Hi Eddie,

I am currently preparing for the CompTIA Security+ certification and have extensive experience in cybersecurity and IT system administration. While this will be my first CompTIA certification, I have been actively teaching cybersecurity as an instructor and creating educational content through my YouTube channel, Tun’Sec. Additionally, I have several years of experience as a Security Analyst and Information Security System Administrator, working with SIEM solutions, vulnerability detection, incident response, and compliance. I am passionate about guiding learners in their IT and cybersecurity journeys.

Looking forward to your thoughts!

Hello,
Has anyone experienced an issue with the Labs after completing them, where they can access them no more?
They are not yet expired but also not available on the portal

ashows · 2025-02-10T13:56:04-0600

I have not yet received mine either.

Wonderfully waiting for it.

In May 2024, CompTIA announced a roadmap of AI offerings. AI Essentials was released in the CompTIA store last week.

CompTIA announces AI product roadmap expansion covering six domains

www.comptia.org

I have no idea what the timeline is for the remainder of the releases.

It's great CompTIA is expanding into AI security, given how AI is being integrated into cybersecurity... We see attackers using AI to automate phishing attacks, for example last year, a finance employee was fooled into wiring millions of dollars after receiving a fake video call that looked and sounded exactly like their CEO.... This is too concerning, hopefully SecAI+ covers defending against these kinds of threats.

I didn't see a forum for this cert yet, so posting here instead.

CompTIA has posted pre-draft objectives for a new cert: CompTIA SecAI+. Anyone seen these yet? Thoughts? I'm definitely interested and looking forward to this one.

CompTIA Exam Objectives Under Development

CompTIA posts exam objectives that are under development to inform the public about the drafted changes currently under consideration for new and/or refreshed certification exams.

GNS3 is my advice, but setup will not be easy, especially for beginners. The other option is to go for a cloud environment, but it will cost.

Best,

Fantastic!

Great info, especially regarding CEUs applicable to Cloud+. Thanks everyone.

Just to note that this method won't renew certs that are not part of the cyber and core tracks. So if you have Cloud+, for example, you either need CEUs and current member fees or take the updated exam.

/r

Passing SecurityX provides 25 CEUs for Cloud+. Passing CySA+ or passing PenTest+ provides 33 CEUs for Cloud+. Cloud+ only requires 50 CEUs for renewal.

Rick Butler · Sunday at 2:19 PM

This is a go-live week for us adopting Anthology Student, so I will probably end up watching these On-Demand - if I survive the rollout that is...LOL /r

The fastest way to renew your CySA+ is to take the most current version, assuming you don't already have it, or pass the SecurityX exam, which renews all of the certifications you mentioned.

Try Cisco’s GNS3 or Cisco CML as they have pre-configured templates for fast demo... Packet tracer short custom

Cisco does not make or own GNS3.

@Tom.G : unless you're going to actually go out and buy all the hardware, you will need some simulator. That can be Packet Tracer, it can be GNS3, it could be EveNG.

All simulators will have a learning curve.

If you don't want a simulator, either buy all the hardware or find another trainer who's willing to buy and run the hardware to provide a lab as a service. Yes, these latter also exist.

CompTIA is reworking what used to be the "partner portal". I believe the new changes will have an updated list of training partners. We should see changes soon, from what I hear.

Thanks for the update!

Reason why I asked is because a certain YouTuber was known to have exam dumps or copyrighted materials on their channel, but at the same time claims to be CompTIA authorized partner. I wanted to doublecheck a few things.

Hello @Fonseca, I can take a look into this for you. There are several reasons you may not have received a voucher. I will DM you in I have any questions.

Hi Stephen
Can you also advise what happened as well with me. I attended the Cloud+ and Tech+ series last year but haven't received my vouchers.

adminsami2025 · Sunday at 2:19 AM

Hi,

Is this role filled? If it is still open let me know, I would love to do that.

Hi Ronald,

Thank you! I'll send you a link to setup an interview.

Hi Eddie,

I am currently doing "CIN TTT Series: PenTest+ PT0-003" training and technically I have no Comptia certs at the moment as it will be my first to start. However I am an authorized trainer for almost similar courses with Cisco Networking Academy which are not limited to: CCNA, Cybersecurity Associate, CCNP ENCOR, CCNP ENARSI, Linux, Network Security & Cybersecurity essentials to highlight. I have been training since 2008, may I be considered for the instructor role for similar subjects. I have greater experience & knowledge.

Thanks

Gregory Childers · Sunday at 12:17 AM

If you have those four and they are all still active, you only have to renew the CySA+ and it will cascade down and renew the others. CySA+ requires 60 CEUs in a three-year span in order to renew the cert.

The fastest way to renew your CySA+ is to take the most current version, assuming you don't already have it, or pass the SecurityX exam, which renews all of the certifications you mentioned.

Steve Linthicum · Saturday at 7:08 PM

If you would like I can provide access to a N10-009 course that I've developed that provides access to free resources available on the Internet. Email me at [email protected]

Stan Pieklo · Saturday at 5:52 PM

This will be a good webinar to watch!
