I Passed! Passed Security+ yesterday! Looking forward to finding out what’s next

I used LinkedIn Learning the most, along with Professor Messer’s videos and a lot of practice questions.

Haven’t decided which cert I’ll be going after next (Currently looking at CCNA/RHCSA), but very excited to have this one in the bag.

CCNA and RHCSA are both fine, they just point you back at the systems side. So it depends on whether the next job is infra or security. If it is security, get in front of real alerts rather than a third knowledge cert, and CCDL1 over on CyberDefenders is set up for that. Either way Net+ and Sec+ already clears most L1 screens.

Congratulations! Which one did you find harder?

Appreciate it! I found Sec+ questions easier overall, but the Sec+ PBQ’s to be harder to study for/anticipate
