Study Game

Security+ Term Pager

A study game I built to help me prepare for the CompTIA Security+ exam. The Security+ Term Pager covers more than 200 terms and 100 acronyms, from authentication and wireless attacks to malware, social engineering, and cloud security. Everything is written in the CompTIA exam style, so the wording on test day feels familiar.

Ways to practice

  • Lightning round: quick exam-style questions with three lives and a streak.
  • Lookalike duel: two easily confused terms, like OSPF and BGP. Pick the right one.
  • Match board: pair terms with their meanings against the clock.
  • Flashcards: flip, recall, and rate yourself.
  • Acronym decoder: learn what each acronym stands for and what it does.
  • Practice exam: 30, 60, or 90 scenario questions, with an explanation for every answer choice.
  • Performance-based labs: hands-on simulations like the real exam, such as firewall rules, log analysis, and VPN design.

Built to help you learn

  • Missed terms come back more often, worded differently each time.
  • Every wrong answer is explained, so lookalike terms stop blurring together.
  • Pick your topics, drill only your trouble spots, switch the timer on or off, and resize the pager with the minus and plus buttons.
  • No login needed. Your progress and best scores save in your own browser.

ACCESS GRANTED

Level: Shadow. You found the hidden terminal — not everyone looks twice.

There's a well-known figure in the security underground who goes by "Empress." No one's ever confirmed who she really is — only that she's very good at breaking things everyone else said couldn't be broken. Consider this a small nod.

One more thing before you go. This is Caesar-shifted by 3 — shift each letter back to read it:
