If you are waiting to hear back about the results of your Cybersecurity Defense Analyst Certification Beta Exam, we were targeting mid-October.  Due to unforeseen circumstances, the exam scoring has been delayed. As of today, we expect to share the results in about four to six weeks.

Apologies for any inconvenience and thanks for your patience. You will receive an emailed Score Report from Pearson VUE with a pass/fail result.

If you passed the exam, you will receive the certification and your digital badge, which will come from Credly (admin@credly.com).

Good luck and hang in there as we work as quickly as possible to get these exams scored.

Hi @Staticlolz

Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, the exam results have been delayed and will be available at some point in the last quarter of the year. Apologies for any inconvenience and thanks for your patience.

Hi. I see that taking the official exam is possible from 26 Oct. This means the cutoff score and question etc have all be decided. So why delaying it. Anyway can we take the offical exam from 26 Oct, the people who already gave beta exam and feel they might not pass.
