It's a pleasure. The intent is to help with a thought process that tends to help quite a lot with CompTIA's exams. What's annoying with quite a few questions is how you need to make some presumptions, and if you don't know when to stop, you can argue that all options are right. Thankfully there are straightforward questions to balance it out.
Just passed my Sec+ today, this was probably the best Q&A i found. You address the issue we face of multiple answers being right by deducing each answer choice to figure out what the best answer might be. Thank you!
Fantastic! Thanks for letting me know. That process of elimination works really well, especially when you get into tougher exams. Enjoy your achievement - you earned it.
Just passed my Sec+ 701. Make sure you know how routers and VPNs work. Also all the abbreviations... Also know all the ports... Also know everything about network and cloud... And remember you can only miss about 10 questions max or you will fail. Good luck!
Caps lock doesn't make your arguement better. The question was who can get away with more before being detected, not so much about skill. The malicious insider has a major advantage of having a trusted identity and can avoid detection as long as they act within or mostly within their job duties. No matter how skilled an APT group is, they have little to no insight into the organization, and as I said in the video, if they make one small mistake, they will create an alertable indicator. Another thing to consider is that despite how impressive a threat an APT is, any organization is at greater risk of a malicious insider than an APT, yet so many security teams put most of their focus on external attackers.
Trying out this video, I missed 7 questions. Really need to look at port numbers. I'll need to see if there's an easy way to remember the port numbers and the stuff using them would be a great help.
Hopefully my video helps. For port numbers, you can hop onto www.comptia.org/certifications/security , if you scroll to the exam details, you can download the official objectives. What you can do is go through the objectives, and each protocol you see, write it somewhere, get it's port number and so forth. Sadly, there is no easy way to remember it that brute forcing it into your head.
Hello! I just got to know about your channel from reddit and I am glad i found something good and educational 😊. I have started watching your videos and i have your videos will remain here or it will get deleted? I don’t know why i asked this tho!! But thank you so much for uploading all these quality educational videos ❤.
I'm not planning a rug pull or anything like that with these videos. I'll always be upfront about what I am up to. These videos will remain here unless someone tires to abuse the copyright claim system, which I would love to see them try. If you're enjoying my stuff, then you might want to check out my buddy, Burning Ice Tech. He nudged me into doing this, and has more courses available than I do. He's been at it a little longer than me. www.youtube.com/@BurningIceTech Hope you enjoy it, and that it helps you pass the exam. I built the content around understanding concepts rather than memorizing details.
Congratulations on the pass. CompTIA has PenTest+ if you want to continue with CompTIA. If you want to look at a vendor that is more focused on penetration testing and has a while journey (instead of just one cert) EC-Council and Offensive Security come to mind. You may want to do some research on which of those two, or even others, are more popular with employers where you live.
@@darkbirdtech8023 I made this comment before I took it, but yes I did! It was the thought process you used that really helped me. Thank you DarkBirdTech.
@@darkbirdtech8023 I made this comment before I took it but yes I did! This video helped a lot, and I look forward to utilizing your Network+ materials. Thank you.
Yeah, that Network+ Series is taking longer than it should, but it's my own fault for doing it the way I did. Hopefully I'll have it all done by the time N10-008 retires and N10-009 takes over. The cool thing is, the way I'm tackling it, I can make that content survive version changes, and serve as foundation for things like CCNA.
So funny enough, i took some practice exams for cysa and pentest and i actually got a higher (80%) score on those than the 601 practice exams. Hopefully i do better on 701. Also thanks for not having an indian accent, it helps.
You might do better with the 701 exam. I feel it is a bit easier compared to 601, which had way too much overlap with CySA+. I have Indian family (through a relative's marriage), so I can do the accent pretty well if you like ;)
I assume you mean SY0-601? I did the series with 701. The questions should still help, but I would encourage you to seek out content designed for SY0-601 for a better guarantee that it will align with that exam's objectives. You have till sometime in July this year to do SY0-601.
I am using an AI art generator to make the images. Requires quite a few attempts to get what I am after. Sometimes I am lucky and get something better than I had in mind. Once I have that, I spend time touching it up and fixing the AI hallucinations, like the freakish hands or two pupils in one of the eyes. I've had some absolute nightmare fuel sometimes that gives my friends and I a good laugh.
As much as I'd love to pay someone to make them for me, I don't have that kind of money yet. So if it weren't for this, I'd be using boring stock photos. At least with this, I can make something distinct. So far it seems to be working.
How easy or hard an exam is will be personal and subjective. Where someone finds an exam hard, another person may find the same exam easy - we all have a different lived experience, even with the same things. I did put together these questions to give a good approximation of what the exam is like on average, without giving actual exam questions and answers. If you find what is in this video easy, you could be ready for the exam, but I would encourage checking some other content creators for similar SY0-701 practice questions and see if you still find it easy. If so, you should be good for the exam. Only you can tell whether you're ready or not.
Firstly, it would be boring as hell for both of us if I just lectured the questions and answers. Main reason I do it this way is I want to show you all how I approach questions for the exam. For obvious reasons, I cannot give actual Q&As (even if I had them), so showing the thought process will help no matter the question.
It's particularly helpful to see how others deduce the answers on multiple choice questions.
Thank you!

Passed my Security+ exam today! Thank you so much for your videos, they helped alot.
Awesome! I'm so glad it helped. Now go celebrate!

Question 14 answer is APT ...... APT IS MORE SKILLED THAN insider threat
Caps lock doesn't make your arguement better.
The question was who can get away with more before being detected, not so much about skill. The malicious insider has a major advantage of having a trusted identity and can avoid detection as long as they act within or mostly within their job duties.

I would almost agree with APT, but your argument for Insider being a slightly better answer is compelling.
Trying out this video, I missed 7 questions. Really need to look at port numbers. I'll need to see if there's an easy way to remember the port numbers and the stuff using them would be a great help.
