Episode 69 — Exam-Day Tactics: A calm mental model for triage, time, and confidence (Domains 1–4)

This episode provides exam-day tactics built around a calm, repeatable mental model for triage and time management, so you can answer CDPSE scenario questions decisively without getting pulled into distracting details. You’ll learn how to quickly identify the domain and the underlying objective being tested, then filter answer choices by what is most defensible: clear ownership, actionable controls, measurable evidence, and lifecycle-aware impact reduction. We’ll practice how to handle common traps such as “legal-sounding” answers that lack implementation, “security-only” answers that miss privacy obligations, and overly broad actions that do not fit the scenario’s constraints. You’ll also learn a simple pacing method for flagging and returning to hard questions, plus a sanity check approach that confirms your final choice aligns with risk reduction and auditable process. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com, where you’ll find more cyber audio courses, books, and information to strengthen your educational path.
