And will add for context, I am wanting go down the cybersecurity path and maybe even networking of course

Well, if you consider both answers. Which one can have an immediate threat meaning which one could already be in the process of causing an incident within the organization?

Thank you for sharing your progress! I’m thrilled to hear that the video helped you out. Keep it up, and you’ll be acing those exams in no time!

Haha, sounds like a classic case of "let's just hope it goes away!" Remember, Security Plus is by the book, and most people who work in the industry have a harder time passing than people who only have theoretical knowledge. I bet you can guess why.

Motivation is like coffee-essential for starting your day! Just remember not to spill it on your keyboard!

@ 🤣🤣🤣

A solid 4/5? Sounds like you're just one step away from CySA greatness! Keep climbing that ladder!

@@Dr_KKendrick Yeah, I got 4 out of 5 correct in this episode but it's more challenging for me when I'm training using this source - CompTIA CySA+ Practice Tests, Exam CS0-003 - Wiley Books

Thank you so much! Your support means a lot to me!

@ ♥️

Ah, the classic dilemma of "better the devil you know!" Sometimes, it feels like upgrading is just trading one set of headaches for another-like switching from a cat to a dog! It is important to remember, though, that not all malicious acts come from malicious actors.

Sounds like your a step away from being certified!

I'm glad you found the content helpful! It's always a pleasure to share tips that can make a difference.

It’s like having a cheat code for the exam! Just don’t forget to unlock the rest of the game too! 😄

None taken! I've actually spent over 12 years in military cybersecurity defense and IT leadership, tackling high-stakes challenges every day. Risk is a constant in this field, but the goal is always to manage it smartly, not recklessly. Appreciate your comment, though!

@@Dr_KKendrick Respect.

You're welcome! Thank you for your kind words. The Google IT Support Professional Certificate is a great choice, especially if you find it aligns better with your career goals than the A+. Wishing you all the best as you work through it-keep up the great work!

Congrats on earning your A+ certification! 🎉 It's definitely a solid foundation for IT roles. Keep building on your skills and networking-sometimes it just takes the right opportunity to come along. Stay persistent, and best of luck in landing that first IT job!

You're not alone! I think CompTIA is secretly a riddle club trying to confuse us all with their questions. Keep practicing, and we'll crack their code together!

Ah, the CPTS! Because who doesn’t love a good challenge? It’s like OSCP but with a side of “can I even do this?” 😅

Shall we connect?

How hard was SC-900 and AZ-500?

@njpme AZ-500 is tough. Had 1 Lab simulation, 2 Case studies and 52 OBJs

@@delefagbemi6335 wow. I'll see how it goes. I want to pass on the first go

With all those certifications under your belt, you’re basically a cybersecurity superhero! Just don’t forget your cape when you tackle that CCSP!

That's Fantastic, Congrats!!

That's not true, if an anti-virus has heuristic capabilities it can offer some protection.

Sounds like you're on a great path! Both certifications are valuable, and it’s awesome that you’re already prepping for the Network+. Keep up the hard work!

So any time you log onto a network your computer information is logged with your IP, and MAC address. So if you posted something and I was a communist dictator with personal an over inflated idea of my self worth I could go in and track the IP address down to the public Wi-Fi, then pull the logs, fingerprint your browser, identify the upload time and pull all the MAC address associated then go on scavenger hunt to track you down. I could also grab the meta data off your video or picture or video which could clue me into your location. It would take time and resources but it could be done with warrants. This is where someone says use a VPN and i laugh because if you used a VPN and posted something really dangerous. I could easily identify the VPN provider, get a warrant and now i have all your information. Or, honestly I could just install malware across devices in my country by law which allows me to track your device and identify you by pushing out a unique identifier in the meta data every time you posted which would probably be the easiest thing to do. Honestly though, unless you're a communist country freedom of speech is one of our most basic right sin the U.S. and unless you threaten and poise a national security risk... the government isn't going to waste their time on you.

@@Dr_KKendrick Thank you Dr. Kendrick I replied via email as TH-cam does not like my questions

Happy new year!

I'm glad you found it helpful! Choosing the right certification can make a big difference in your career path.

You're very welcome! I'm glad you found the video helpful. If you have any more questions about the CySA+ exam, feel free to ask!

No problem! You didn't need to donate anything, I appreciate it but save your money for you.

You're welcome! If you have any questions about the certifications, feel free to ask!

Thanks! I’m glad you liked it! I’ll try to whip up a follow-up soon-stay tuned! 🍍

Sec+ hands down

Smart move! Public Wi-Fi is like a buffet of cyber threats-best to stick with a home-cooked meal instead!

Certifications like Security+ and degrees in cybersecurity are great starting points, but they don’t guarantee a job. Employers value hands-on experience, problem-solving skills, and real-world application. Combine your certs with labs, projects, internships, and networking to stand out in the job market. It’s all about building the right skills and connections!

Thank you

Great certs all, education will always be beneficial in cyber.

Every person is different, every location is different. That's not an easy answer, however, if you can find a hands-on program that provides the skills in the job field your looking for you can probably get by without another degree. but again it depends on your path and other considerations!

Yes IMO. I’ve been in the field for 10 years and work with people who have business admin degrees and nursing degrees that do just fine by doing certs and projects to close the skills gap.

Honesty is the best policy, unless you're trying to steal someone's Wi-Fi! 😄 Glad you liked the topic!
