I’m relatively new to cyber security. Our head of security is leaving soon and I’ve been asked to step up. Mostly in regard to performing CE and CE+.

Initially I was tasked to take the CSTM but after the exam last week I’m worried it’s a step too far at this point. Haven’t had the results yet but I struggled.

I’m considering doing the VA+ in the first instance at least so we can keep doing CE+ when my colleague leaves.

Thing is... I can find hardly any resources on how to prepare for it and there don’t seem to be any official courses I can go on.

Can someone who achieved VA+ let me know how they prepared? Maybe there are some courses (in person preferred) but I’m struggling to find anything.

Hope you can help point me in the right direction.
