Good day all,

Newbridge Graduate Institute is looking for someone to teach Security+ and Cloud+ in our Highveld, Centurion campus (South Africa)

Either part time or full time basis, face to face contact lessons. Class hours are from 8am to 12pm Monday to thursday.

If interested or you know of someone, may you please send me your CV on [email protected] and cc' [email protected].

Thank you so much.

Hello CINers,
Please guide me to be able to access the documents for Network+ (009) TTT. I have accessed into Certmaster from Testout. But I could not see the places to access them.

Hello,

I previously used the following link to access the CASP+ CAS-003 TTT series:
https://gateway.on24.com/wcc/eh/1119137/category/8762/casp-ttt/

Recently, I tried to access it and received an error message saying, "This page no longer exists." Is there a way for me to access this series? Although it was a previous version, I found some videos particularly helpful and would like to refer to them.

Thank you,
Sukanya

Point of note: for those who already have TestOut accounts and courses - the Network+ Certmaster Perform is likely included if Network+ has previously been one of your courses. I had an early sneak peek earlier this year when a few lessons became available. As an instructor who has used TestOut for 5+ years, my primary reason was the cloud-based simulations to use as support for my teaching; the learners could work on them anytime and redo them at will. I am delighted with the updated simulations in CertMaster Perform. Love the change of language from quiz to review. Well done on the Network+ update.

Hello,


I hope someone can help me. I'm having issue in registering the account for TTT testout labs.
Here is my issue.

I have issues on how to access CerMaster Platform for instructions.

It is very interesting and impactful.

I have a question. Does anyone have experience with how to get help from Comptia support regarding the store? I ordered Official CompTIA Student Guide eBook on Friday and still haven't received the codes. No emails are entitled to a response up to two working days. The training has started and the students have nothing to learn from.

Good day!

Need your input on the question from the SY0-701 Lab re: Using containers. The question is, "How do you enter a container session for 'MyContainer'"?

I understand that a container needs to be started first, before you exec it hence, docker start is the answer



However, there was no premise that was stated in the question, so many of the students thought that the answer is docker exec - based on the laboratory instructions.



Some may argue that the keyword at the end should be cmd however, powershell can actually be used in docker in real life scenario.

What do you think?

I can't believe nobody posted this on CIN yet.

Why Should I Participate?​

This competition represents a chance to become the face of the CompTIA brand across a number of platforms including CompTIA CertMaster learning products, live streaming to high schools lacking qualified instructors, pre-recorded content available on multiple social platforms, and more!

Well, ?

Hello,
When will the Tech+ Instructor Resources be available to create Fall courses? I had 5/24 on my calendar but can't find anything under Resources. Thanks in advance!

Hi All. I have been in the IT field for over 20 years and in different industries. I've never officially trained anybody aside from colleagues and sometimes hold tips and tricks inhouse. I hold a Network+ cert, as well as a few Microsoft certifications, including an Microsoft Certified Trainer. I've always wanted to be an instructor in IT and now that I have my MCT I would like to begin part time. So aside from having my certifications, How can I get an opportunity to instruct a class such as Network+ or A+ ?

I appreciate any assistance, or opportunities you may have.

Thanks.

I'm not certain of the validity of this document, but it appears that the new version of Cloud+ will go live on July 16, 2024. No idea about the timeline for the beta exam scores.

I am seeking your valued advice and insights regarding a matter related to teaching CompTIA courses.

As an experienced instructor who holds relevant certifications such as CompTIA Security+, PenTest+, and CySA+, I am wondering if it is necessary for me to obtain the CompTIA Tech+ certification to formally teach courses like CompTIA Security+, PenTest+, or CySA+.

For all those Security+ or security interested instructors out there...

Law enforcement authorities in the US and Europe recently announced the seizure of data attributed to the Lockbit ransomware team. The seized data included thousands of references to the crypto keys generated to encrypt victims data. You can read about this disclosure from the FBI or read reporting by Ars Technica. If you were or know of a ransomware victim you can submit a form here (at ic3.gov) and receive assistance ranging from the key used to encrypt the data to technical assistance decrypting the data. This form does ask for information about the victim. I'm told that not all of the fields are required to be completed. If the victim has the original ransom demand message there is information included there that can be used to identify the decryption key. If that message isn't available an encrypted file can be submitted for analysis.

The Lockbit team is believed to be made up of residents of Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. Lockbit-based ransomware is a particularly interesting malware strain in that new versions were compiled so that different keys were used for different victims; and the original team created an 'associate program' where others could 'license' the Lockbit ransomware.

Finally, CompTIA Network+ N10-009 Train-The-Trainer (TTT) is here...

Join the CompTIA Instructor Network and special guest Don Tilley as he leads the Network+ TTT series using the CompTIA CertMaster Perform that includes Learning with Simulations, Exam Prep, and Live VM Labs.

CertMaster Perform is part of the release of the CompTIA Network+ CertMaster Curriculum, now available.

Don will cover the exam objectives and provide hands-on examples as you strengthen your computer networking skills. We will discuss how to cover the content with students and suggest various labs to let students gain hands-on experience as they prepare for certification.
The Network+ exam verifies you have the knowledge and skills required to:

• Explain basic networking concepts
• Understand routing technologies
• Monitor and optimize networks to ensure business continuity.
• Understand security concepts and network attacks
• Explain the troubleshooting methodology and address common issues related to networking

Save My Seat

So, a big thanks to CompTIA.

Hello, can I ask if the CTT certificate has now changed to Tech+?
So how do I get Tech+ since I don't know where to register?
Please assist, thank you very much.

In the new Cloud+ objectives (as posted on CompTIA's draft page a few weeks ago), under the IAM objective, there's an item for CLI spelled out as Common Language Infrastructure. While I know that's a real thing (in context of .NET), I can't see how it's directly related to IAM. Any thoughts? Or is this an error and it should actually be command line interface (which makes more sense to me)?

Will the Tech+ be like the ITF+ (and Cloud Essentials) in the exam can be proctored by a teacher at a high school campus versus at a testing center?

I already know that like the ITF+, there will be no maintenance requirements (no three-year cycle) for the Tech+.

It would be nice to sign up my new public high school as a CompTIA Testing Center so that we could test in-house for certifications besides the ITF+.

Would we be required to allow anyone to sign up and test at our school? I don't think we can do that as a public school.

Any CINners planning on attending the AFCEA TechNet Cyber conference this month in Baltimore, MD? I hope to see some folks there! Come join us for two workshops on Tuesday June 25th! Dr. James Stanger will host a panel discussing how to protect AI platforms. I will host a session about the new releases for Network+ and Cloud+ discussing resources to help instructors prepare to offer the course.

If you are not able to attend live, we will be live-streaming the sessions through ON24. Check out the descriptions and registration links below. Looking forward to seeing some folks at the event!
