Need help on CompTia security exam

Clarifications

One, buy the Security+ book http://www.amazon.com/CompTIA-Security-Guide-Second-SY0-201/dp/0071601279/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1272914637&sr=8-3

and study! The book gives an outline of a good study routine, it all depends on your experience with security.

Little experience? Long hourse of study.

A lot of experience? Not so long. :)

Doing so this way, you will have earned your certificate and learned something.

Brain dumps are a waste of time, especially for the employer.

I earned a couple of CompTia A+ certifications a few years ago. I spent hours and hours studying for them. I passed them both inside of an hour. Right now I probably can't recite anything that was on either test but they weren't gimmes. I'm glad that I got them the hard way.
