How I learned Security+

I graduated with a BS in computer engineer, minor in computer science and math. I successfully completed CompTIA Security+ Certificate during 2017. I have been working as a system Engineer for a while and planning to return to school for MS in IT and MBA. I am here because coding is a passion of mine and money is not a primary concern. I will be happy to go through your projects with you and work things out.

I got Security+ certificate as it is becoming more obvious that even developers must be knowledgeable in this area

Challenges I faced?
