CompTIA Just Changed EVERYTHING in the Security+ Exam (SY0-701)

Are you studying for the Security+ from CompTIA? Watch this video first!
Start learning Cybersecurity today! ➡️ www.cybertrain...
One thing that is consistent in Cybersecurity is change. Specifically, certifications in the career field tend to refresh approximately every three years to make sure that exam objectives are still relevant for cybersecurity professionals. Sometimes the exam version refreshes are drastic and sometimes they are merely cosmetic in appearance.
Join me in this video as we talk about the recent announcement for the Security+ from CompTIA and compare the SY0-601 versus the SY0-701 exam versions. We are going to compare the exam domains and I will discuss which exam version you should take.

📜this will be my 3rd round for Sec+ I got my Cert & renewed it twice with CE (continuing education) - I’m hyped to see what’s new… haven’t taken a dive into the contents of this exam yet. PS: I wish everyone a 800 or higher on their exam 💪🏾

What route did you take to get it renewed through CE?

[@marceloarnez1491]

The cert is a checkbox for HR. The content does not matter to hiring personnel. Someone with a 601 and someone with a 701, they're the same.

[@JonGoodCyber]

I recommend against treating certifications like a checkbox because that usually becomes very evident in an interview but yes, just as I said, nobody really cares about the version.

I am so glad I came accross this vídeo! I realized it is not always the best bet to go for "the latest and greatest" when you still have some months befor the old version retire date and better chances to pass since there is lot of more materials available. Simply smart thinking

[@JonGoodCyber]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ap4702]

Im actually glad. Seems to be more focused on actual Security topics that are relevant.

[@JonGoodCyber]

The closer a certification becomes aligned to Cybersecurity, the less appropriate it is for beginners with no experience. It will be interesting to see the next few exam versions and where CompTIA decides to take the certification.

[@cmatz175]

DoD 8570 was alot clearer about IAT levels and certification requirements for DoD personnel. DoD 8140 is a bit more ambiguous and wordy leaving it to interpretation regarding requirements. Some organizations try to leverage that to their advantage.

[@JonGoodCyber]

The idea behind the DoD 8140 is to align better with job requirements and the actual jobs. From an employee standpoint, it's not really all that different but certainly it can get confusing if you start diving too deep into the materials for it. "All of the 8570 certifications did carry over to the 8140 Workforce Qualification and Management Program, and they were aligned to the appropriate DCWF Work Role." public.cyber.mil/wid/cwmp/cwmp-faqs/#toggle-id-2

[@cmatz175]

@@JonGoodCyber Thanks for the reply. It used to be easier because the 8570 would clearly say that in order to be IATII compliant one would need a qualifying IATII certificate (Sec+) to be compliant. Now it is more convoluted with the DCWF work roles and a lack of clearcut 'baseline' certifications.

[@JonGoodCyber]

Here is basically a guide for you that still applies if you want to reference the 8570...all jobs essentially require IAT II or higher (IAT I was rarely ever used)...IAM I or higher for lead and manager jobs (IAM II or higher if you oversee people)...and then the specialty areas of the 8570 apply based on the relevant role.

@@JonGoodCyberI think a local community college offers an associates in CS but no, just doing a bunch of certs and going to try for an entry level or intern job

[@JonGoodCyber]

The reason why I'm asking is because you don't want to just sit around studying and not getting experience. I highly encourage you to try and get an internship or entry level job in either IT or Cybersecurity as soon as possible. Learning new material and skills is great, but the quicker you can start to get any direct or related experience, the better.

[@mahousekey]

@@JonGoodCyber I can apply to get an internship position even though I just started the process of getting my certs???

[@JonGoodCyber]

The requirements for internships are significantly lower than full time and some part time employment. The challenge with internships is going to be than the majority of them typically require you to be a student pursuing a degree, but there are some that do not have that requirement. Apprenticeships are similar to internships and might also be worth looking into, although they are less common in the United States (not sure where you live).

[@xileets]

I bought my 601 voucher in March, and my former prof was involved in writing the 701 exam, so he alerted me it was going to release in Nov. BUT he thought it would invalidate my 601 voucher, so I hurried up to take it... oh well.

[@JonGoodCyber]

It sounds like you passed though so that's great! For future reference, whenever there's a new exam version to be released, certification vendors will specifically say if it's a clean cutover to the new version of if there's a time period where you can still take the previous version once the new version is officially launched. Vendors like CompTIA and Cisco, which label their exams specific versions, really stick to this process and the window is around 6 months. Other vendors like (ISC)2 will instead give a cutover date and don't offer the previous version after that point. The vendors using a cutover date typically give a decent amount of time prior (i.e., 4 to 6 months) so that if you're starting to study the day of the announcement, you'll have enough time.

[@JuiceBoxScott]

There's always an overlap of the previous exam and the new exam. The 601 voucher probably isn't good for a 701 test, it's just that the 601 exam isn't retired until July 2024. After you pass nobody cares what version you took.

[@MousyTTR]

Question for you, good sir. Do you think Google's new Cyber Sec course is as good as Comptia Sec+? Does it teach the same things, and which one is more affordable? I'm really thinking of taking either Sec+ OR google's, but I'm not sure which one would be the best decision.

[@andrewlegare6032]

Google’s certifications aren’t taken seriously in the tech industry. The Security+ is.

[@ReijiNakashi]

I'm currently doing such course, and I was thinking in doing the Comptia Sec+ after I finish the Google one, are you saying they are similar?

[@JonGoodCyber]

The Google Cybersecurity Certificate is not a comparable option to the CompTIA Security+. Certainly there is some overlap as they both are trying to target similar audiences (new to Cybersecurity) but honestly, I have some very strong criticisms of the Google Cybersecurity Certificate. If you are just looking at the cost of the certification itself, then the Google option is less expensive however the return on your investment is also significantly lower. I recommend grabbing my free eBook ( jongood.com/getstarted/ ) where I've included a roadmap of skills and certifications that will set you up for success.

[@JonGoodCyber]

You can take the 601 version until it is retired at the date mentioned in the video, which means nothing will change except having the option of a different version. Make sure you select the correct exam version if you register after 701 is released.

[@steelresilience]

I just wish the Google Cyber Cert was DoD 8750 certified.

That will never happen for a lot of reasons, at least not in its current form. Also the DoD 8570 is no longer the current standard and was replaced by the DoD 8140 several years ago.

[@jovictor3007]

I dont think someone who passed the old one can fail this one.

[@JonGoodCyber]

I'm sure there's situations that show otherwise but generally with back to back exam versions from CompTIA, if you can pass with a fairly strong score on the older version then you should be able to clear the newer version.

[@JonGoodCyber]

You can buy them until that point. Typically, vouchers are valid for 12 months, but obviously, at this point, you wouldn't have the full 12 months to take the exam before it's retired. Remember that you might have a different expiration date if you already have a voucher.

Many CompTIA certifications used to be "good for life" or "GFL" until CE was implemented.

Why are they still using 501 objectives? That's really strange as the exam changed almost 3 years ago but those objectives were released nearly 6 years ago! Anyways, the SY0-701 doesn't even launch until November 2023 but every exam has differences from the previous version. Make sure that you look at the exam objectives for whichever version you are going to attempt to make sure you have covered everything that you need. Personally, I always use the current materials for whichever exam version that I'm going to take as there is too much risk if you don't...but I really don't recommend using two exam versions prior to take the SY0-701 as you are asking for issues.

I wish CompTIA would quit this multiple guess crap and go with practical exams.

[@JonGoodCyber]

Although practical exams provide benefits such as performing specific tasks, they cannot determine all indicators of somebody being able to perform a job in technology, IT or Cyber Security. Multiple choice questions aren't a perfect science, but when done correctly, they can expose a candidates inability to use deductive reasoning and analytical thinking to answer questions (not perform a task). Many times this is done with limited information, and is a very real world situation. The career field isn't just about answering questions or performing certain tasks...it requires the ability to do both.
