CompTIA A+ Certification Examination

In order to obtain the CompTIA A+ Certification, a candidate must pass two examinations: CompTIA A+ Essentials Exam 220-701 and CompTIA A+ Practical Application Exam 220-702. The CompTIA A+ Essentials Exam tests entry-level IT professionals for their understanding of computer technology, networking, and security as well as their communication skills. The Practical Application Exam assesses the knowledge and skills covered in the Essentials exam in a more hands-on approach.

CompTIA A+ Certification course is an intensive but highly interactive five-day training program. This course uses a combination of lecture and scenario-based team and individual activities to best present the material and prepare the learner for both CompTIA A+ Certification exams. Once you successfully complete this course, you will be able to:
Recognize the components of personal computers
Identify the functions of operating systems
Implement the best practices set forth by professional computer technicians
Install and configure PC and system components
Provide maintenance and locate problems in peripheral and system components


Each exam lasts for 90 minutes and has 100 questions. In order to pass and be eligible for the CompTIA A+ Certificate, a candidate must secure at least 675 marks on the Essentials Exam and at least 700 marks on the Practical Application Exam. The exam questions are created by trainers with years of extensive CompTIA A+ training experience and are constantly updated to make sure they are current.

DDoS Attack Mean for My Security?

You need to prepare and plan to manage a DDoS attack against your systems. You need to monitor, generate alerts, and quickly diagnose a DDoS attack in progress. The next step is shutting down the attack quickly without affecting your users. You can block the IP addresses using your Next-Gen Firewall, or close inbound traffic to the targeted system and failover to a backup. There are other response plans you can implement, make sure to have one. Some CDNs, like Cloudflare, also act as a reverse proxy which can further protect your WordPress site from DDoS attacks. An HTTP Flood attack, for example, is an application layer attack that targets a web server on the target and uses many fast HTTP requests to bring the server down. Think of it as pressing the refresh button in rapid-fire mode on your game controller. That kind of traffic from many thousands of computers at once will quickly drown the webserver. Who should consider using a CDN: Most websites can benefit from integrating a CDN

Profiling Hackers in the MITRE ATT&CK Navigator

Using the MITRE ATT&CK Navigator or similar tools, organizations can categorize attacks by specific threat groups and threat actors. It is even possible to profile the technologies and the procedures attackers use. In short, you will have a strong idea of the next move your opponents are going to make. Notice that each of the technologies is categorized into a version of the hacker lifecycle. The top of the page reads Initial access, Execution, Persistence, Privilege Escalation and so forth. These are the general steps that attackers take as they compromise a network. The MITRE ATT&CK Navigator then allows you to profile specific attack groups. Each group profiles an actual group of cyberattackers. Using this model, you can quickly identify how each group operates. Going back to my baseball analogy, imagine if you knew that a group of pitchers behaved a certain way. Now, you can profile that behavior and train your batters to best address how those pitchers are trying to defea

The Importance of Post-Attack Analysis

Comprehensive visibility into an organization’s network activity is essential not only to quickly combat DDoS threats, but also to enable compliance reporting and archive security event data that enables security audits and forensic analysis of past threats. Organizations can learn from past attacks to uncover hidden patterns of data and identify emerging vulnerabilities within the massive streams of security event data Without this level of visibility, it is impossible to determine how effectively an attack was mitigated and whether there were any false-positives which led to collateral damage that substantiates any service level agreement (SLA) claims. For over a decade, Corero has been providing state-of-the-art, highly-effective, automatic DDoS protection solutions for enterprise, hosting and service provider customers around the world. Our SmartWall®  DDoS mitigation solutions  protect on-premise, cloud, virtual and hybrid environments.   Moreover, cloud-based DDoS defenses a
