A coworker at my government IT job alerted me that CompTIA was offering a $50 USD beta exam for their PenTest+ certification. This relatively new info security certification usually costs $370 USD. I scheduled my online exam for Memorial Day to give myself six weeks of studying time. I ordered the “CompTIA PenTest+ Certification Bundle” eBook for $50 USD from Amazon. Make sure that you subscribe to my channel and have the notification bell turned on. I’m planning to make several videos about my journey to get this certification. It’s been 16 years since I last took a certification exam.
