The CompTIA Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+) is an industry-standard certification for developing the essential skills in becoming a cybersecurity professional. It focuses on fundamental topics in security operations but also goes more in-depth than the CompTIA Security+ .
What the certification exam consists of:
165 minutes in the exam room
Up to 85 multiple choice and performance-based questions
Passing score of at least 750 on a scale of 100-900
Exam prep and tools I used:
Jason Dion's CySA+ CS0-003 Udemy Course (<$20 on sale)
Jason Dion's CySA+ CS0-003 Practice Tests (<$15 on sale)
CompTIA CySA+ Exam Objectives (free)
Sybex CySA+ Study Guide ($40)
YouTube (free)
CompTIA CySA+ Exam Prep app on the App Store
Although I am trying a wide range of study materials, the objectives in this certification seem close to what I learned in the Security+ and my university courses. I am very excited to continue my cybersecurity journey and work toward another achievement in tech.
