all!

Woo! barely passed this one...I had a pretty long losing streak for a couple years.

CySA+ beta = Passed barely
CySA+ 001 = Failed w/730
CySA+ 001 = Failed w/715
Linux+ beta = Failed horribly
CEH v10 #2 = Failed 63%
Pentest+ beta = Failed horribly
CEH v10 = Failed 69%

On Pearson Vue website, Dashboard - View score reports

I (barely) passed the CySA+ beta with a 764.

Thank goodness--I'm the manager of a Blue Team and it would have been embarrassing to have failed!

From the PearsonVue CompTIA dashboard, click the View Score Reports link in the My Account menu in the upper right area of the page and then click the View button to see your exam score report.

Awwww yea! I passed! 801 points scored! Don't know what the max was, but a pass was at 750, so I'm happy

Congratulations to everyone who passed! And many thanks to CompTIA for yet another fun Beta!

Jackpot! I scored a 777. Also passed the GCIP exam so it was a really good day overall.

Congrats to those who passed! Now if I can just get CompTIA to update the website to show that I've been added to the CSTAC...

scaredoftests

Congrats to everyone who took the beta exam pass or fail. There is no substitute for the experience of sitting for the exam or the knowledge of the material. I reviewed the score report page and passed by the skin of my teeth ! 757/900

Another pass here, as well.

Your CySA+ info should now be in your Certmetrics dashboard.

What happens now? This is my first CompTIA Beta. I see the pass in history, but nothing new in fulfillment, transcript, or Acclaim.

FluffyBunny

Well, by now you should have probably already received the printed diploma and membership card. Mine came in the mail a week or three ago. If it hasn't come through, in the very least you should be able to login to the CompTIA portal and download the PDF certificate.

I recall seeing on my CompTIA profile that I had to verify my address info. Be sure to do that if you haven't rec'd your cert packet from them.

Thanks y'all have changed my email address since my last cert. Went ahead and opened a ticket and should get this resolved. Thanks again!

Reply from CompTIA. This is ok as I have kits for CSA+/CySA+ (CS0-001).

Good Afternoon,

I am happy to assist you with this.

You met your CE requirements April 2019 and your new expiration date is now September 2024. Your new CE cycle is September 2021 - September 2024.

You took the CS0-002 December 2019 which is outside your CE cycle, therefore you will not receive a new certification kit.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or if I can be of any additional help. If this fully resolves your issue, just reply and let me know and I'll be glad to mark the ticket Solved for you.

Take good care!

There is a "Fulfillment" tab on your www.certmetrics.com/comptia/ page that will indicate when your cert was shipped. Mine was shipped on May 7th to my work address.

The downloadable PDF cert will have to do for me until I can get back into the building--in September.
