This book, however, gave me all of the information I needed to solidly pass the exam! The initial assessment questions were useful to identify areas of particular weakness, and I used the results to focus my studying. The practice questions both in the book and in the supplemental materials provided online were essential, ESPECIALLY the ones that demonstrated how the "exercise" category of questions would work. Taking the time to complete every offered question after reading the chapters was a great way to drive home the lessons. I appreciated the summarizations at the end of each chapter, which focused on especially important bits of information to know before taking the exam. I also appreciated the extensive list of acronyms at the end of the book. As is often the case, knowing the meaning of the acronyms allowed for eliminating one or two candidate answers on more than a few of the exam questions. The 10% discount voucher provided with the book makes purchasing the book a cost saver in addition to an excellent study guide. Buying both the book and the exam cost less than buying the exam alone would have cost, which I appreciated. Thank you for providing a well-written, focused study guide. I was happy to pass the exam the first time I sat it, and that success was largely due to the information I gleaned from reading through this book! Review: A solid foundation book for passing Security+ exam - I bought Daril Gibson's book kindle edition which was the best thing I did - it's easily searchable on PC and on my Kindle. Here's how my preparation went and I hope this helps some of you who're looking to take their exam soon. BTW, I passed my exam this week , although not with flying colors, but I PASSED! 1. about 40 days of studying - on average 2-3 hours daily, but about 5-6 hours during last week before test. 2. Used professor messer videos to understand the concepts plus occasionally other few videos on youtube. For example Kerberos, TACACS, 802.1x etc. topics 3. Practice tests from Daril's book are somewhat easy in my opinion - the actual test questions are a lot harder. 4. Also used Mike Chapple's practice test questions , those I found some what harder than Daril's book 5. Jason Dion's short videos on concepts were also helpful. 6. Took my own notes and used them in the last 48 hours heavily. Now about the actual exam: 1. Got 5 performance based question , those were super hard so I skipped them after wasting about 10 mins of my time, completed only 1-2 in the beginning. Use the strategies given by Daril on his blog site. 2. Some multiple choice questions are too lengthy in my opinion and you need time to read and comprehend and then pick the best answer. They are not straightforward , some of them were super tricky , you have to think hard so 1 min for a question sometimes is not good enough. 3. I wish i had little extra time may be another 5 mins so I could complete and review all questions (remember the PBQs will consume your time, I wish I had skipped them entirely in the beginning to save time ) 4. Had to weed out a lot of unrelated choices given in the answers - your fast reading and comprehension skills will come handy here. All in all, this book is a great foundation for your study experience but you must use other resources to take and pass this exam. It's not an easy one! good luck! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #543,324 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #425 in Computer & Technology Certification Guides #1,514 in Computer Science (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 4,787 Reviews | ## Images ![CompTIA Security+ Get Certified Get Ahead: SY0-501 Study Guide - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71odCZi863L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent study tool to prepare for the exam *by J***B on January 28, 2019* The Security+ certification was one that I needed to get for career development, and I was underwhelmed by the online training courses offered to prepare for it.

I previously used the 401 edition as my only resource to pass the exam 3 years ago. [I do have experience + previous training, so YMMV]. I took it for granted at the time, but (having used a few other cert guides since then) I wanted to say that I really appreciate how this book: -Is well written. Concepts are explained clearly, and the chapters are formatted in such a way that they are easy to read and easy to skim/review. -Covers the all the official objectives, and even reference specifically which objectives are covered in which chapter. -Includes two practice tests, as well as 15-question quizzes at the end of every chapter. -Is a great value, at only ten bucks for the Kindle edition! In short, everything a cert guide should be. ## Frequently Bought Together - CompTIA Security+ Get Certified Get Ahead: SY0-501 Study Guide - CompTIA Security+ Certification Kit: Exam SY0-701 (Sybex Study Guide) - CompTIA Security+ Get Certified Get Ahead: SY0-701 Study Guide --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/47659024-comptia-security-get-certified-get-ahead-sy0-501-study-guide](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/47659024-comptia-security-get-certified-get-ahead-sy0-501-study-guide) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-30*
