Study plan

How to pass the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701)

The order that works: learn the rules, drill until they’re automatic, then use the benchmark to check consistency.

  1. 1

    Work threats, vulnerabilities and mitigations first — the largest share of the objectives

  2. 2

    Learn cryptography by purpose: what each primitive protects and where it fails

  3. 3

    Know the governance, risk and compliance vocabulary precisely; items hinge on exact terms

  4. 4

    Practice reading scenario items for the single best control rather than any valid control
