@james-ortega LOL, thanks - beat me to it :) I thought it was very timely given the questions re what a pen test is and what a report should include. The original source is here: https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/security_standards/documents.php?document=penetration_testing_guidance

I've not had chance to read it all yet but expect it will raise some more questions for Sean and Mike next week.

Salvadore and James,

We do not have this on our current roadmap for courses but I will add both of your request to our official show request list. Since our shows are based around demand, as demand goes up, it has a better chance of being considered.

In the show notes for Network+ episode 2.3 they go into more detail about it:
Classes
A = N.H.H.H - 1st Number = 1-126 - Starts with 0 16,777,214 Usable IPs
? = Loopback - 1st Number = 127 - Starts with 01111111
B = N.N.H.H - 1st Number = 128-191 - Starts with 10 65,534 Usable IPs
C = N.N.N.H - 1st Number = 192-223 - Starts with 110 254 Usable IPs
D = ?.?.?.? - 1st Number = 224-239 - Starts with 1110
E = ?.?.?.? - 1st Number = 240-254 - Starts with 11110
In the early days of networking, there probably was a reason for this. It's too perfect to be an accident. Remember that the computers don't see the decimal numbers and they don't see the dots, they just see a stream of binary digits. What we see as 192.168.1.100, the machine sees as: 11000000101010000000000101100100
So 25 years ago some very expensive yet underpowered system could look at this address flying by and when it sees the "110" at the front, it knows how to treat this, even without a subnet mask.

Kevin,
Please submit this to the support@itpro.tv or through contact us. This will get into the system for issuing the assessment. Thank you!

Kevin,
Thanks for posting the question!
We had Security Kung-Fu Master, Adam Gordon who hosted the CISSP episodes. He was involved in the development of the new objectives for CISSP. He has stated that his presentation included the material that would cover the new objectives too. But because ISC2 hadn't yet officially published them. ITProTV didn't present it in the new objetive order. So the material is integrated in the current show from our current understanding.
We're also contacting Adam to see if the new objectives includes anything new that wasn't covered during the time of the recording. If so, we will add what is missing to our content to make sure we get the coverage for the newer objectives.

I'm wondering what the final conclusion was to this question? Thanks!

Alexander,
Our courses follow the official exam objectives put out by the vendor or certification organization. We are not allowed to use any other material as the basis of the way we deliver our courses. Most content writers follow a logical development from concepts that you must know and build on so that the material you learn builds up so that the more complex material is near the end. We though, not being book writers we chose the straight forward exam objectives to follow.
So you can use your study material and turn to that section as we go through our material on ITProTV or you can use ITProTV content to supplement the study material you've got on hand!

The show notes for that episode have been posted to the site. Enjoy!

Alexander,
We cannot guarantee that you will pass with just "watching" our content. The content cover every item found in the exam objectives. Even, so we recommend that you purchase a study guide from a seller and use our content to help you to achieve success!
I can tell you that we've had testimonies, some may be listed here in our forums, that people have followed the above path to successfully achieve the CompTIA Security+ certification.

Alexander,
Network+ is not a prerequisite to th Security+ certification. If you're familiar with networking and can configure security settings on network devices, then Security+ is right up your alley. If you're not sure what to configure and where to configure security settings. I would recommend you view the Network+ security as a refresher. If the refresher is foreign sounding and you've not had server experience, you may want the review Network+ and Security+ content.

Daryl,
The legal aspects of intellectual Property and Trade Secrets do tend to go hand in hand. Intellectual Property is the legal right of things people make or invent. Trade Secrets can therefore fall under Intellectual Property rights. Whereas in Intellectual Property, the owner of the intellectual property protect from a others claiming it belongs to them (overly simplistic). Trade Secrets Law bears not specifically because it's owned or created by me but that the value that I derive from the invention or process is based on the secrecy of my invention. This is the delineation that I would make.
This is overly simplistic, the legal ramifications are much more complex and I'm not a lawyer and shouldn't be making any claims to be so!

Hey Michala,
The rest of Mike's show notes for 1.5 have been posted. I'm glad you're enjoying the series. Mike and Wes make a great team and deliver the material really well. Let us know if you need anything else!

Cheers Don,
I'll do that right away!
Tom

I think that answers my question. It seemed like a close line but I placed it as CDAC. thanks.

Ben,
Thanks for sharing with the team! It motivates us, as we're beginning to record the series for the newer SY0-401 exams. The ITProTV team congratulates and celebrates with you on your certification achievement! Well Done!

Jerome,
Thanks for the heads up. It looks like it got left out because it was entered incorrectly originally. I got the web guys to add it to the episode so anyone in the future will see the link there.
Thanks again,

The SY0-401 is now out and we will be scheduling updates shoots to cover any additional content!
