Only 10 questions about Cyber security but surprisingly difficult.
I missed three. One by rushing and didn’t think it through.
The VPN question, I misunderstood their answer. I use VPN’s and certainly know what they are.
Their scoring is a bit odd. They say I got 91%. Obviously not a true test percentage.
How did you do?
Quiz is at the bottom of the page under materials.
It’s worth reading the test results and correct answers.
The public really should know this material.
I’m kicking myself for not getting 10 out of 10.
Next time I’ll drink my morning coffee before I take a test. 
10 out of 10. But 91% isn’t your grade. You scored better than 91% of those who took the quiz. That’s not a grade.
It’s a bit disturbing to realize how badly their test sample did.
I carelessly missed 3 out of 10 and still did better than 91% of the sample.
??? 13, I only got asked 10. 
now I wonder what the other 3 questions were.
7 out of 10. Two of the missed ones were derps. The last one, about VPNs, was just a NOPE no matter what. D’oh!
10 out of 10, but I work in IT.
Of course, we all scored zero, because question 0 is “should you ever click on a quiz link on a public message board?”
I got 8 out of 10 (better than 96% of the public sample), which makes me think that the public must be awfully stoopid.
10/10, in the top 1% of people who know basic cyber stuff
Great point!
I got 10, but I do security for a living.
Got 9 out of 10 right, better than 99% of the population. The one I failed was the last one, the one about VPNs.
I got 9 out of 10, missing the last question about VPNs.
I looked at the URL (the actual URL, not the text shown in the post) before clicking. I know that pewinternet.org is a legitimate site so that main risk I was taking would be if the site had been hacked. A risk, yes, but that could happen to any site so the only way to completely mitigate that risk is to stop using the internet.
10/10
8 out of 10.
I got 10/10, but saw this message:
I think the writer needs to work on their math skills.
Rounding errors are your friend.
You scored better than 100% of the public of the public and the same as 1%.
I don’t work in IT or Security, but they’ll come around and thrash me if I get this sort of thing wrong, so…
I got 9/10 but their given answer for the first question is incorrect. HTTPS means that the link between you and the site is encrypted. An HTTPS website can still store information locally unencrypted.
I disagree with their answer to question 2 (and yeah, I did get it wrong - why do you ask? ;)). In my mind, “phishing” attacks are strictly those intended to extract login and password information by deception, not any and all attempts to install malware by impersonating a trusted source, and only the ‘fake website’ out of their three answers would necessarily do that - the other answers might just give you a virus. Wikipediaagrees with me and hey, how much more authoritative can you get!
8/10, but I’m going to pretend it was 9/10 
10/10
But I also passed the Security+ exam last month and there were many more questions.
The VPN one is the only one I got wrong. It was between two answers for me, and I chose the wrong one. I have nothing to do with cybersecurity or computers professionally, but I found this test fairly easy. That said, I read enough on the Dope and elsewhere that most of this stuff is discussed somewhere or another.
