    CloudNetX draft objectives--thoughts?

    Since they are putting an X at the end of the name, I think it will be the most advanced certification in that track :rolleyes:.

    Changing email address/login...

    What they should have done is: 1. Create a new email domain. 2. Create aliases for all mailboxes in the new domain. 3. For all users, make the alias email addresses the users' new primary. For example. Suppose you work for abc.com and they change their name to def.com. 1. All users access...

    Master Level Certifications and Training

    I'd say they are trying to further leverage the word "Security." I agree...CompTIA will have a lot of work updating the CASP+ brand/requirement to SecurityX.

    Why is there a new version of Security+?

    The newness will come in the form of new certifications. For example, somebody may write a book on AI and try offering certifications on AI. It will be a completely new certification and revenue stream for whomever can publish current curriculum and exams. That of course will be the challenge...

    Why is there a new version of Security+?

    Three years is too aggressive IMO. I am training Security+ v6 and taking the Security+ v7 Train the Trainer. More than 80% of the content is the same.

    How would ISACA and the others validate work history for someone who is self-employed?

    Excellent, and well done, JLyon. I wish all test takers would mark the tougher questions and return to them at the end, time permitting.

    Certification Magazine Annual Salary Survey

    Done with the survey. Only one question mentioned Taylor Swift. Hmmm.

    Validating work experience is a tall order. Those of us who are self-employed can generate whatever title and work experience/duration we choose. CompTIA should stick with candidate honesty. Also, the underwriting process can become so aggressive that candidates take their $$ elsewhere.

    Help- Filling out Virtual Submission Forms, and....

    Seeing that the CTT is sunsetting this year, hiring managers will not view it as criteria when making the hiring decision. We're better off making 3-minute YouTube videos on cybersecurity concepts. May I suggest a) CIA triad, b) digital signatures and c) Nmap.

    Help- Filling out Virtual Submission Forms, and....

    Who is the entity asking for a 6 digit number? This may be the right answer to the wrong question, but...you can get your COMPTIA ID after successfully logging in at https://login.comptia.org/. You can also find it on a printed exam certificate. Mine starts with COMP then has 12 digits.

    Where is the demand for CASP+? While I realize it is the most advanced exam, I do not see many instructors discussing presenting the curriculum here. What am I missing?

    During CertMaster Session 2 today, I said I would post my HASH video here. The file is too big. Download from my OneDrive at https://1drv.ms/u/s!AjHHnHZd4hCAiY04K21GTRiWVVRWYQ?e=IIfWOd.

    Security+ SY0-701

    Someone to do a compare and contrast between Testout and CertMaster. They can grab some sample topics like: 1. The CIA triad 2. Wireshark 3. Public and private keys.

    TTT Soap Box: Breaking the Ice!

    I ask "What is your compelling WHY in taking this class?" Students need some time to digest the question and then issue a response. Patience is a virtue on this one.
