WGU MSCSIA Week 6: Security Operations and CySA+ Crunch Time

Nov 12, 2024
Another week has gone by and I was able to finish D486 GRC first try! No comment from me except to just follow the rubric. I am not trying to finish a class in a day or in a week because I would like to retain the information I’m learning. When I started this paper, I would try to do a section per day (at least outlining) and then when I feel like it’s good to go, then I have a go at it and write to my heart’s content.

WGU MSCSIA Week 5: Beginning of November

Nov 5, 2024
It’s the beginning of November and I just submitted my paper for D486! I’m about 50/50 on it and I’m sure I’ll get it returned to fix something only because the rubric for was very ambiguous. I think I know what they want but I will see what happens after they review it. I’m pulling through D482 especially the certmaster lessons. I been going through them on my spare time at work and work on the practice quizzes when I can.

WGU MSCSIA Week 4: Almost the end of the 1st month.

Oct 29, 2024
It’s almost the end of October and I’m about to wrap up my 2nd class. I’m still working through the PA and I’m hoping to get it done by October 31st. I started it last week but took a couple days break to hit up some concerts in Los Angeles and San Jose. This paper had more research I needed to do but once I got the materials I needed, it’ll be a breeze!

WGU MSCSIA Week 3: Passed D482!

Oct 22, 2024
Week 3 has finished and got the email this morning that I passed D482! I did have to do a revision and thankfully it was all minor. I only had to fix some things in 2 parts but considering that I haven’t done any paper essays in about a decade I didn’t feel bad at all.For anyone reading. For anyone reading and getting ready to start the course, I would recommend to double check your work and make sure you follow what the rubric needs.

WGU MSCSIA - Week 2: Beginning my 2nd class!

Oct 15, 2024
Week 2 was a breeze. I started my 2nd course which I ended up doing D486 Governance since it’s another paper assessment course. I am listening/watching CySA+ videos while I’m doing the labs and course material to get a head start which I’m hoping to commit to CySA+ by the end of October and be certified in early November! I’m almost done with the paper assessment for D482 and I did a lot of research to make sure I was on the right track.

Time to start classes

Sep 23, 2024
I am now a student at WGU and I begin my Masters journey in less than a few weeks. I’m planning on grinding and hoping to do weekly blog posts to follow my journey as I tackle the MSCSIA program. I’m coming in with the ISC^2 CC transferred as well as Security+ experience (in terms of educational wise). My goal is to finish the paper classes in less than 2 weeks and spend most of my time on the Comptia exams as they are the ones I believe matters most.
