CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 full course. 9 hours covering all five exam domains at their published weights, including the performance-based questions, plus a full practice exam.
Security+ is scored 100-900 and you need 750. That is not 83 percent. It is a scaled score, and you cannot work out how many questions you got right from it.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHY THIS COURSE IS BUILT THE WAY IT IS
Most Security+ courses are structured the way the objectives document is numbered: Domain 1 first, longest, most carefully. Domain 1 is 12% of the exam. Domain 4 is 28%.
So this course is weighted the way the exam is weighted, not the way the syllabus is numbered. Every scenario names the word that decides the answer and explains why each wrong option is wrong - because on this exam the four options are rarely all plausible, but two of them usually are, and the difference is one qualifier.
The performance-based questions are taught as their own thing, not mentioned in passing. They come first in the exam, they take the longest, and they are where candidates lose the time they need at the end.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
THE EXAM, AS COMPTIA PUBLISHES IT
Maximum 90 questions: multiple choice and performance-based.
90 minutes.
Scaled score 100-900. The minimum passing score is 750.
Current version: V7, exam code SY0-701, launched 7 November 2023.
CompTIA recommends Network+ and two years of experience in a security or systems administrator role. That is a recommendation, not a requirement - nobody checks it at the test centre.
DOMAIN WEIGHTS
1 - General Security Concepts: 12%
2 - Threats, Vulnerabilities and Mitigations: 22%
3 - Security Architecture: 18%
4 - Security Operations: 28%
5 - Security Program Management and Oversight: 20%
Domain 4 alone is more than twice Domain 1. Domains 4 and 5 together are 48% - nearly half the exam - and they are the two that most courses reach last, with the least time left.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW LONG YOU HAVE
SY0-701 retires on 11 June 2027 for the English exam, and 13 August 2027 for Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish and Thai.
That is not urgent yet, but it is the reason to check the exam code on anything you study from. Material written for SY0-601 is still everywhere and still ranks. If a source does not say SY0-701 on it, assume it is the old exam.

ON THE PERFORMANCE-BASED QUESTIONS
They appear at the start. You can flag them and come back - and you should, because they are worth the same as everything else and they will eat twenty minutes if you let them. Answer the multiple choice first, then return with whatever time is left.
Partial credit exists on some PBQs. An incomplete attempt beats a blank one, so never leave one untouched.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW TO USE THIS COURSE
1. Watch in order. Later sections assume vocabulary from earlier ones.
2. Pause at each scenario and commit to an answer before the explanation.
3. Review every wrong answer until you can say why each option is right or wrong - not just which one was correct.
4. Leave several days between your last practice run and the exam. Recall after a gap predicts a pass better than recall on the same day.
