Security+ 601 vs 701 Break down

[Mark Anthony Germanos]

It is good that CompTIA is going out of their way to retain exam integrity. NDAs are only strong when all parties agree to honor them. Secrets have to remain secrets. Heck, even our Supreme Court had a leak back in 2022. Is CompTIA's security better than the Supreme Courts? Hopefully...yes. We can show the world what integrity is and how you honor NDAs.

I'm not sure I completely agree here. Yes, the end result is training students to have the skills to be in the workforce and to validate those skills through certification.
....
So, watchers and readers of this thread, I entreat you to answer this question for yourselves. It think the only thing that CompTIA can do is to, best effort possible, make sure that those aims align, because if they get out of alignment, we have a real problem.

Short Version: All are in the Business to make Money. More or less, slower or faster.
CompTIA is the one creating the Content, Material, Exam and Marketing.
Trainers, Training Centers, Book Authors are offering to get along.
Students to get to the better paid jobs...
None is making it for Free
But CompTIA sets their Rules, which is ok..

But even in College, University, the First goal is: pass the Test at the End..How ever that is measured.

Aslong there is money in the Game, some try to find the Shortcut.

Passing the test is not the endgame. The endgame is learning new information and skills that you can apply in real life.
