On April 16, a foundational piece of the world’s cybersecurity infrastructure may quietly grind to a halt. MITRE’s stewardship of the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures program—a backbone of coordinated vulnerability disclosure for more than two decades—is facing an uncertain future as its...

I passed the ISACA CISM exam and renewed my CASP+/SecurityX. https://www.comptia.org/continuing-education/renewothers/renewing-casp A year after I passed the CISM, I passed the ISC2 CISSP. Technically, I could use it to renew both my CISM and SecurityX certifications, since I earned them...

My A+ and Network+ had expiration dates in 2028. This was due to my earning the CASP+ and then renewing it by passing the ISACA CISM. I passed the fifth version of Network+, which extended my Net+ and A+ until 2031. My first Network+ certification was in 2005. At this point, I don't really...

The training program was located at this site for political and funding reasons. Typically, they would conduct this cohort in Arkansas at a base that has the correct setup and has done it for years. This particular year, it was relocated to Virginia Beach because some high-up muckety muck...

The topic has never come up in class, with one exception. I was teaching PenTest+ at a military base as part of program of cybersecurity training. Other trainers were teaching CySA+ and other cybersecurity courses. The program was going to end with some blue team/red team exercises. The...

CompTIA does not have the next version of Project+ on their road map yet, so I doubt you will see it until at least 2026.

Seriously? I haven't done any labs in Security+ in almost 10 years, much less a cyber range. I tell the students the labs are there if they want to do them. They can reinforce the lecture. But they're certainly not required to pass the exams because CompTIA exams do not test for any specific...

I use a Windows 11 PC and a Samsung Galaxy Android phone and I've never had a single problem ever.

It's rare for anyone to get a perfect score because many of the questions are tricky.

This post is in the wrong forum. This is a forum for certifications. The job board is located here: https://cin.comptia.org/forums/job-board.31/

People use that same logic for buying lottery tickets, even though the math doesn't support it.

I've taken dozens on online exams using OnVue since the pandemic and I love it. The last exam I had to take at a Pearson Vue testing center was my CISSP in October 2023, because ISC2 doesn't offer online exams. My home office is set up for virtual training, and it's the perfect testing...

So their plan for increasing profit is entering an overly saturated market where a lot of the content is more mature? Or in some cases, absolutely free?

I still don't see anything in the Essentials series that isn't offered elsewhere by other vendors.

No, it's still 30 CEUs. The web site is in desperate need of an update. There is a lot of outdated information, as well as inaccurate or incomplete information still on the site.

I can do LOOKUP, HLOOKUP, VLOOKUP, XLOOKUP, MATCH functions, and many more. I can do Pivot Tables and Pivot Charts. I can establish ODBC links and can connect to Azure services. I can write VBA macros and have most of the object model memorized. I've been using Excel since 1995 and have...

I must be a dissenting voice on this series. I don't see any value in the Essentials series at all. They lead to a "CompCert" from a 30-minute test through Certmaster. The CompCert will have no standing in the industry. The content would be better served through a series of webinars. Other...

I just received the announcement today. The CloudNetX cert finally showed up in my Certmetrics account. It also shows an entry in the fulfillment table so they can mail me my paper certification. And I received my Credly badge. I'd ask what caused the delay, but no one at CompTIA seems to...
