I have just posted about the upcoming A+ exams this Spring 2025! :D I'll join the TTT sessions.

Thank you. I share the same sentiments. If someone got a question, the community is here to support but please try to at least Google it out, or in today's time, use an AI tool if needed be. Anyway, I'm just glad to see this thread @Rick Butler Just in time for me to know that there's a TTT...

From Task Manager > check the startup tab, see what applications are running. It is possible that there is a startup task that requires firefox to run, i.e. check for updates.

oh look at that, surprise! I guess the new owners realized that books can still make a profit. 😆

Here's the response from Copilot: Both Chrome and Edge offer robust security features that you can configure for enhanced protection. Here's a breakdown of some key security features in each browser: Google Chrome Safe Browsing: Protects you from dangerous websites, downloads, and extensions...

I echo the query. I've been waiting for the TTT on Pentest+ too. (y) Glad to hear that it is happening early next year. (Jan 2025)

Yes, they are in the exam objectives. It may be best for you to have a copy of the learning objectives for each cert.

I understand your sentiment, and I am with you. I am not with CompTIA, nor did I write the question. I only tried to share my thoughts to possibly give a sensical response to your query. Just my two cents.

There was a similar thread asking about browsers before https://cin.comptia.org/threads/instructor-toolbox-poll-what-browser.1684/#post-15165 To which I answered: yes, Brave is a browser. :p

I agree. FDE (full disk encryption) is good until you either need to migrate to another disk, or change motherboard. In the recent Crowdstrike incident, the hardest to resolve were the computers/systems that had BitLocker on.

... and CySA+ too! For training on the fundamentals of the ATT&CK framework, I recommend the playlist from MITRE Deep Dive. See link:

Glad to help. 😊 Transmissions of encrypted email from one platform to another is typically okay, as long as both clients are capable of handling the same cipher. Personally, I've not had issues with encrypted emails between Gmail and Outlook. ProtonMail uses end-to-end encryption by default...

I also love this quote: “We are told to remember the idea and not the man. Because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten. But 400 years later, an idea can still change the world." - Alan Moore, V for Vendetta

I echo ZT - zero trust. Don't trust emails. Scan, and don't click. Don't trust the auth systems. Use MFA. Audit regularly. Don't trust the devices. Update firmware, and install patches. Don't trust the connection. Use encryption. Use VPN. Use secure connections only. etc.

I've been waiting for this! I wanted to let everyone know that I am certified in SeX, and that I am a certified SeX instructor. Oh... it's SecX. LOL
