Great Resource
Just passed SY0-701 with an 802. While this was not my only resource, it was definitely a good one!Watched through Messer’s course, then read this after. What a great way to supplement my learning! Having 2 different author perspectives and some repetition of the exam objectives really helped bring this one home.Even if you don’t like to read, simply skimming this book, taking notes of the key points outlined, and utilizing the practice quizzes and pre/post exams provided makes it worth alot more than what it costs.Don’t just take my advice, look at all of the other positive reviews. If you are still wondering whether or not this book is worth it, please just buy it and you will see. You won’t be disappointed.

Phenomenal Resource
Used this book as my primary study resource. Having no background in information security I was able to pass my CompTIA Security+ 701. Itâs very helpful it lays out the exam objectives covered in each chapter. I read a chapter a day and made extensive notes based of the objectives covered in each. Took my exam and passed in less than two weeks. This will be a go to whenever I need as well with the helpful important topics at the end of each chapter that can be reviewed easily. Canât recommend this book enough!!

Boring, even at 30,000′
This is more of a strike against sec+, a cert I have to get for a job with nothing to do with 99% of what’s covered in the book. It’s sad that all of this information is generic enough to cover a vast array of topics, but not at any level of detail to glean useful information from in the field. This is a John Everyman cert, and quite boring to be honest.The book itself is well laid out, has plenty of gotcha practice questions, but by chapter 5, I’d prefer to withdraw my job off acceptance in lieu of getting my life back.1/31/2024 Amended to add: after completing the text and taking the practice exams, I would like to say that the book did a good job of preparing me for the exam and I was able to pass on the first attempt. I would recommend it to anyone that needs to prepare for the exam.

Clear to understand
This book is easy to understand. However, it lacks great structure. When you wish to reference some topics in the index, you find that some key points from CompTIA’s core objectives are missing. I wish that books like this would ensure that core objectives are measured and indexed for easy reference and review. However, I would definitely recommend anyone interested in Security+ buy this book besides this fact!

Awesome book to study with.
This book is awesome. This is my second book from this author. I was about to get my certification fairly quickly using this book. The layout of the book is easy to follow and the information is explained well. Iâd recommend this book to anyone interested in security+.

I wasn’t overly impressed with the information provided in this 701 study guide. I didn’t feel the exam objectives were clearly explained enough.

Nicely laid out and good explanations of concepts. It has a really nice set of self assessment questions at the end of each chapter, and these actually furthered my understanding. Easy to read, good quality paper the book feels robust. Happy with the purchase.

Having looked at the 701 objectives in this book, it appears that there is information missing. I wouldn’t recommend this book.
