CompTIA SecOT+ Beta Exam

[precious]

Another super impressive challenge, this is not Information Technology (IT), this is Operational Technology (OT)… the force behind giant machines, power plants, factories, and trains, where code doesn’t just process data, it moves the real world.

As part of the CompTIA Instructor Network (CIN), I am excited to see CompTIA stepping into this space with the SecOT+ (SO1-001). This is not just another certification, it’s focused on securing systems where cyber incidents have physical consequences.

What is interesting is the weed-out questions for qualifying to take the exam. I teach this as part of the curriculum, plus if you are in the CIN, you are trainers, so not sure why that wasn't an option. Not a problem, I will catch the TTT when it drops.

Ooh! I can see where you are coming from. The qualification questions for beta exams can sometimes be a bit rigid, even for those of us actively teaching the material. You would expect CIN instructors to be a natural fit without much filtering, but I think CompTIA is trying to balance a mix of real-world practitioners and different experience levels for exam validation.

That said, the TTT will definitely be the more structured path for us as trainers, so looking forward to that as well.
