What an odd exam! Finished the Cybersecurity DSST a couple hours ago and passed, but barely 409. Granted I probably could have studied harder, things have just gotten crazy at work the past two weeks and I slacked off at studying in the evenings. The array of content is pretty vast but shallow depth. Most of the stuff was at least somewhat familiar working in IT, and having taken other security cert exams, but some of it was really outdated. One question related to a hacking technique specifically targeted at Windows NT, having just taken the CEH exam I was able to rule out things that were attacks I actually had heard of before and had a 50/50 shot from the two that sounded made up.
None the less a pass is a pass in my book.
