Passed CC yesterday! Resources I found helpful.

Cyberstarter52 — Sat, 07 Sep 2024 20:25:18 GMT

I just passed the Certified in Cybersecurity yesterday. This forum had some helpful tips and resources I seen before taking the exam so I wanted to also share what I found helpful for me. I hope it helps someone and best of luck to everyone on their way to certification.

I provisionally passed CC today!

I have been casually studying for Sec+ and also have a service management cert ITIL but have no IT experience. I started with ISC2 CC free self paced material. Many have stated they didn't believe it was enough to pass alone so most would recommend using supplemental resources. These are the ones I found most useful.

Sec+ study guide in case anyone is moving this direction. I can't attest to this making or breaking what I know but since I mentioned it, I wanted to link it.

How did you find the questions on the CC exam?

Were they more similar to the straightforward questions found in the final assessment on the ISC2 website, or did they resemble the more detailed and complex questions typically seen in the certprep materials?
