Why It's Different

Most study resources are guessing. This one isn't.

CompTIA SecurityAI+ launched in early 2026. There are almost no study materials yet — which means most decks floating around were built from the objectives document alone, without ever sitting the exam.

  • Exam-verified content Built after passing CY0-001 in February 2026 — the question styles, domain weights, and tricky distractors are based on the actual test.
  • OWASP LLM Top 10 & STRIDE emphasis The real exam hammers these frameworks. This deck does too.
  • Distractor-aware The exam uses plausible-sounding but fabricated terminology to trick you. These cards teach you to recognize the real vocabulary.
  • Performance-based question awareness WAF controls, prompt firewall matching, model vs. cloud controls — topics the exam tests in PBQs that most decks skip entirely.

"The exam uses plausible-sounding but fabricated terminology as distractors. If you don't know the exact official vocabulary, you'll pick the wrong answer with confidence."

About
KH
Kevin P. Heaney
Enterprise Firewall Engineer · CY0-001 Certified

I work in the firewall department at a large enterprise, hold CompTIA Security+, and hold a Data Science certificate from Washington University. I passed the CompTIA SecurityAI+ exam (CY0-001) in February 2026 — one of the first certifications of its kind, sitting at the intersection of AI security and traditional enterprise defense.

I'm building these study materials because I wish they had existed when I was preparing. Everything here is drawn from real exam experience, not from reading the objectives PDF.

FAQ

Common questions.

Can't find what you need? Email kevin@secaiplus.com and I'll help directly.

How do I open the Anki deck after I download it?
The deck is delivered as a .apkg file — it won't open on its own. It needs to be imported into the Anki app first. Once imported, all your cards will be ready to study. The import takes about 30 seconds. Follow whichever step fits your setup below.
I have an Android phone. What do I need?
Download AnkiDroid for free from the Google Play Store. Open the app, tap the menu, select Import, and choose the .apkg file you downloaded. That's it.
I have an iPhone and a laptop. What do I need?
No extra cost required. Download the free Anki desktop app at apps.ankiweb.net on your laptop. Open the .apkg file in the desktop app to import it. Then create a free account at ankiweb.net, click Sync in the desktop app, and your cards will be available at ankiweb.net in your iPhone's browser at no extra cost.
I only have an iPhone — no laptop. What do I need?
Unfortunately this is the one scenario that requires an additional purchase. You'll need AnkiMobile ($24.99 one-time) from the App Store. This is an Apple limitation — AnkiMobile is the only way to import a deck directly on iPhone without a computer. Once installed, tap the .apkg file and it will import automatically.
I'm getting "failed to load" when I try to import the deck. What do I do?
This almost always means you're using AnkiPro, not the real Anki. AnkiPro is a different app from a different company, has a paid subscription, and can't reliably import .apkg files. Real Anki has no subscription. To fix it, follow whichever scenario above matches your setup (Android, iPhone + laptop, or iPhone only) using the actual Anki and re-import the deck. If you've confirmed you're on real Anki and still see the error, your download probably didn't complete — re-download the .apkg and try again.
What's the difference between the free deck and the Premium Anki Deck?
The free deck has 25 scenario-based cards covering all 4 exam domains — it's a solid sample of the format and content. The Premium Anki Deck has 150 cards with deeper coverage, more distractors, and more advanced exam tips. Same format, zero overlap between the two.
What's included in the Everything Bundle?
The Everything Bundle includes the Study Guide (43 pages), all 3 Practice Exams (162 questions total), and the Premium Anki Deck (150 cards) — all for $149.99, saving $50 vs. buying everything separately.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes — 30-day money-back guarantee on all products, no questions asked. Email kevin@secaiplus.com if you need one.
