DSST is running a special on the Fundamentals of Cybersecurity exam, which is listed as 3 upper level credits on ACE. Use code CYBER20.

I understand it's a corker unless you have a cybersecurity background though.
BA, MA, EdS, MMT, etc.

Ok, as someone who has taken the exam, it took me moment reading the title to realize 'Fun' meant 'Fundamentals'. My first thought was that you had a really sick sense of humor to try to get someone to take it for fun...

For TESU, Fundamentals of IT is CMP-202 and Cybersecurity is CIS-344, so they don't overlap.

But don't you think "Fun Cybersecurity" sounds cheerful and optimistic lol?
