New CompTIA A+ exams 220-1101 and 220-1102 are on the horizon
The new material in CompTIA’s Certification Exam Objectives for A+ 220-1101 Core 1 and 220-1102 Core 2 will be released within a few months. If the latest Network+ revision is any guide then the modifications to the exam objectives will center mostly around security and the cloud/virtual, as well as mobile devices. We should know with more precision shortly as the new exam objectives should be released soon. For those of you who are interested in the current A+ exams i.e. 220-1001 & 220-1002, click here.
Network+ Exam N10-008 Exam Objectives

We have released the new Network+ N10-008, you can see it here.
Security+ Exam SY0-601 Exam Objectives
How different is the new Security+ SY0-601 compared to the old SY0-501?
The new material in CompTIA’s Certification Exam Objectives for Security+ SY0-601 centers mostly around the Cloud, mobile, and the challenges posed to internal security when allowing third-party access.
They say you can make statistics say whatever you want it to say and that holds, to a certain extent, true when it comes to analyzing the difference between the new Security+ and the old one.
So four new subdomains out of 33 and were looking at just a bit over 12% added content to cover, right? Wrong, because here, as in so many other situations, the devil is in the details.
Looking closer you will notice that (including the four all-new sub-domains) 22 out of the 33 sub-domains in SY0-601 have seen some content added. Now we are looking at a 66% difference! This of course is going a bit far in the other direction but does demonstrate that a superficial analysis, is yet again, not going to give you the whole story. So we have to look beyond just the sub-domain level. Just for clarity here is how the terminology works:
| Example of CompTIA objectives listing | Our terminology |
| 1.4 Given a scenario, implement common protocols and services. | Sub-domain |
| • Protocols | Topic |
| o IPSec | Sub-topic |
We prefer “Main-objective” for the top-level objective and “Sub-objective” instead of Sub-domain. However, in the interest of clarity and minimum confusion, we use “Domain” because that is what CompTIA uses in their “Certification Exam Objectives” document. To get these documents to click on the following links: Exam Objectives for SY0-501 and Sy0-601.
So back to our analysis, the new exam objectives have a total of 307 Topic items and 339 sub-topics. How many of those are new? There are in all 61 Topic items and 128 new sub-topics. This means that 20% of the Topics are new while 36 of the Sub-topics are new. This is quite significant. The exam has a maximum of 90 questions, with 128 new sub-topics you could arguably (although agreed, that would be extreme) sit for an exam that has none of the content of the “old” SY0-501 exam. Here is another superficial fact, but this may not lead to the wrong conclusion, the Certification Exam Objectives for SY0-301 is 16 pages while the new Certification Exam Objectives document for SY0-601 is 23 pages long…
