Re: is there any prerequesition for Security+?
CompTIA recommends that you have A+ and Network+, or equivalent experience. Seeing as how you've already got your CCNA, I don't think you'll have any trouble with the networking concepts. From my experience with the Security+ exam, I kind of wish that I had done CCNA and the MCSA exams (70-270, 70-290, 70-291) before I… -
Re: Getting a REAL IT job?
Welcome to TE! First off, what is your end goal? Where do you see yourself in 5-10 years? What part of IT interests you the most? Once you have answered those questions for yourself, the cert direction can then be unveiled. What is your current situation? Are you switching from another field? Are you a student? Getting the… -
Re: CCNA > KGhaleon
Well, yeah, but in one sense, he's doing that by asking here. Actually, this is the impression I got. . . that the 640-801 "composite" was designed for people who had little exposure to Cisco, didn't want to sit through the Academy, and were in a hurry to wrap their cert. Everything I've read about the dual-exam suggests… -
Re: Real Job
My first job was a service desk analyst providing remote first (and eventually second) line support for bespoke software, Windows XP, SQL Server, desktop, laptops, printers and some LAN networking. I did that for a year before moving into a more desk side type support role. In terms of expectations, initially they wanted… -
Re: WGU BS:IT/Software (starting Nov. 1st 2013)
Nailed BOV1, 95%. Perl is scheduled for next Thursday. I expect it to be a bit tougher than Javascript, so I gave myself a whole week. If I'm not ready, I'll just reschedule, but it should be enough time. CIW materials are very poorly written, but I've found that if you just power through the reading, they give you… -
Re: 3 hours till Testing, 640-822...
I am BEYOND happy to report that I have accomplished the ICND1 and a PROUD owner of the CCENT Cert. :DScored a 950/1000 with 30+ minutes to spare. Lol I wasn't really nervous until I was sitting in that test seat and I could feel my heart pounding especially when I realized all your answers are Final and they don't give… -
Re: Passed the Network + Exam on Wednesday.
it's so hard to choose. I really want the MCSA:2008 cert before it expires in 6 months. I've already read those books recently and only in the past month did I focus heavily on the A+ and Net+ material once I decided I was taking vacation for this week a month ago I started re-reading the Comptia book and here I am. I do… -
Re: Can someone explain "lattice" as it relates to MAC?
One way of viewing this is as a ladder where each rung of the ladder represents a different security level such as private, confidential, secret, and so on. The area between the rungs are identified as security boundaries. Data is assigned a label based on the security boundary where it's located. Users are also assigned… -
Re: CCENT or CCNA?
Hey! I just took the Net+ less than a year ago and just finished up my CCENT in the last week. I can tell you there are some major differences between the two exams. Cisco seems to be more practical with simulations and drag and drops wereas comptia is more like all mulitple choice questions. I have said it a lot on here,… -
Re: Registry and a speech at school
registry isn't a really heavy topic...but if you're target audience is folks who aren't computer "savvy" then just leave out the technical jargon and make some analogies about what it is that it's doing, rather than the ins & outs of how it works. I like the filing cabinet reference. My first thought was that it's like a…
