CySA+ performance-based questions: what they are and how to practise them

CySA+ PBQs put evidence in front of you — log excerpts, scan output, alert detail — and ask what you conclude. The exam allows 165 minutes for up to 85 questions precisely because these take reading and interpretation. Analysis rather than recognition. A CySA+ PBQ rarely has a single obvious keyword; it asks you to weigh several pieces of evidence and decide which one is decisive, then say what you would do about it.
