Results for Security+ due
|
|
|
| This is the week CompTIA/Galton will post pass/fail to the beta testers (according to private CompTIA chats).
You will need have in hand a copy of the output from taking a CompTIA test (and my experiments reveal that tests taken before 1998 are not in the database). You will need to enter things like Candidite ID, Test Center Site Code, day of exam, unique test #, etc....
All you will get on the basic level is to see if you achieved a Certification. You must dig for pass/fail data. No details on your score, pass score, etc....
The test results will begin mailing early Dec. The test should go live a few days after the mailing of results is complete.
The long wait is almost over.

Not too sure I'll have time to stay on that track.
Getting ready to turn up active directory on our network as wel as change ISP's,
going from 7 class c's to a /27 subnet and a /28 subnet on another provider, good thing we've been pulling most of our public IP's out of service for the last 3 years, re-addressing our internal network pulling our exchange 5.5 in from our DMZ into our lan and going to exchange 2000, installing fiber plants in 2 buildings and moving services to one of them.
Along with the ISP change we have over 80 web sites, email servers and 2 DNS servers that we will have to keep in service while the IP change over is made,
which in itself is not trivial.
All this while supportting our 36 site WAN
With about 120 video conferences a week.
So I think I'll postpone CISSP for awhile  | |

| Guys can you tell me what materials do you use to be prepare for the security+ exam.
Thanks | |
|
| At the moment, there is only one 'book' published on Security+, specifically. It is an E-book (but you can print it) and it is free. Http://www.alphageekproductions.com It is what most of us here used....
Other books will be out anywhere from 1 Dec to March 2003. | |

| HI all:
Just received my results, I passed.
Congratulations to everyone who passed the beta! | |
|
| First, A huge congrats! The pain of a beta paid off in $$ for you! Helen reported to me that CompTIA members must pay about $190, and non-member $225. for the final test.
90 minutes and 100 questions, 784 (on a scale of 100-900) makes it the toughest CompTIA test to date.
Reports coming in indicate a mix of data being reported. Did your report indicate % of correct answers by catagory or other details? | |

| I used the alphageek guide that TCAT and company wrote.
I also used an online version of the exam cram CISSP guide and "how to hack proof your network" and some cisco press security books.
As far as the test goes the alphageek maps to the test objectives more than any other thing I listed.
Not to mention it is compatible with pocket acrobat so I can read it almost anywhere on my pocket PC "an Ipaq 3850" | |

| My score report indicates that specific scores will not be released, only notification of pass or fail will be provided. | |
