CompTIA Security+ is absolutely not a joke. And here is why - everyone has to start somewhere. In the process of studying and preparing for the exam properly - i.e. purchasing and reading the books, learning the concepts, learning the terminology - a student is laying the groundwork for advanced certifications. And ultimately the purpose for taking a certification exam is to demonstrate to a potential employer that you have a verified level of knowledge, skills, and abilities; proof that you have put in the time and effort to learn the concepts. Is it possible to pass the exam without understanding the fundamental security concepts that Sec+ is designed and intended to teach? Certainly (and unfortunately) yes. But, for those that do this it will very quickly become apparent to an employer that this is what has happened. And they will just as quickly lose their job - and deservedly so. When given the proper respect it deserves the CompTIA Security+ cert is no joke. Study fr the exam, take the exam, and honor it for what it is - a stepping stone.
