Hi, does anyone know if the Certified in Cybersecurity certificate is a higher level of the Security+ certificate? I am currently studying for the Security+ certificate and plan to tackle the CC next.

It would make sense for you to take Certified in Cybersecurity first. Certified in Cybersecurity is truly an entry-level certification. It is recommended that candidates have basic IT knowledge, but no work experience in cybersecurity or formal education is required.
For CompTIA Security+, it is recommended that candidates have at least two years of IT administration experience with a security focus.
Certified in Cybersecurity provides an onramp for newcomers on their path to advanced cybersecurity certifications like the CISSP and future leadership roles. And because the Certified in Cybersecurity training teaches the fundamentals around the terminology and addresses the “why” of cybersecurity, it is an excellent opportunity for candidates to explore whether cybersecurity is a fit for their interests.
Awesome, thank you very much for that information Andrea, that is very helpful.
Hi there,
I'm disappointed with the exam, I took it, and I studied for more than two months, And the exam isn't entry-level. It's the way that the ISC2 platform provides quiesces that aren't similar to the exam. The exam is much more complicated than the test on the forum. I'm unfortunately disappointed with what ISC2 do.
Hey there, I appreciate this blog post! Great info!

If you become Security+ certified, CC would be overkill/unnecessary. If you are a looking for a really comprehensive view of all these certs an how they are perceived, check this:
