See what CCOA-certified professionals are saying about CCOA:

“CCOA is highly valuable for cyber analysts because it goes beyond a knowledge-based exam by incorporating a hands-on technical assessment that demonstrates real-world aptitude. This practical approach sets it apart from certifications that focus solely on theoretical knowledge.”
(Clayton Barbier, CISA, CISSP, GSEC, CEH Master, CNDA, CSX-P, Security+, eJPT, PenTest+, CNVP, CIA, CCOA)

"CCOA balances theoretical knowledge and practical skills by combining multiple-choice, scenario-based questions with realistic, hands-on challenges in a live virtual lab environment. This approach tests candidates' conceptual aptitude and ability to apply knowledge to analyze real scenarios. The exam is rigorous and engaging!"
(Gareth Marchant, cybersecurity researcher, consultant, and author)
