How Do I Start Preparing for the EC-Council 212-89 Exam?

Hey all,
I just signed up to take the EC-Council 212-89 exam but honestly have no clue where to begin. How did you guys start your prep? Are there any solid study materials or practice exams that actually helped?

Yes! I strongly recommend Study4Exam. I used their practice questions and mock exams for my 212-89 prep, and they were spot on.
The questions on Study4Exam are well-structured and give you a real feel of the exam format. It helped me understand my weak areas and practice under exam-like conditions.

Hey there!

From my experience the best way to start is with EC-Council’s official blueprint—get super clear on the domains they test. Then use the official iClass materials or Boson practice tests if available. Many also find success with Cybrary or Skillsoft for structured courses, plus a good mix of YouTube walkthroughs for hands-on understanding.

Make sure you balance theory with scenarios—it’s very situational. Let me know if you want a prep plan!

Best,
Alessa 😊

I used dumpsvibe for my 212-89 prep and it really helped. Their practice questions were super close to the actual exam. Start with the core topics, then use their dumps to test yourself — worked great for me!
