Re: Advice needed at the beginning of my CISSP journey
I'm not sure what test was taken, but the CISSP is most certainly about concepts. Understanding how the BCP and DRP flow is needed as well as the listed steps. The CISSP is not a straight out "fire is hot" test, it is a mixture of "fire is hot" and understanding the how a fire is started. It is also not a truly technical… -
Re: How to study for cisa a week before exam?
My approach has been reading the manual and doing the database questions daily. I started reading the manual in January and am currently going through it for a third time. I began with the database in February and am scoring 80-90%. I want to take the exam soon so I am basically focusing on the Missed Last Time Seen and… -
Re: Good link to all security-related certs?
I'm working on a page that will list those, including a short description and link to their 'home pages'. Anyway, in short: - (ISC)2 www.isc2.com for SSCP and CISSP - www.eccouncil.org for CEH and CHFI - www.cisco.com for CCSP and CCIE Security - www.Checkpoint.com for CCSA and CCSE - www.rsasecurity.com/node.asp?id=1261… -
Re: Mile2 Certification Opportunity
So, I was scrolling through the course work yesterday and there is a lot of decent information contained in the material. However, the main thing I was looking forwards to, the labs, are NOT included in the promotion; access to their "cyber range" is $100 for a week, $200 for 3 weeks. Also, I don't know much about the FBI… -
Re: CASP after CISSP?
First congrats on passing your CISSP, I know the feeling. Considering you passed your CISSP, and have a CISA cert, I wouldn't waste time with CASP, it doesn't add much value especially with your credentials. GIAC is a good path but as you pointed out SANS courses are expensive (though not actually required to take the exam… -
Re: Failed 103 again yesterday
Sorry to hear it man, but don't be hard on yourself about it honestly. I have passed CISSP, CISM and now CISA easily and on the first go. It took me 3 times for the lowly CEH. Missed it by 1 point twice. Like you, I was in the 80s on practice exams. Not sure what the hangup was. I can tell you right now that I would never… -
Re: eCPPT STARTS TODAY
I have PTPv4 and I think 4 months is doable, 2 would be a tough stretch, but depends on how many hours a day and overall in a week you can put towards it. I still keep an eye on the Slack group so if you and Supasecuritybro go back to working on it I'll drop in there. I'll be going back to pentesting studies mid-late… -
Re: ISACA finally going CBT!
Yea I saw a thread here on this about a month ago, but I am very happy they went that route. I've been trying to knock out the CISM for the past 2+ years but every single time there was a conflict with the test date and I had to either defer or cancel. Now I can schedule it whenever is convenient for me. And oh yea,… -
Re: Where have all the CISSP test takers gone?
A certification is always going to have an increase in volume for those that are certified. They are especially going to have an influx when it's required by DoD for almost any position that's worth a decent amount of money in the IT world. The reason CISM (probably an easier certification from what I've read) doesn't have… -
Re: Does anyone else have Problems with FOCUSING During Cert Studies?
Yup, it's like you're peeking into my office. Oh it was bad doing the CISM QAE DB. I would answer a few questions and want to jump into another tab and go check this or that. Similar to Iris, I was diagnosed with ADD at a very young age. Took myself off meds at 12 years of age and self managed since. Not going to lie, it's…
