(I have recently joined IQVIA bangalore. I will receive my first month salary on 25th this month. Payroll portal got just created for me. So, I opened.)
In my reports -> My current CTC section. It has details of Current annual & Monthly AGS. My question is what is AGS? It is showing half of my CTC. Should I raise this to HR or it is just something else. And where can we get the actual CTC reflection? Pls help. Thanks in advance.

Yup. By using them. Examine pcaps, setup services on open source stuff. Get your hands dirty. That way it sticks instead of memorizing and forgetting them after the exam. If you’re tactical by any means you will see them constantly in true positive and false positive alerts in the SOC; and troubleshooting in engineering.
Totally agree with you. I got into FAANG mostly on portfolio. These newer folk to the field today didn’t know how hard it was in the 90’s and early 2000’s just to experiment. I ended up having to make a business just to get the partner subscription from MS (action pack) because I couldn’t afford MSDN
It’s been so long I don’t even remember what ports were asked for lol. Protocols I also can’t remember what was there but at least knowing what those are has practical use in the real world. Try to memorize the ports/protocs by cardinality of the port number, or alphabetically. Will be easier to work through when forgetting something.
And you may need them in the real world but absolutely zero need to memorize them in the real world. I’ve never been in a case where I’m on a computer looking at logs, saw a port I didn’t recognize/remember, and then have no way of looking it up.
That plus them being more of a”default” port is something I wish the s+ actually dealt with. Sure ssh is 22 by default but when someone throws it on port 1212 you’re in the same spot as someone who just didn’t memorize that ssh is port 22.
Also unless they changed it, you’ll also want to focus on encryption and hashing there was a ton on block size and how many bits etc. on the more easier end, picking encryption algos out of hashing ones in a multiple choice.
