CND practice questions - frequently asked questions

Plain answers about how CND Exam Prep works: the exam, the questions, pricing, the free trial, and what you actually get.

No - and you should be wary of any site claiming otherwise. Every question here is original, written to mirror the style, difficulty, and judgment the real CND exam tests. Each one comes with a plain-language explanation of why the right answer is right and the others aren't.

The CND exam spans 8 domains: Network Defense Management (10% of the exam); Network Perimeter Protection (10% of the exam); Endpoint Protection (20% of the exam); Application and Data Protection (10% of the exam); Enterprise Virtual, Cloud, and Wireless Network Protection (15% of the exam); Incident Detection (10% of the exam); Incident Response (10% of the exam); Incident Prediction (15% of the exam). Every practice question on this site is tagged to one of these domains.

The domains are not weighted equally on the exam. By share of the marks: Endpoint Protection 20%; Enterprise Virtual, Cloud, and Wireless Network Protection 15%; Incident Prediction 15%; Network Defense Management 10%; Network Perimeter Protection 10%; Application and Data Protection 10%; Incident Detection 10%; Incident Response 10%.

The CND exam has 100 questions and is completed in 4 hours. Our timed practice mirrors that length and pacing, so exam day feels familiar.
