Читать книгу CASP+ Practice Tests - Nadean H. Tanner - Страница 12

We recommend you use this book in conjunction with CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner+ (CASP+) Study Guide. Read through chapters in the study guide and then try your hand at the practice questions associated with each domain in this book.

You should also keep in mind that the CASP+ certification is designed to test practical experience, so you should also make sure you get some hands-on time with the security tools covered on the exam. CompTIA recommends the use of NetWars-style simulations, penetration testing and defensive cybersecurity simulations, and incident response training to prepare for the CASP+.

Additional resources for hands-on exercises include the following:

 Exploit-Exercises.com provides virtual machines, documentation, and challenges covering a wide range of security issues at exploit-exercises.com/.

 Hacking-Lab provides capture-the-flag (CTF) exercises in a variety of fields at www.hacking-lab.com/index.html.

 The OWASP Hacking Lab provides excellent web application–focused exercises at www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Hacking_Lab.

 PentesterLab provides subscription-based access to penetration testing exercises at www.pentesterlab.com/exercises/.

Because the exam uses scenario-based learning, expect the questions to involve analysis and thought, rather than relying on simple memorization. The questions in this book are intended to help you be confident that you know the topic well enough to think through hands-on exercises.
