CompTIA Security+ Training Kit (Exam SY0-301) 1st Edition

The blue cover makes it stand out from all the other books. The leather-man tool brings me back to a comfortable place with not many worries from the past. Having to slice food products while sitting around a campfire can be a burden without the proper tool. That said I have only gotten through a few chapters in this books and since I haven't read any other study guides on this exam I cannot really compare it against much. It is however written in the same way that the 5 volume MCSE study guide was when I attempted to study for it back in 2000. It is very interesting if you can keep your mind from drifting off onto any other topic that your inherent A.D.D. throws at you.

Easy to read, it helps if you already have a networking and security background.

It helps a lot to pass Security+ exam

Very nice! This kit covers what you need to know in order to pass the exam; it is well written, and easy to read on the Kindle. Security must be the first priority when setting up any company dealing with the web. What company doesn't deal with the web at least part of the time? This book covers so many aspects of the web that while you won't be an expert at the end, you are certainly well on your way.You will need to cover a lot of ground in order to pass the exam, but with this book, you certainly have an excellent chance of doing so. I actually took a test before starting this review. I wanted to know how extensive the questions were. Below are the type of questions:Network SecurityCompliance and Operational SecurityThreats and Vulnerabilitiesapplication, Data and Host SecurityAccess Control and Identity ManagementCryptographyLet's face it, if we want to be security minded, we can't just talk the talk. We also have to walk the walk. In other words, are for real and know you're talking about so that you can help people with security issues? Or are you just hot air with no idea of how to do what you just said?The only thing I saw wrong is the fact that if you buy the digital book, there is no link to get the CD contents that accompany the kit. The link in the PDF doesn't work, so I called the following number: 1-800-998-9938 / 707-827-7000; Or you can email [email protected]

Otro libro de la serie que tiene Microsoft Press para preparar los exámenes de certificación de la CompTIA. Como siempre, son obras de referencia, muy completas y bien estructuradas. Como excelente training kit que es, tiene tips importantes para el examen, preguntas rápidas en medio de los capítulos y cuestionarios (con sus repuestas) al final de los mismos. Además, por si te ha parecido poco y quieres seguir repasando, el libro está acompañado con un CD cargado con más preguntas.Como recurso educativo es muy bueno, y no solo para presentarse a la certificación, sino para aprender más sobre seguridad. Sin duda, una obra muy interesante a tener en cuenta.Por contra, hay que decir que el que mucho abarca poco aprieta. Vamos, que la información tiene poca profundidad. No en vano, esta certificación es de entrada en el sector y tampoco se espera un nivel mayor del que se muestra en el libro. El libro se ajusta perfectamente a los requerimientos del examen.Por otra lado hay que recordar que esta es una de las certificaciones ha convertido en 'temporales'. Esto significa que caduca a los 3 años y tienes que volver a examinarte o apuntarte a un programa que tienen de evaluación continua. Para mi, sinceramente, es una manera de sacar dinero.Direct from google translator ->Another book in the series that has Microsoft Press exam preparation CompTIA certification . As always, reference works, very complete and well structured . As it is excellent training kit has important tips for the exam, quick questions among the chapters and quizzes ( with answers ) at the end thereof. Also, if you think little and want to continue reviewing the book is accompanied with a CD loaded with more questions .As educational resource is very good, and not just submitted for certification , but to learn more about safety. Certainly a very interesting work to consider .On the other hand , I must say that you all trades . Come on, that information is shallow . Not surprisingly, this certification is input in the sector and not expected a higher level than is shown in the book. The book fits perfectly to the requirements of the exam.On the other hand we must remember that this is one of the certifications has become ' temporary ' . This means that expires in three years and you have to re- examine you or sign up with a program of continuous assessment. To me, honestly , is a way to make money .
