Re: Passed the GIAC G2700 Exam Today
It's almost 100% identical to the real test (except the questions aren't the same of course). However, as soon as you click "start", at the top right corner you can choose between "incorrect", "all", or "none" (for which questions you want an explanation on). It defaults to "incorrect", so change it to "all" and you can… -
Re: ICND 1 / CCNA Exam - How to pass?
Yeah, here's the link to our learning paths, but it looks like it's locked behind the free trial page, so you'll have to create an account in order to view it. I'll whip up a list of all of our learning paths, and each learning path has anywhere from a handful to a couple dozen courses. We're still working on adding a… -
Re: Decisions
There's a bunch of people that would love to be able to say that! :D The CCNP is more marketable since most employers don't want someone to learn security on the job on their live network. Without experience, the CCSP by itself isn't that useful for finding a job. I'd usually say to get the Firewall Specialist Cert and try… -
Re: Sitting SNRS in an Hour
Well, I nailed it. This was a tough exam for me, though. In the realm of Cisco, I am weakest with routers as my focus has been PIX/ASA and switching for the past eight years. That being said, many of the concepts were the same, it was just changes in configurations syntax, which were minimal. I have to say that after IINS… -
Re: Free/Reduced Certifications - Free/Reduced Training 2014 Edition
Another great reason to become an IEEE member. I was amazed at all the learning materials/tools available. I just finished some labs on security and CEH - pretty damn good (Skillsoft courses)! Happy New Year! We’re here to help with those New Year’s resolutions. There’s so much to do, accomplish, and access as part of your… -
Re: Advice on certification path...
Hi, The CISSP works the other way around. You're supposed to get the experience and knowledge under your best FIRST, then sit the exam. 1. Do you really expect to pass the CISSP with little to no security experience? People who have years of experience often struggle with this exam. You will have questions thrown at you… -
Re: How to breaks / snacks /drinks work for the Cissp?
I took my test yesterday and passed. There are no "official" breaks, you can take one (or more), but the timer keeps on running. The proctor checks you in and out via palm scans. I had to resubmit to the self pat down and glasses check upon entering again.. luckily I'd thought to just wear something comfortable.. yoga… -
Re: Randomly Selected for Audit for the CISSP
Surprisingly, the EC-Council Eligibility Verification went butter smooth. Here are the timelines: July 7 @ 4:09PM - I sent EC-Council my application form, resume and government ID scan. I asked to verify that my form was filled out correctly before I paid the $100 fee. July 7 @ 8:01PM - Got a response from them that form… -
Re: upgrading my lab
Honestly, I think it depends on what you are actually running in your lab. If you are just going to be running a couple VM's that will largely be idle, you might be alright. Obviously in a virtual environment memory overhead is a (usually) a bigger deal than CPU contention. A single core is pretty slow . . but you might be… -
Re: IT Security Certs Questions
Get some networking experience and Cisco security certs (CCNA/P:Security). Most network security pros start in network admin/engineering and specialize in security. You have to have a good understanding of networking, not just in theory but in practical application in live environments, to be a network security pro. In the…
