Looking for Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Administrator Exam Study Material & Tips For Preparation

[Steven09]

Hello,

I'm planning to get Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Administrator certification. How long will take to prepare for the PCNSA exam as I have little experience of working with the Palo Alto firewall. Where I can get the learning material and a complete study guide? Thanks.

This really depends on how much 'hands-on' experience you already possess: If you've been working all day with Palo Alto devices for the past 6-12 months you will only need a few hours to study up on some of the main topics. If you have no experience at all, it will take you at least a week of full-time study (several weeks if you spread the load to an hour or a few hours per day).

First things first: Here is the link to the official PCNSA exam study guide: https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/assets/pdf/datasheets/education/pcnsa-study-g....

Start learning from the Beacon Study Material for the PCNSA exam.

Then practice comes next. Start practicing with scenario-based PCNSA practice questions as it will help you understand the core concepts, and practice test - an adaptive companion tool that assesses your knowledge and exam readiness to help prepare for the PCNSA exam.

Hope this would help you. Best of luck!
