101 Labs - Book Series

Experts agree that we retain only 10% of what we read but 90% of what we do. Perhaps this explains why the global pass rate for most IT exams is a ghastly 40%. This is where the 101 Labs book series can help. We are revolutionizing how IT people train for their exams and the real world with our Learn - By - Doing teaching method.

101 Labs' mission is to turn you into an IT expert by doing instead of reading. Using free software and free trials, our experts take you by the hand and walk you through every aspect of the protocols and technologies you will encounter in your IT career. We share our configuration tips and tricks with you, as well as how to avoid the common mistakes many novice engineers make, which can quickly become career-ending.

101 Labs - CompTIA CySA+

The CompTIA Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+) engineers are trained to apply behavioral analytics to networks and devices to prevent, detect, and combat cybersecurity threats through continuous security monitoring. This course prepares you for the new CySA+ (CS0-003) exam.

The CySA+ engineers can apply advanced methods to networks to improve the overall state of security by identifying and combating malware and advanced persistent threats (APTs), resulting in enhanced threat visibility across a broad attack surface.

Passing the CySA+ exam will validate an IT professional's ability to proactively defend and continuously improve the security of an organization. The CySA+ credential verifies that the successful candidate has the knowledge and skills required to:

• Leverage intelligence and threat detection techniques
• Analyze and interpret data
• Identify and address vulnerabilities
• Suggest preventative measures
• Effectively respond to and recover from incidents

CompTIA CySA+ meets the ISO 17024 standard and is approved by the U.S. Department of Defense to fulfill Directive 8570.01-M requirements. It is compliant with government regulations under the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA). Over 2.3 million CompTIA ISO/ANSI-accredited exams have been delivered since January 1, 2011.
