CIN is kicking off a new TTT series! This TTT series will focus on professional development around the CompTIA Compcert courses.

  • Learn what defines artificial intelligence from other types of intelligence and computing
  • Practice communicating about AI effectively
  • Explore AI tools and the ways they can support your organization
  • Craft AI prompts
  • Navigate the privacy and security concerns AI technology presents
  • Prepare for AI's effect on the future of technology

Passed SecurityX CAS-005

I didn't use any study materials. Since this was a recertification, I just went in blind and took it. I only saw a few questions on topics that weren't already covered on the previous version of the exam. And I was surprised of the ease of 3 of the 4 PBQs.

One thing I did notice about the CASP+/SecurityX exams:

I took both the CAS-004 and CAS-005 and passed them both. And in both cases, the exams had a VM question. Also in both cases, I skipped the question entirely. In neither case did it make a difference in my passing. Either the question is unscored or it counts for very little. It seems like the question has low ROI if it can be skipped and not impact the results.

I've got DataX coming up in the next month. Time to work on that one.

Passed SecurityX CAS-005

Nice. I have mine coming up later this year. Going through the CertMaster Perform material in depth to see how well it *actually* prepares a candidate to take SecurityX. I'm not entirely confident in that, as I went through the DataSys+ materials and took that exam - there were topics on the exam that did not appear in the training materials.

I've always considered there to be a disconnect between the CompTIA training materials and the actual exam, IMAO.

How can we get Institutional course access to CertMaster Security+??

Ages ago when we first joined the partner network John Mongeon was our BDM. I just emailed him for assistance. None of our instructors have access to CertMaster Security+, we are still on TestOut Security Pro. All of our other ***Pro courses are upgraded to the new CertMaster courses.
Thank you for the quick response,

Corey D.

Right. You can expect that will continue to be the case, as all of CompTIA's training material will migrate to the Perform model, as each three-year testing/update cycle.

If you are a partner, you should be able to get instructor access by reaching out to your BDM. Mr. Mongeon, according to LinkedIn, is Director of Business Development, so he should be able to route you to whomever your current BDM is.

You might also benefit from the Delivery Partner Meet-up Webinar on On24 from June 2025.

I passed the SecurityX exam this morning. I passed the CAS-004 back in April 2022.

It's a challenging, comprehensive exam. I had 88 questions. 4 PBQs and 1 VM question.
