Security+ New Shows

---

Hey Wes, Ronnie, et al,

I notice that you have been filming Security+ shows for quite some time.
Do you have an idea as to when these might be ready to view?
What is the reason for the new episodes?

Thanks

William

@william-fields

To answer my own question: are these shows for the new Security+ SY0-501?

@william-fields,

As we're a CompTIA Platinum Partner, we do get some of the exam objectives earlier than the public release date. Because of this we can research, prepare and try to have content available when CompTIA releases the objectives publicly.

Any content that may be produced on the new objectives will not be available for release until those objectives are released by CompTIA. We stream just about all the content we create live, sometimes, you'll be able to see some of content preparation previewed live.

So, "I cannot confirm or deny any statement without the approval of the secretary. This message will self destruct in 5 seconds...."

Thanks Ronnie, you are a Champ.

By the way, did you ever get network access beyond Satellite bandwidth?

@william-fields,

nope...I live in the telecom blackhole of the universe!

I am a little confused some information says the 401 test retires this year and some say late next year. Can you confirm that the 401 exam will still be available at least until the end of the year to take?

@Brian-Mooney,

Here's word: According to CompTIA's own site:

English Language Retirement of Sy0-401--July 2018
Japanese and Portuguese Retirement of Sy0-401--December 2018

Thanks I read that too. Other sites are saying differently but I was going with the Vendor info.

@Brian-Mooney,

When it comes to it, the CompTIA Partners, like ITProTV. We go with the official information that is is released from them rather than other vendors out there. If they make a change we normally know about it because they tell us early!

Objective release for the new SY0-501 exam will be October 4, 2017.
