will the proffessor ever make security+ videos?

I really don't see a point, Darril Gibson - Get Certified Get Ahead: SY0-201 Study Guide is all you need. I am sure there is room for improvement, but Darril lays it out and trust me I scored higher on the Security+ then I did on the A+ or the Network+. And I studied in less time for the Security+ then I did for the others. No offense to the Professor, but Darril's book works.

thanks. but is that just a book or a set of free videos? i will look for it. i have ok experience with computers and it took me a month to get through the network+ and another month for the a+. do you think secururity + can be done in 2 weeks of study time then?

by the way if you have the videos can you please post a link? thanks

Darril Gibson - Get Certified Get Ahead: SY0-201 Study Guide is a book, and fine one at that. It's pretty straight forward, read the book and pass the exam. He doesn't try to teach you everything about Security, just the basics to pass the Security+ exam. With A+ and Network+ there is a fine line between knowing and not knowing the info. Security+ is tricky, and Darril does a great job of making you understand the core info. Lets just put it this way, 6 months of study for A+, 3 Months for Network+, and 3 weeks for Security+. And I scored higher on Security+ then I did on the others. Given that some info from A+ and Network+ is needed to grasp the concepts in the Security+.

Yes you can do it in two weeks. I read the book in two weeks, then took another week and went back through and scanned topics that weren't solid in my mind. I am a little slower then most people at reading and grasping concepts. But I know that and I due extra work to help me. Also Darril has a few video's on Youtube covering hard to grasp topics, like HTTPS and SSL, Encryption, Hashing, and Digital Signatures.

Since you already have A+ and Network+, Security+ isn't that much of a stretch. Just dig into the book and make plenty of Flash Cards. I will say the exam was a trip, I felt as if it might have been easier to me then Network+. But I really can't say if one was worse then the other. I was very surprised by my final score.

thanks, you are right about the material. i am using the labsim software to learn the security+ material and it seems very easy so far, i am moving at least 3 times faster than the a+ or network+. thanks for all the info
