Passed with 850
I just passed Security+ today with 850 Preparing wise I spend around 3 weeks, but I had passed SSCP like a 3 weeks ago so I new most of the stuff anyway.

Re: Do I need CASP?
The amount of holders of a particular certification doesn't really matter to me so I do not understand the motivation to know the number. How respected a cert is can vary depending on region, industry, and hiring managers personal biases. Are you making a correlation between what is respected with what is in demand?… -
