Greetings,
I currently hold the A+ certification, and I am interested in pursuing the Network+ and Security+ certifications. The Network+ exam is going to be updated this winter, so I want to wait until the new version comes out. However, I don’t want to wait to pursue the Security+ exam. The website recommends that you take the Network+ exam first, but is this really required? Would I be at a big disadvantage if I do them backwards? I currently don’t have much of a networking background; frankly, I’m not too interested in networking. I am more interested in the security aspect of computer systems. Does that make sense, and can I have one without the other?
