Exam: Splunk Enterprise Security Admin (SPLK-3001)

[AliMaher]

Hello Splunker,

I hope you all are doing well. 

I prepare to take the SPLK-3001 Exam, and I want to know the Self-Study guide, and the Version of the ES? is it V7 or V8?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @AliMaher 

I colleague of mine recently took the SPLK-3001 exam and was based on ES 7.x.

For self-study, I'd recommend using the official Splunk Enterprise Security Certified Admin Exam Blueprint which lists all tested topics and recommended learning paths - this will help focus on which areas are covered in the exam and allow you to tick off what you've learnt.

The example questions in the Study Guide are about ES7 (the most obvious differentiator between those two is notables vs. findings). It is a normal practice for Splunk certifications and trainings to not rely on the most bleeding edge versions of software since there are often older versions in use in the real world.
