CompTIA Security+ exam

 MSPs have always shown resilience through their recurring revenue model, and I believe that they will continue to do so. In fact, I would even go so far as to say that right now, we’re at a point in history that could be called the Age of the MSP.

I recently took—and passed—the CompTIA Security+ exam (Sec+). Sec+ is a general introduction to multiple functional areas of security, ranging from network security to access control and identity management, for anyone looking to break into the space. For context, I have no previous training as a network or security professional, and my educational background was finance and Russian, nothing related to security. So, how much did I really know beforehand, and what steps did I take to prepare for the exam?

Even after almost two decades into my career, I can easily say the MSP Channel is more relevant than ever before – especially when it comes to supporting the SMB segment. I’m sure there will be plenty of more lessons as MSPs keep those businesses safe and secure while working remotely.

And, as a result, we’ll have even more war stories to tell when we see each other in-person at the next CompTIA ChannelCON.
