I am a associate java developer having knowledge and experience on Java, Spring mvc, Spring boot, Hibernate, MySQL. Recently I have joined another IT company. The surprising thing is they are providing training on Scala Programming language .I don't have any knowledge about Scala Programming, Slick and Postgresql. Is Scala developer having good future and demand. Can I better to try for other company to stay in java technology only. EY Infosys Cognizant

Well, likely Sec+ did the heavy lifting in which I used Darril Gibson’s book. For CISSP I read the 11th hour CISSP book the month prior to test and memorized the Sunflower Study guide 2.0 (pdf on google) the night prior. Boom. Passed on question 100. I could have gotten lucky on questions, but my background is in NIST with 2 years of security experience
Hey OP. Care to share how you prepared for it?
Not too technical for me, no protocol numbers or key sizes. I’d hit the glossary hard and know protocol /encryption acronyms, what they do and where they fall on the network stack / crypto schema (e.g. symmetric / asymmetric). There are a ton of questions you can get right by eliminating acronyms that have nothing to do with the question
This is interesting. I think you can attest a lot of this to your NIST experience and the fact you studied exactly what you needed. 11th hour and sunflower. Good job!
How “technically heavy” did you find the exam? I’m a bit weaker in networking/cryptography areas and I’m trying to decide how much more I should study.
Is there a qualification process to verify that you meet the requirements?
Hey OP, I’m looking at getting the Security +. Any hints on lead time for studying and materials you used? Don’t have too much work experience in the area since I’m looking to transition into it.
How was security+ easier. It boggles my mind. I studied for 3 days and passed... cIsSP took 6 months ...
AS1 two months with Gibson’s book: read each chapter carefully, re-read the tricky parts, memorize the nitty gritty deats
A1 they updated Sec+ to the 500 level from the 400 level which may explain why you had an easier time. Now it has you reviewing logs, analyzing code - it’s petty hard! CISSP felt like it was more generic best practices, which is easier to reason through on the spot
Wtf really? What kinda logs do they have u looking at? Pcaps????
What kind of code do you need to analyze in the Security+ 500?
