On the second half of my Sophomore year. After attempting to study for the sec+ I found out about the CC and decided to start studying for that one to understand the basics. Good luck everyone!
Was studying for Security+. Wanted to get practice of giving an exam at a test centre as I haven’t given any exam in the last decade. ISC2 CC is free currently so register for it and passed in January 2024. Got some practice. Gave Security+ a month later and passed. ISC2 CC is a baby in comparison to Security+.
@@PhanabotI’m doing the intro to cyber right now and planned to do about 4 or 5 more of their courses but thinking about stopping and just studying this ISC2 CC but don’t know if i should or not
@@ILLWill1027 ISC2 CC is mostly theory and relatively easy to pass. After the Intro to Cyber by Cisco, the subsequent courses have a lot of hands of labs. It's really up to you what to learn since both provide good foundations, though there is overlapping content between CC & Intro to Cyber by Cisco.
@@Phanabot thanks a lot for your reply! I actually like the Cisco platform and they have so many things on there and like u said with the labs as well i can leverage those on LinkedIn while also just showing different badges and completions to show im really putting in work out here lol my plan is to do a number of the tree training related to cybersecurity and then start studying for the Security+.
While true that Sec+ > CC, there is a lot of overlapping content in the exam questions. Not sure if being certified in both helps, but Sec+ is often listed in job requirements.
Sec+ Materials: 1. CompTIA Sec+ Objectives list and acronyms (Went point by point to understand each topic. Google each item I wasn't familiar with) 2. Get Certified Get Ahead (Read twice. Did all assessments. Was my favorite resource) 3. UA-cam > Certify Breakfast : Security+ Course (Went through all videos once. Was my second favorite resource) 4. All in One Security+ Book (Read once) 5. Professor Messer Videos and Practice exams (Twice through videos and exams) 6. Dion Udemy Course (Used to fill in gaps. Only watched a handful of videos but did do his practice exams) In that order. @@CyberTekGeek

have you got the certificate? I have also cleared exam but I am looking for a method so i can get the certificate without paying AMF. If you know any method for that please help me.
@@jaskaransingh3279 have you cleared the exam, so please suggest some guidance about that exams because I also just recently enrolled for that exam. CC
@@yaduvanshi69371 Yes, I have cleared the CC exam. The basics of the exam will be covered in the training course and quizzes will be there along with each module. Once you finish your training course, you can enroll for an exam at your nearest centre listed on the website. Talking about the exam, It will be a bit more difficult than the quizzes given with the courses, which I wasn't expecting. So if your concepts are clear, you will be able to crack it. That's all from my experience. All the best for your exam 👍
I hate that annual fee. Comptia is a one time payment, why should I have to keep paying to renew my cert? They should make it like comptia to renew it with ceu's or a higher level exam

To me it's a no brainier....the CC was offered for free...the exam gives you more time...and no performance based questions. The course was short and can be finished over a weekend. Vs CompTIA you have to pay almost $600 for just the test and a retake. Their pricing seems way to scammy....you mean to tell me just a test and retake is 800 but if I throw in a study guide that I probably won't use it's only 581? And the whole package with the test, labs, and practice exams is $2500!! We are getting these certs to try and get a job...so why charge money we probably don't have. And just for them to ask you trick questions.... probably to get you to fail to buy the test again. Yea the security+ may be more valuable but it's terribly overpriced in my opinion. I took and passed the CC and now reluctantly taking the security+ exam on 4/15 but I had to have help just to pay for it.
@@tareqaljdoa5172 honestly I just used what they provided....and went through the practice exams like 3 times. To be real the test was moderately harder than the resources they provided so my background in IT probably helped me quite a bit. They don't give you a score but I feel like I barely passed it. I feel like the security+ was easier simply because there are more resources for studying it.
Being in the Navy for 6 years, still having my atice secret clearance and attempting to get my Sec+ cert, do you think I would have a decent chance at getting in? I’m also going to school for cybersecurity but if I can get a job before hand I most likely won’t finish the degree lol
All jokes aside, the CC is a really good one to gain, more so for your own personal growth in the realm of starting cyber. I just recently took it and it wasn’t bad and passed. They go over pretty essential network fundamentals and security concepts that are the backbone of starting in tech/cyber

Did the both this week and passed.
Nice!!
I’m planning on getting both!
Do you think CC is harder?
Thanks for the very informative video! I'm going for CC. Wish me luck!
No worries, good luck!!

Incroyable.
I'm doing the CC because it's free and from ISC2. Next I plan to do all the free cisco certifications
Nice!
I also did the free Ciscos. They have labs too, which is nice to have some hands on practice.

did both. Sec+ > CC
What are you thinking to do next?
While true that Sec+ > CC, there is a lot of overlapping content in the exam questions. Not sure if being certified in both helps, but Sec+ is often listed in job requirements.
Next should be blue team or pentest+ for job preference in CC

1. CompTIA Sec+ Objectives list and acronyms (Went point by point to understand each topic. Google each item I wasn't familiar with)
2. Get Certified Get Ahead (Read twice. Did all assessments. Was my favorite resource)

Cleared CC today after Coursera Google Cybersecurity certification
Nice!
I'm studying for the CC now and plan to take the Sec Plus early next year.
cleared my CC exam today
Congrats!
have you got the certificate?

very well explained. thank you
Note that you will have to pay $50 annually to maintain your CC certification
Basically same as Security+
I hate that annual fee. Comptia is a one time payment, why should I have to keep paying to renew my cert? They should make it like comptia to renew it with ceu's or a higher level exam
Very helpful and practically informative ❤❤ thank you
They both are good foundational certifications in the world of Cyber Security.
Thank you
I cleared my CC one week ago 👌
Nice!
have you got the certificate?
I have also cleared exam but I am looking for a method so i can get the certificate without paying AMF. If you know any method for that please help me.
@@jaskaransingh3279 Not yet, me too am looking a way to have my certificate without paying AMF, lol, but I thing I will finally pay
Did cc and Net+. I am working on Sec+ now.
CC leads to CISSP which is the word's #1 and highest paying certification in the world and compTIA killer.
need 5 years of experience tho
So at work, one of the people in our cybersecurity department recommended that i get CC after i get my sec+
Incroyable.
About to take my cc now
Goodluck!

Yes
Curious where you’re at now
Curious where you’re at now
What is your advice for a beginner, would it be beneficial to enroll in an online course to learn more? ex. Coursera, GMU online courses?
Online courses are a great way to start. Watch this video for some great free ones: ua-cam.com/video/h_9ArASn5sU/v-deo.html
Are there any hands on labs in the CC cert?
No, its only multiple choice
No it's all theory.
nice comparism but you didnt talk about the cost, i passed my CC and saving up to get the sec+
what shouldn't we doing then??? You never answered that question...
CC vs Sec+ is like a hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby matchup imo😭😭

Plus it was free…
Definitely going after that Sec+ next though fr
can you send the link for CC
Hi, for the CC exam or revision material?

The best basics is A+,Network + and Security+.
Too bad typing isn't as easy for you as Sec+ was.
