Are many instructors seeing students go for CySA+ without first completing Security+? Are training organizations suggesting or requiring that students take Security+ before CySA+?
Recommended Experience | Network+, Security+ or equivalent knowledge. |
Agree, mainly for those who are just starting their career pathRealistically, students should earn the following certs in the following order:
ITF+
A+
Net+
Sec+
CySA+
They can theoretically skip some of those certifications if they have the equivalent knowledge or experience. The biggest problem is that many students do not have that equivalent knowledge or experience, and they struggle as a result. Unfortunately, there is no way to enforce the prerequisites because they are recommended not required.
Pretty much so. Early in the career, entry level certifications are valuable. On a more advanced level, that knowledge is taken for granted.Agree, mainly for those who are just starting their career path
I've made it a policy in my own life that every certification is valuable to a professional. Every single one.Pretty much so. Early in the career, entry level certifications are valuable. On a more advanced level, that knowledge is taken for granted.
