Thanks so much for the information. I have no prior IT experience and will take my exam this Friday. This video is great for knowing what to expect. I used this video along with other resources to fill gaps in knowledge. Fingers crossed! 🤞 5/5/23 edit: I passed the exam thanks to your advice!!! Most of the topics you mentioned here were asked on my exam. This is a great overview for anyone studying for the CC. Here are some more resources I used: -ISC2 self-paced training + Ebook -Mike Chappel's Linkedin Learning CC course -Thor Pedersen's Udemy course + practice exams -Paulo Carriera & Andree Miranda Udemy practice exams -Prabh Nair practice questions on RUclips -Cloud Guru Amit practice questions on RUclips - Some prior A+ and Sec+ knowledge from Professor Messer on RUclips. - I highly recommend knowing the OSI model as well.
It's great to see that you're taking the initiative to fill in any gaps in your knowledge with additional resources. I understand that taking an exam can be daunting, especially with no prior IT experience, but I have no doubt that with your hard work and dedication, you can succeed. You're taking an important step towards your career in cybersecurity, and I wish you all the best on your upcoming exam. Stay calm and focused, trust in your abilities, and don't forget to take breaks as needed. You got this, I’m rooting for you! Here are some tips to help you prepare and perform well: 1. Don't rely solely on the free CC training materials. Use additional resources to cover all aspects of the exam. 2. Practice exam questions to get a feel for the exam format and ensure that you're not surprised on exam day. Given that you have no prior experience, I strongly suggest taking the test assessment on Udemy, as it provides an exact question pattern that you'll likely encounter on the ISC2 CC exam. You can access the assesment through this link: www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/. This will help you prepare more effectively and increase your chances of success on the exam. 3. Use the pad provided to jot down ideas and eliminate options. Looking at the screen sometimes can be overwhelming, so using the pad can make it less distracting. 4. Remember that you have two hours to answer the questions. The exam includes some "test questions" that don't count toward your score, it's for ISC2 internal. You need a score of 70% to pass, but scores are not mentioned on the certificate or results paper. 5. Be strategic about which questions you spend time on and which you skip. You can't skip a question and return to it later, so choose wisely. 6. Stay calm and focused during the exam. You are allowed to take breaks as needed during the exam. it's worth noting that you won't be allowed to bring any personal items, including water bottles, into the exam room. To avoid any interruptions during the exam, it's best to drink water beforehand and prepare yourself mentally to stay focused for the duration of the test. 7. Arrive at the venue early to allow time for the initial process. It can be overwhelming, so take some deep breaths to overcome any anxiety while you wait for your turn. 8. Remember to check the ISC2 website for more information and FAQs about the exam. www.isc2.org/Frequently-Asked-Questions I wish you the best of luck on your exam and would love to hear about your experience!

You're absolutely right, and I sincerely apologize for the mistake. When posting online education videos, especially when people might rely on the information to pass exams, it’s crucial to provide accurate details, and I failed to do that here. This was the first video I uploaded, and I didn’t do a thorough job reviewing the content. If you’d asked me in the middle of the night, I would have confidently said IMAP is in the application layer. I’m genuinely embarrassed that I kept saying 'presentation' layer instead. Thank you so much for pointing it out and helping me correct it. Since I couldn’t update just that part of the video without deleting it, I’ve removed the segment entirely. Your feedback not only helps me improve but also strengthens our community’s knowledge. I’m truly grateful for your constructive input-it’s essential for everyone’s success. If you’re taking this exam yourself, I have a feeling you're going to crush it and walk out with a well-deserved pass!

Passed the exam yesterday. This video was my last reference and was helpful. The exam was tricked by ISC2 with poor english and grammar. A solid understanding and application of the concepts and common sense will help to clear it. Not easy by any means.
Congratulations on passing the ISC2 CC exam! 🎉👏 Your feedback on the exam's difficulty and the importance of understanding the concepts and applying common sense is invaluable for others preparing for it. It's true that exams can sometimes be challenging, especially when they involve tricky language and grammar.

@@mylifetalks thanks for ur comment, and one more doubt- can we leave the exam center when finished or should we sit there for 2 hours till the exam is finished... If I could know it early I could take my return tickets accordingly..
Yes, you can leave the exam center when you are finished with your ISC2 CC exam.Once you have completed your exam, you will need to raise your hand to signal to the test administrator (TA). The TA will then come to your station to verify that you are finished and to collect your exam materials.When i say materials sometime they give small rough pad and pen. If you finish your exam early, you will be allowed to leave the test center immediately. You do not need to wait until the end of the scheduled exam time.Please note that you will not be able to return to the exam room once you have left. Therefore, it is important to make sure that you have finished your exam and that you have turned in all of your exam materials , collected your mark list and your id proofs before you leave. I hope this information is helpful. Good luck with your exam!

Dear Charlie, I'm so sorry to hear that you couldn’t clear your exam. Please don't give up! You put in so much hard work and effort, and it's important to remember that setbacks are a natural part of any learning process.Thank you for being brave enough to share your experience, which helps the community and I appreciate that you took the time to reach out. I completely agree that the free course on CC provided by ISC2 is not enough. But please don't let this setback discourage you from pursuing your goals. Sharing the learning path from my experience, I hope this helps in retaking the exam: 1. Complete the ISC CC free training to get a hang of terminology and concepts. 2.

thank you for this Video, however I have a question, you mentioned that the only external attack that affects availability of information is DDOS, my question is that how about Ransomeware atack? Does Ransomeware not affect availability too? I do hope you'll see this and answer me Thank you
Great question! Thank you for taking the time to watch the video and leaving a comment. You are absolutely right that ransomware attacks can also impact the availability of information. In fact, ransomware attacks often encrypt the victim's files, making them inaccessible until a ransom is paid. This is a form of denial-of-access attack (RDDoS), which falls under the broader category of denial-of-service attacks that can affect the availability of information. Ransomware also comprises the integrity as well as the confidentiality of information. When ransomware encrypts a victim's data, it changes the original form of the data, which can affect the integrity of the information. I hope that helps clarify things. It's important to keep in mind that interpretation can vary depending on how a question is read or understood. While I believe that ransomware attacks can compromise C, I and A, there may be differing opinions or interpretations on this matter. Thanks again for your thoughtful question!
Do you think it is necessary to have knowledge of A+ and Network+ topics before attempting to take the ISC2 CC test? I am unsure if I should study those first before getting into the CC program? Thanks for your insight.
Thank you for taking the time to watch the video and posting your comment. Wonderful question, Having a foundational understanding of computer hardware, security and networking can be beneficial. The A+ and Network+ certifications cover these topics in detail, and they can provide a good foundation for individuals who are interested in pursuing a career in cybersecurity. However, they are not a prerequisite for the ISC2 CC certification. Decision to study for A+ and Network+ before pursuing the ISC2 CC certification depends on your prior knowledge and experience in these areas. If you already have a strong foundation in computer hardware and networking, then you may not need to study A+ or N+ Sharing the learning path from my experience, without the need for A+ or N+ 1. Complete, ISC CC free training 2. Go with Mike if you are short of time, for detailed training go with Thor. It should be sufficient. www.linkedin.com/learning/isc-2-certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-cert-prep (Under 5 hours) Opt for 1 month free LinkedIn Learning subscription, attend Mike Chapple’s CC training or www.udemy.com/course/certifiedincybersecurity/ (Under 17 hours) For more detailed training go with Thor Pedersen in Udemy 3. This is the best practise Test questions ( I strongly recommend to do this before attempting the actual exam) www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/ I would recommend you to do the free ISC CC certification then go for A+ or SeC+, save you time and money. Hope this helps you, good luck with your exam. Please let me know about the outcome of your exam. I like your handle, cool name PurePositivity :)
Hi there! Thanks for watching my video. Yes, the ISC2 CC certification expires after two years. To maintain your certification, you must earn 60 Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits every two years. CPE credits can be earned through a variety of activities, such as: Attending conferences and training courses Reading industry publications and blogs Taking online courses Writing articles or blog posts Giving presentations or webinars Volunteering your time to a cybersecurity organization If you do not earn the required number of CPE credits, your certification will expire and you will need to retake the exam to become recertified. The exam is currently free for everyone, but there is a $50 annual maintenance fee to keep your certification active. If you are already an ISC2 member, you do not have to pay this fee. Here are some additional tips for earning CPE credits: Look for activities that are relevant to your career goals and interests. Be sure to keep track of your CPE credits so that you do not lose track. There are a number of online resources that can help you find CPE activities and track your credits.I hope this answers your question. All the best, Your friend @ MyLifeTalks
Absolutely, your feedback is really appreciated! I cover a range of subjects on my channel beyond cybersecurity. If you happen to enjoy any of those videos, I'd be honored if you considered subscribing. Every subscriber means a lot to a humble one-person channel like mine. Thanks for your time and support!
Thank you for your comment! Other than the ISC2 Code of Ethics, it is unlikely that any other questions from the assessment may directly appear on the exam. The purpose of the assessment is to familiarize you with the types of questions you may encounter in the actual exam. To fully prepare for the exam, I highly encourage you to explore additional resources beyond the free course. While the free course provides a foundation, it's important to supplement your preparation with comprehensive study materials. If you're looking for additional practice questions, platforms like Udemy can be a valuable resource. www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/ They offer a wide range of practice exams specifically designed to simulate the actual exam experience. Many candidates have found these practice questions helpful in their exam preparation. Good luck with your learning, and I hope you excel in your exam!
You're absolutely right! While passing the exam is a fantastic achievement, there's one final step on your journey to becoming a Certified in Cybersecurity professional - the $50 annual maintenance fee (AMF). The AMF is charged annually, so you'll need to pay it every year to keep your certification active. Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to pay the AMF is up to you
That's really cool to hear that you're attempting this exam at such a young age. It takes a lot of courage and hard work to take on such a challenge. Remember to take breaks, stay motivated, and ask for help when you need it. I'm rooting for you! Good luck! Pathfinder will make it easy to discover which (ISC)² certification is ideal for you. www.isc2.org/Certifications/Qualification-Pathfinder
Yes brotha, you can get the ISC2 CC course for free as part of the One Million Certified in Cybersecurity initiative. This initiative aims to provide free training and exams to one million people around the world in order to help close the cybersecurity workforce gap. If you are taking the ISC2 CC course for free, you will have 1 chance to take the exam. If you fail the exam, you will need to pay the full exam fee to retake it. The exam fee for the ISC2 CC exam is $199. However, if you are a member of (ISC)², you can get a discount on the exam fee. The discounted exam fee for (ISC)² members is $125. To find out more about the One Million Certified in Cybersecurity initiative, please visit the following website: www.isc2.org/landing/1mcc All the best for your certification exam!
Thank you for your comment. Regarding your concern about using a second free voucher code, according to my friend who contacted ISC2 customer service, doing so might result in our membership being revoked. Even if we use a different email ID or reuse the existing voucher, we need to keep in mind that they have a copy of our Gov ID’s, scanned our palms, took pictures for identification as part of the exam. Therefore, it becomes easy for them to recognize if someone is attempting to take the exam multiple times, compared to the number of vouchers issued. Check the below ISC2 forum link on retake policy and cost community.isc2.org/t5/Exam-Preparation/CC-Exam-Retake/td-p/55629 There was a free retake program from ISC2, however, I don’t think CC was part of it. Shared the link for your reference. www.isc2.org/landing/free-exam-retake ISC2 support email ID: examadministration@isc2.org All the best !!
1. Check the official ISC2 website and register here: www.isc2.org/cc-bundles?GBL-CC-bundles&. However, do not attend the exam solely relying on these resources as they only cover the basics. The exam covers topics that are outside of the free content. 2. If you have experience working in IT cybersecurity, I highly recommend attending this LinkedIn training by Mike Chapple. You can take the training for free by subscribing to one month of LinkedIn free. Don't forget to cancel the subscription after the one-month trial to avoid being charged: www.linkedin.com/learning/isc-2-certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-cert-prep. 3. This is a paid training on Udemy, and I recommend it if you are new to cybersecurity. Thor covers all aspects. Don't buy the course at full price as Udemy usually has sales often, and you can get it for more than a 50% discounted price: www.udemy.com/course/certifiedincybersecurity/. 4. These are the best practice questions. I have a couple of friends who passed the exam, and they said some of the questions in this practice appeared on the exam. I can't vouch for it as I didn't use them for practice, but it's from word of mouth from my friends: www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/. All the best for your CC certification.

Is the offline? I regestered free training+ exam course in isc2 website, now i am learning in their resources, but i am confused will it be offline? What is pearson vue exam
It's great to see your enthusiasm for the ISC2 CC training and exam course! Let me provide some clarity on a few points. The training course is not offline; it's actually an online course. This means you can access it from anywhere with an internet connection, offering you the flexibility to study at your own pace and convenience. Regarding Pearson VUE, they specialize in computer-based testing services for various certifications, including the ISC2 CC certification. However, it's important to note that you can't take the ISC2 CC exam from the comfort of your home. To take the exam, you'll need to schedule an appointment at a Pearson VUE testing center. You can easily schedule the exam through their website, and then you'll visit the designated center for the actual test. On the day of your exam, be sure to bring a valid form of identification and your exam voucher. Additionally, remember that personal belongings should be securely stored in a locker during the exam, as I mentioned in the video. The ISC2 CC exam is a multiple-choice exam, and in order to pass, you'll need to achieve a score of at least 70%. I hope this information helps clarify things for you. Best of luck with your studies !
Reading your comment today has truly warmed my heart, and it's one of the best things that's happened to me today ❤️. I can't express how much your words mean to me, more than you can imagine. They inspire me to keep doing what I love, especially during those challenging moments when it feels like giving up. Thank you sooooo much for your incredible support and for subscribing-it means everything! I just checked out your RUclips channel page as well, and it's wonderful to see that we both share a passion for astronomy. While I cover thought experiments, my recent one happens to be on BlackHole , and I hope you'll find it intriguing. Here's the link( pouring water inside a blackhole) : ruclips.net/video/J-nyatbkb8E/видео.html Thank you again for the love and support; your words have truly touched me. Love you too, bro! Live long and prosper, indeed!
Thank you for your comment. I'm sorry to hear that your exam didn't go well. It's important to remember that setbacks are a natural part of any learning process. happen to many individuals, even those who are highly skilled and dedicated. Exams can be challenging, particularly when dealing with cybersecurity concepts and understanding complex terminology. Keep pushing forward and believe in your ability to improve and achieve better results in your future attempts.It's brave of you to try the CC examination again, and I appreciate you reaching out. Regarding the cost of retaking the CC examination, it's essential to consider how you scheduled your previous exam, depending on the below 3 options it’s either free or you have to pay. Here is a look at the options and their corresponding prices: Option 1: Self-Paced + Exam Price: $0 - Description: Exam included, no extra attempts. Option 2: Self-Paced + Exam + Extras* Price: $199 - Description: Self-paced online training with 2 exam attempts, 180 days access to course content, and no Annual Maintenance Fees for the first year. Option 3: Live Online + Exam + Extras* Price: $804 - Description: Live virtual classroom sessions with authorized instructors, 2 exam attempts, 180 days access to course content, and no Annual Maintenance Fees for the first year. If you scheduled your previous exam using Option 1 using a free voucher, your retake may not be free. Free retake of the exam apply if you choose Option 2 or 3 to schedule your exam. Cost of retaking the exam may vary depending on your region. Among the available options, this is the most economical registration price for taking the exam. - Americas and all other regions not listed below: $199 USD - Asia Pacific: $199 USD - EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa): - Standard Registration: €184 EUR - United Kingdom: Standard Registration: £156 GBP - Middle East: Standard Registration: $199 USD - Africa: Standard Registration: $199 USD Rescheduling Exam: U.S. $50/35£/40€ | Cancelling Exam: U.S. $100/70£/80€ Please note that these prices are subject to change, and it's always best to refer to the official ISC2 website or contact their customer service for the most up-to-date and accurate information.

You can reach out to them at ExamAdministration@isc2.org for questions about the exam process or registration, or MemberSupport@isc2.org for inquiries regarding ISC2 membership. Sharing the learning path from my experience, I hope this helps in retaking the exam: 1. Complete the ISC CC free training to get a hang of terminology and concepts. 2. If you're short on time and have experience working in cybersecurity, go with Mike's Chapple’s CC training, However, if you're new to cybersecurity or have no experience have time on your hands then go with Thor. It should be sufficient. - www.linkedin.com/learning/isc-2-certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-cert-prep (Under 5 hours) Opt for 1 month free LinkedIn Learning subscription, you can take Mike Chapple’s CC training for free. OR - For more detailed training go with Thor Pedersen in Udemy. www.udemy.com/course/certifiedincybersecurity/ (Under 17 hours) 3. Take practice tests before attempting the actual exam. I recommend this course on Udemy: www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/ I hope this learning path will help you in retaking the exam. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns. I wish you all the best in your next attempt. Don't give up!
Greeting, No, there is no negative marking in the ISC2 CC exam. This means that you will not be penalized for answering a question incorrectly. However, you will need to answer a certain number of questions correctly in order to pass the exam. The passing score is 70%. All the best for your exam
Greetings, Thank you for your comment! Best of luck with your upcoming exam! Regarding your question, there is no requirement to bring a physical hall ticket for the exam. Instead, i would advise to keep a soft-copy of your exam registration confirmation email from VUETestingService@Pearson.com. This email contains important details such as your Client Candidate ID and Registration ID. While it is not mandatory to have a soft-copy, it's beneficial to keep it accessible for reference. In addition, it's important to note the mandatory items for the exam day, such as bringing two valid forms of identification as outlined in the exam guidelines. You can find a comprehensive list of requirements and additional information on the official exam website. Admission Policy Plan to arrive at your test center at least 30 minutes before your exam start time. To check in for your appointment, the following is required: * Show two (2) valid, unexpired forms of personal ID (examples include: government issued ids, passports, etc.). Both must have your name (exactly as it appears in your exam registration) and signature, and one of the two must have your photo. For more information about acceptable IDs please visit: * www.isc2.org/Register-for-Exam and look under What You Need to Bring to the Test Center tab for more information. * Provide your signature. * Submit to a palm vein scan (unless prohibited by law). * Have your photo taken. Hats, scarves, and coats may not be worn for your photo. You may not wear these items in the test room. * Leave your belongings outside the testing room. You will have access to secure storage. As storage space is limited, please plan appropriately. Pearson VUE test centers do not assume responsibility for your belongings. * Receive a short orientation from the Test Administrator (TA). After the orientation, the TA will escort you to a testing station. * Sign and agree to the Non-Disclosure Agreement that will be presented at the beginning of your exam. Please take a moment to review the agreement now so that you are familiar with it when you sit for your exam. During this process, it is common to feel anxious. Remember to take a breather, drink some water, and relax. The palm scans may take some time, and they may be repeated multiple times. Once again, I wish you the best of luck with your exam! I'm sure you'll excel.
Thank you for your comment. I'm sorry to hear that your exam didn't go well. It could happen to even the best of us. Don't give up! The exam is not necessarily hard if we spend some time on it. However, it can be overwhelming if we are not familiar with the cybersecurity terms. In addition, having a good grasp of English language comes in handy. Knowing the meaning of words will help us to comprehend the questions accurately can make a significant difference in the exam's outcome. Regarding your concern about using a second free voucher code, according to my friend who contacted ISC2 customer service, doing so might result in our membership being revoked. Even if we use a different email ID or reuse the existing voucher, we need to keep in mind that they have a copy of our Gov ID’s, scanned our palms, took pictures for identification as part of the exam. Therefore, it becomes easy for them to recognize if someone is attempting to take the exam multiple times, compared to the number of vouchers issued. Check the below ISC2 forum link on retake policy and cost community.isc2.org/t5/Exam-Preparation/CC-Exam-Retake/td-p/55629 There was a free retake program from ISC2, however, I don’t think CC was part of it. Shared the link for your reference. www.isc2.org/landing/free-exam-retake ISC2 support email ID: examadministration@isc2.org All the best !!
Congratulations on passing your examination! You should know that (ISC)² provides free training through an online self-paced course available for six months and pays for your exam administration by providing you with an exam code to use. However, please note that maintaining your certification requires an annual fee of $50. To clarify, the training materials and exam are 100% free, but becoming a member and obtaining the certificate will cost you $50 per year. Passing this examination is the first of three steps toward earning your certification. The next step is to complete the online application within nine months of your exam date. While work experience is not required to earn the CC designation, completing the application verifies that you have read and understood the (ISC)² Code of Ethics. Once your application is completed, the final step is to pay your first Annual Maintenance Fee (AMF). Once your AMF payment is made, you will earn your certification. However, if you already hold an (ISC)² certification or associate status, you will not have to pay an additional AMF for your latest certification. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact ISC2 Support at membersupport@isc2.org or +1.866.331.4722. It's worth noting that while certification bodies must ensure the relevance and value of their certifications through ongoing updates, some may be motivated by profit, which can result in increased membership and maintenance fees. As such, lifetime free certifications are becoming less common in the industry.
As of now, the ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity (CC) exam is only available at authorized Pearson VUE test centers. Unlike Azure and Google Cloud training, which offer the flexibility of taking exams from home, the CC exam requires in-person testing at a designated location. During the CC exam, you will be required to undergo biometric verification, including facial and hand scanning. This is a standard security measure to ensure exam integrity and prevent cheating. All the best for your exam!
0:28 You should take full credit for passing the exam. I am sure it was difficult. I really, really like you being modest (not many people genuinely are modest these days), but you will have problems because in a culture that actively promotes bragging and showing off for nothing, your modesty will be perceived as lack of confidence and self- esteem. I wish you every success 😊
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your incredibly kind and encouraging words! You are a kind soul. Reading your comment truly made my day, and your words mean more to me than I can express. It's been a few months since I've uploaded a video, but your comment has truly lifted my spirits and motivated me to keep creating content.

Thanks so much for the information. I have no prior IT experience and will take my exam this Friday. This video is great for knowing what to expect.
I used this video along with other resources to fill gaps in knowledge. Fingers crossed! 🤞
5/5/23 edit: I passed the exam thanks to your advice!!! Most of the topics you mentioned here were asked on my exam. This is a great overview for anyone studying for the CC. Here are some more resources I used:
-ISC2 self-paced training + Ebook
-Mike Chappel's Linkedin Learning CC course
-Thor Pedersen's Udemy course + practice exams
-Paulo Carriera & Andree Miranda Udemy practice exams
-Prabh Nair practice questions on RUclips
-Cloud Guru Amit practice questions on RUclips
- Some prior A+ and Sec+ knowledge from Professor Messer on RUclips.
- I highly recommend knowing the OSI model as well.
It's great to see that you're taking the initiative to fill in any gaps in your knowledge with additional resources.
I understand that taking an exam can be daunting, especially with no prior IT experience, but I have no doubt that with your hard work and dedication, you can succeed.
You're taking an important step towards your career in cybersecurity, and I wish you all the best on your upcoming exam. Stay calm and focused, trust in your abilities, and don't forget to take breaks as needed. You got this, I’m rooting for you!
Here are some tips to help you prepare and perform well:
1. Don't rely solely on the free CC training materials. Use additional resources to cover all aspects of the exam.
2. Practice exam questions to get a feel for the exam format and ensure that you're not surprised on exam day. Given that you have no prior experience, I strongly suggest taking the test assessment on Udemy, as it provides an exact question pattern that you'll likely encounter on the ISC2 CC exam. You can access the assesment through this link: www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/. This will help you prepare more effectively and increase your chances of success on the exam.
3. Use the pad provided to jot down ideas and eliminate options. Looking at the screen sometimes can be overwhelming, so using the pad can make it less distracting.
4. Remember that you have two hours to answer the questions. The exam includes some "test questions" that don't count toward your score, it's for ISC2 internal. You need a score of 70% to pass, but scores are not mentioned on the certificate or results paper.
5. Be strategic about which questions you spend time on and which you skip. You can't skip a question and return to it later, so choose wisely.
6. Stay calm and focused during the exam. You are allowed to take breaks as needed during the exam. it's worth noting that you won't be allowed to bring any personal items, including water bottles, into the exam room. To avoid any interruptions during the exam, it's best to drink water beforehand and prepare yourself mentally to stay focused for the duration of the test.
7. Arrive at the venue early to allow time for the initial process. It can be overwhelming, so take some deep breaths to overcome any anxiety while you wait for your turn.
8. Remember to check the ISC2 website for more information and FAQs about the exam. www.isc2.org/Frequently-Asked-Questions
I wish you the best of luck on your exam and would love to hear about your experience!

15:02 PHI is NOT "Personal Health Information".... its "Protected Health Information"
Thank you again for the feedback! You're absolutely right-Protected Health Information (PHI) is the correct term, and I really appreciate you catching that. While 'personal health information' is commonly used, PHI is the accurate term from a HIPAA perspective. Unfortunately, I can't add a caption to the video, but I've made a cut to remove the abbreviation part. If you notice anything else, feel free to let me know. Thanks once again!

15:53 IMAP is NOT presentation layer... its application layer
You're absolutely right, and I sincerely apologize for the mistake. When posting online education videos, especially when people might rely on the information to pass exams, it’s crucial to provide accurate details, and I failed to do that here. This was the first video I uploaded, and I didn’t do a thorough job reviewing the content. If you’d asked me in the middle of the night, I would have confidently said IMAP is in the application layer. I’m genuinely embarrassed that I kept saying 'presentation' layer instead. Thank you so much for pointing it out and helping me correct it. Since I couldn’t update just that part of the video without deleting it, I’ve removed the segment entirely. Your feedback not only helps me improve but also strengthens our community’s knowledge. I’m truly grateful for your constructive input-it’s essential for everyone’s success.
If you’re taking this exam yourself, I have a feeling you're going to crush it and walk out with a well-deserved pass!

Passed the exam yesterday. This video was my last reference and was helpful. The exam was tricked by ISC2 with poor english and grammar. A solid understanding and application of the concepts and common sense will help to clear it. Not easy by any means.
Congratulations on passing the ISC2 CC exam! 🎉👏
Your feedback on the exam's difficulty and the importance of understanding the concepts and applying common sense is invaluable for others preparing for it. It's true that exams can sometimes be challenging, especially when they involve tricky language and grammar.
Your success is a testament to your dedication and hard work, and your comment will undoubtedly help others who are on their journey to becoming certified. Well done, and thank you for sharing your experience!

@@mylifetalks thanks for ur comment, and one more doubt- can we leave the exam center when finished or should we sit there for 2 hours till the exam is finished... If I could know it early I could take my return tickets accordingly..
Yes, you can leave the exam center when you are finished with your ISC2 CC exam.Once you have completed your exam, you will need to raise your hand to signal to the test administrator (TA). The TA will then come to your station to verify that you are finished and to collect your exam materials.When i say materials sometime they give small rough pad and pen. If you finish your exam early, you will be allowed to leave the test center immediately. You do not need to wait until the end of the scheduled exam time.Please note that you will not be able to return to the exam room once you have left. Therefore, it is important to make sure that you have finished your exam and that you have turned in all of your exam materials , collected your mark list and your id proofs before you leave.
I hope this information is helpful. Good luck with your exam!
Very good bro. Explained very clearly about the exam key points. Keep posting about CISSP certification.

Dear Charlie,
I'm so sorry to hear that you couldn’t clear your exam. Please don't give up! You put in so much hard work and effort, and it's important to remember that setbacks are a natural part of any learning process.Thank you for being brave enough to share your experience, which helps the community and I appreciate that you took the time to reach out.
I completely agree that the free course on CC provided by ISC2 is not enough. But please don't let this setback discourage you from pursuing your goals.
Sharing the learning path from my experience, I hope this helps in retaking the exam:
1. Complete the ISC CC free training to get a hang of terminology and concepts.
2. If you're short on time and have experience working in cybersecurity, go with Mike's Chapple’s CC training, However, if you're new to cybersecurity or have no experience have time on your hands then go with Thor. It should be sufficient.
- www.linkedin.com/learning/isc-2-certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-cert-prep
(Under 5 hours) Opt for 1 month free LinkedIn Learning subscription, you can attend Mike Chapple’s CC training for free. OR
- For more detailed training go with Thor Pedersen in Udemy.
www.udemy.com/course/certifiedincybersecurity/ (Under 17 hours)
3. Take practice tests before attempting the actual exam. I recommend this course on Udemy:
www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/
I hope this learning path will help you in retaking the exam. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns. I wish you all the best in your next attempt. Don't give up!
I'm taking my exam next month. I'm hoping for the best🤞🏿
I’m so excited for you! If you've been working hard I'm confident that you'll do great.
Stay calm and focused, trust in your abilities, and don't forget to take breaks as needed. You got this, I’m rooting for you, Champ!
Here are some tips to help you prepare and perform well:
1. Don't rely solely on the free CC training materials. Use additional resources to cover all aspects of the exam.
2. Practice exam questions to get a feel for the exam format and ensure that you're not surprised on exam day. I strongly suggest taking the test assessment on Udemy, as it provides an exact question pattern that you'll likely encounter on the ISC2 CC exam. You can access the assessment through this link: www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/. This will help you prepare more effectively and increase your chances of success on the exam.
3. Use the pad provided to jot down ideas and eliminate options. Looking at the screen sometimes can be overwhelming, so using the pad can make it less distracting.
4. Remember that you have two hours to answer the questions. The exam includes some "test questions" that don't count toward your score, it's for ISC2 internal. You need a score of 70% to pass, but scores are not mentioned on the certificate or results paper.
5. Be strategic about which questions you spend time on and which you skip. You can't skip a question and return to it later, so choose wisely.
6. Stay calm and focused during the exam. You are allowed to take breaks as needed during the exam. it's worth noting that you won't be allowed to bring any personal items, including water bottles, into the exam room. To avoid any interruptions during the exam, it's best to drink water beforehand and prepare yourself mentally to stay focused for the duration of the test.
7. Arrive at the venue early to allow time for the initial process. It can be overwhelming, so take some deep breaths to overcome any anxiety while you wait for your turn.
8. Remember to check the ISC2 website for more information and FAQs about the exam. www.isc2.org/Frequently-Asked-Questions
Remember to take breaks during the exam to avoid burnout or fatigue. You can take two breaks during the exam, each of which is 10 minutes long. Even if you feel like you're making good progress, taking a short break now and then can help you stay alert and focused throughout the test. Just manage your time effectively so you can complete the exam within the allotted two-hour time frame.
I wish you the best of luck on your exam and would love to hear about your experience!

I cover a variety of topics on my channel, so please take a look, and if you like what you see, I’d be delighted to have you as a subscriber. Best of luck in your future endeavors!
@@mylifetalks Sure..I'll go through your channel..
I hope you will upload more like this
thank you for this Video, however I have a question, you mentioned that the only external attack that affects availability of information is DDOS, my question is that how about Ransomeware atack? Does Ransomeware not affect availability too?
I do hope you'll see this and answer me
Thank you
Great question! Thank you for taking the time to watch the video and leaving a comment. You are absolutely right that ransomware attacks can also impact the availability of information. In fact, ransomware attacks often encrypt the victim's files, making them inaccessible until a ransom is paid. This is a form of denial-of-access attack (RDDoS), which falls under the broader category of denial-of-service attacks that can affect the availability of information. Ransomware also comprises the integrity as well as the confidentiality of information. When ransomware encrypts a victim's data, it changes the original form of the data, which can affect the integrity of the information. I hope that helps clarify things.
It's important to keep in mind that interpretation can vary depending on how a question is read or understood. While I believe that ransomware attacks can compromise C, I and A, there may be differing opinions or interpretations on this matter. Thanks again for your thoughtful question!
Good one, ... keep it up 👍
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Do you think it is necessary to have knowledge of A+ and Network+ topics before attempting to take the ISC2 CC test? I am unsure if I should study those first before getting into the CC program? Thanks for your insight.
Thank you for taking the time to watch the video and posting your comment. Wonderful question,
Having a foundational understanding of computer hardware, security and networking can be beneficial. The A+ and Network+ certifications cover these topics in detail, and they can provide a good foundation for individuals who are interested in pursuing a career in cybersecurity. However, they are not a prerequisite for the ISC2 CC certification.
Decision to study for A+ and Network+ before pursuing the ISC2 CC certification depends on your prior knowledge and experience in these areas. If you already have a strong foundation in computer hardware and networking, then you may not need to study A+ or N+
Sharing the learning path from my experience, without the need for A+ or N+
1. Complete, ISC CC free training
2. Go with Mike if you are short of time, for detailed training go with Thor. It should be sufficient. www.linkedin.com/learning/isc-2-certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-cert-prep (Under 5 hours) Opt for 1 month free LinkedIn Learning subscription, attend Mike Chapple’s CC training or www.udemy.com/course/certifiedincybersecurity/ (Under 17 hours) For more detailed training go with Thor Pedersen in Udemy
3. This is the best practise Test questions ( I strongly recommend to do this before attempting the actual exam)
www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/
I would recommend you to do the free ISC CC certification then go for A+ or SeC+, save you time and money.
Hope this helps you, good luck with your exam. Please let me know about the outcome of your exam.
I like your handle, cool name PurePositivity :)
Hi, great video. Does it expire?
Hi there! Thanks for watching my video. Yes, the ISC2 CC certification expires after two years. To maintain your certification, you must earn 60 Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits every two years.
CPE credits can be earned through a variety of activities, such as:
Attending conferences and training courses
Reading industry publications and blogs
Taking online courses
Writing articles or blog posts
Giving presentations or webinars
Volunteering your time to a cybersecurity organization
If you do not earn the required number of CPE credits, your certification will expire and you will need to retake the exam to become recertified.
The exam is currently free for everyone, but there is a $50 annual maintenance fee to keep your certification active. If you are already an ISC2 member, you do not have to pay this fee.
Here are some additional tips for earning CPE credits:
Look for activities that are relevant to your career goals and interests.
Be sure to keep track of your CPE credits so that you do not lose track.
There are a number of online resources that can help you find CPE activities and track your credits.I hope this answers your question.
All the best,
Your friend @ MyLifeTalks

If you happen to enjoy any of those videos, I'd be honored if you considered subscribing. Every subscriber means a lot to a humble one-person channel like mine. Thanks for your time and support!
@@mylifetalks no problem!
DO the questions came from the post course assessment?
Thank you for your comment! Other than the ISC2 Code of Ethics, it is unlikely that any other questions from the assessment may directly appear on the exam. The purpose of the assessment is to familiarize you with the types of questions you may encounter in the actual exam.
To fully prepare for the exam, I highly encourage you to explore additional resources beyond the free course. While the free course provides a foundation, it's important to supplement your preparation with comprehensive study materials.
If you're looking for additional practice questions, platforms like Udemy can be a valuable resource.
www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/
They offer a wide range of practice exams specifically designed to simulate the actual exam experience. Many candidates have found these practice questions helpful in their exam preparation.
Good luck with your learning, and I hope you excel in your exam!
Afetr the passing the exam have to pay 50$ to obtain the cc certificate
You're absolutely right! While passing the exam is a fantastic achievement, there's one final step on your journey to becoming a Certified in Cybersecurity professional - the $50 annual maintenance fee (AMF). The AMF is charged annually, so you'll need to pay it every year to keep your certification active. Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to pay the AMF is up to you
Im a 15 year old trying to attempt this
That's really cool to hear that you're attempting this exam at such a young age. It takes a lot of courage and hard work to take on such a challenge. Remember to take breaks, stay motivated, and ask for help when you need it. I'm rooting for you! Good luck!

@@mylifetalks thanks for ur reply I will ask for help when needed
@@AhmedtheCyberWarrior You can do it 100%. Dont let anyone including yourself tell you otherwise
bro can you tell me, who are doing this course free, for those how many chances we have to giving the exam
Yes brotha, you can get the ISC2 CC course for free as part of the One Million Certified in Cybersecurity initiative. This initiative aims to provide free training and exams to one million people around the world in order to help close the cybersecurity workforce gap.
If you are taking the ISC2 CC course for free, you will have 1 chance to take the exam. If you fail the exam, you will need to pay the full exam fee to retake it.
The exam fee for the ISC2 CC exam is $199. However, if you are a member of (ISC)², you can get a discount on the exam fee. The discounted exam fee for (ISC)² members is $125.

All the best for your certification exam!
great .. is it possible to re try the exam if someone no pass?
Thank you for your comment. Regarding your concern about using a second free voucher code, according to my friend who contacted ISC2 customer service, doing so might result in our membership being revoked. Even if we use a different email ID or reuse the existing voucher, we need to keep in mind that they have a copy of our Gov ID’s, scanned our palms, took pictures for identification as part of the exam. Therefore, it becomes easy for them to recognize if someone is attempting to take the exam multiple times, compared to the number of vouchers issued.
Check the below ISC2 forum link on retake policy and cost
community.isc2.org/t5/Exam-Preparation/CC-Exam-Retake/td-p/55629
There was a free retake program from ISC2, however, I don’t think CC was part of it. Shared the link for your reference.

All the best !!
May I know where can i get the study materials for CC in Cybersecurity
1. Check the official ISC2 website and register here:
www.isc2.org/cc-bundles?GBL-CC-bundles&.
However, do not attend the exam solely relying on these resources as they only cover the basics. The exam covers topics that are outside of the free content.
2. If you have experience working in IT cybersecurity, I highly recommend attending this LinkedIn training by Mike Chapple. You can take the training for free by subscribing to one month of LinkedIn free. Don't forget to cancel the subscription after the one-month trial to avoid being charged:
www.linkedin.com/learning/isc-2-certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-cert-prep.
3. This is a paid training on Udemy, and I recommend it if you are new to cybersecurity. Thor covers all aspects. Don't buy the course at full price as Udemy usually has sales often, and you can get it for more than a 50% discounted price:
www.udemy.com/course/certifiedincybersecurity/.
4. These are the best practice questions. I have a couple of friends who passed the exam, and they said some of the questions in this practice appeared on the exam. I can't vouch for it as I didn't use them for practice, but it's from word of mouth from my friends:
www.udemy.com/course/certified-in-cybersecurity-cc-exam-preparation/.
All the best for your CC certification.

Is the offline? I regestered free training+ exam course in isc2 website, now i am learning in their resources, but i am confused will it be offline? What is pearson vue exam
It's great to see your enthusiasm for the ISC2 CC training and exam course! Let me provide some clarity on a few points.
The training course is not offline; it's actually an online course. This means you can access it from anywhere with an internet connection, offering you the flexibility to study at your own pace and convenience.
Regarding Pearson VUE, they specialize in computer-based testing services for various certifications, including the ISC2 CC certification. However, it's important to note that you can't take the ISC2 CC exam from the comfort of your home. To take the exam, you'll need to schedule an appointment at a Pearson VUE testing center. You can easily schedule the exam through their website, and then you'll visit the designated center for the actual test.
On the day of your exam, be sure to bring a valid form of identification and your exam voucher. Additionally, remember that personal belongings should be securely stored in a locker during the exam, as I mentioned in the video.
The ISC2 CC exam is a multiple-choice exam, and in order to pass, you'll need to achieve a score of at least 70%. I hope this information helps clarify things for you. Best of luck with your studies !

I failed my exams and planning to take the CC examination again, what should I do and how much money is it to take it again?
Thank you for your comment. I'm sorry to hear that your exam didn't go well. It's important to remember that setbacks are a natural part of any learning process. happen to many individuals, even those who are highly skilled and dedicated. Exams can be challenging, particularly when dealing with cybersecurity concepts and understanding complex terminology. Keep pushing forward and believe in your ability to improve and achieve better results in your future attempts.It's brave of you to try the CC examination again, and I appreciate you reaching out.
Regarding the cost of retaking the CC examination, it's essential to consider how you scheduled your previous exam, depending on the below 3 options it’s either free or you have to pay.
Here is a look at the options and their corresponding prices:

Is there any negative marking in isc2 cc exam sir ?
Greeting,
No, there is no negative marking in the ISC2 CC exam. This means that you will not be penalized for answering a question incorrectly. However, you will need to answer a certain number of questions correctly in order to pass the exam. The passing score is 70%.
All the best for your exam
Do we need to take hall ticket for exam?
Greetings,
Thank you for your comment! Best of luck with your upcoming exam!
Regarding your question, there is no requirement to bring a physical hall ticket for the exam. Instead, i would advise to keep a soft-copy of your exam registration confirmation email from VUETestingService@Pearson.com. This email contains important details such as your Client Candidate ID and Registration ID. While it is not mandatory to have a soft-copy, it's beneficial to keep it accessible for reference.
In addition, it's important to note the mandatory items for the exam day, such as bringing two valid forms of identification as outlined in the exam guidelines. You can find a comprehensive list of requirements and additional information on the official exam website.
Admission Policy
Plan to arrive at your test center at least 30 minutes before your exam start time. To check in for your appointment, the following is required:
* Show two (2) valid, unexpired forms of personal ID (examples include: government issued ids, passports, etc.). Both must have your name (exactly as it appears in your exam registration) and signature, and one of the two must have your photo. For more information about acceptable IDs please visit:
* www.isc2.org/Register-for-Exam and look under What You Need to Bring to the Test Center tab for more information.
* Provide your signature.
* Submit to a palm vein scan (unless prohibited by law).
* Have your photo taken. Hats, scarves, and coats may not be worn for your photo. You may not wear these items in the test room.
* Leave your belongings outside the testing room. You will have access to secure storage. As storage space is limited, please plan appropriately. Pearson VUE test centers do not assume responsibility for your belongings.
* Receive a short orientation from the Test Administrator (TA). After the orientation, the TA will escort you to a testing station.
* Sign and agree to the Non-Disclosure Agreement that will be presented at the beginning of your exam. Please take a moment to review the agreement now so that you are familiar with it when you sit for your exam.
During this process, it is common to feel anxious. Remember to take a breather, drink some water, and relax. The palm scans may take some time, and they may be repeated multiple times.
Once again, I wish you the best of luck with your exam! I'm sure you'll excel.
i failed in CC can i try again free as i used Free access
Thank you for your comment. I'm sorry to hear that your exam didn't go well. It could happen to even the best of us. Don't give up! The exam is not necessarily hard if we spend some time on it. However, it can be overwhelming if we are not familiar with the cybersecurity terms. In addition, having a good grasp of English language comes in handy. Knowing the meaning of words will help us to comprehend the questions accurately can make a significant difference in the exam's outcome.
Regarding your concern about using a second free voucher code, according to my friend who contacted ISC2 customer service, doing so might result in our membership being revoked. Even if we use a different email ID or reuse the existing voucher, we need to keep in mind that they have a copy of our Gov ID’s, scanned our palms, took pictures for identification as part of the exam.

@My Life Talks: Did you pay $50 fee immediately after passing the exam or is it free for 1st year ?
Congratulations on passing your examination! You should know that (ISC)² provides free training through an online self-paced course available for six months and pays for your exam administration by providing you with an exam code to use. However, please note that maintaining your certification requires an annual fee of $50.
To clarify, the training materials and exam are 100% free, but becoming a member and obtaining the certificate will cost you $50 per year. Passing this examination is the first of three steps toward earning your certification.
The next step is to complete the online application within nine months of your exam date. While work experience is not required to earn the CC designation, completing the application verifies that you have read and understood the (ISC)² Code of Ethics.
Once your application is completed, the final step is to pay your first Annual Maintenance Fee (AMF). Once your AMF payment is made, you will earn your certification. However, if you already hold an (ISC)² certification or associate status, you will not have to pay an additional AMF for your latest certification.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact ISC2 Support at membersupport@isc2.org or +1.866.331.4722.
It's worth noting that while certification bodies must ensure the relevance and value of their certifications through ongoing updates, some may be motivated by profit, which can result in increased membership and maintenance fees. As such, lifetime free certifications are becoming less common in the industry.
can i give the exam at home?
As of now, the ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity (CC) exam is only available at authorized Pearson VUE test centers. Unlike Azure and Google Cloud training, which offer the flexibility of taking exams from home, the CC exam requires in-person testing at a designated location.
During the CC exam, you will be required to undergo biometric verification, including facial and hand scanning. This is a standard security measure to ensure exam integrity and prevent cheating.
All the best for your exam!
0:28 You should take full credit for passing the exam. I am sure it was difficult. I really, really like you being modest (not many people genuinely are modest these days), but you will have problems because in a culture that actively promotes bragging and showing off for nothing, your modesty will be perceived as lack of confidence and self- esteem. I wish you every success 😊
