I recently passed the TryHackMe SAL1 (Security Analyst Level 1) certification, but not without failing on my first attempt. In this video, I break down exactly what the SAL1 is, why I initially wasn’t even interested in it, what went wrong the first time, and how I finally passed with a score of 854. I’ll walk you through the exam structure, share tips to help you pass on your first try, and compare SAL1 to the CYSA+. If you're considering this cert or already preparing, this complete guide is going to save you time, frustration, and possibly a failed attempt.
As a cybersecurity professional with over six years of experience, I focus on strengthening digital assets against ever-changing cyber threats. I specialize in penetration testing, ethical hacking, red teaming, and offensive security. I excel at uncovering and addressing vulnerabilities in networks and web applications.
My mission is to make cyberspace better & safer for everyone by committing to lifelong learning, sharing knowledge with the community, and inspiring others to do the same.
