That's a wrap - OCI Certifications 2021

Hi all,

I decided to take all the 2021 OCI exams to check what changed and guide people in the process of taking these certifications.

Well, not all the exams. I will do only the ones that I did in 2019/2020 and are the things that I work on a day-to-day basis. 🙂

And all done 🥳

How to study for 1Z0-1104-21 - Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Security 2021 Associate

 Hi all,

I decided to take all the 2021 OCI exams to check what changed and guide people in the process of taking these certifications.

Well, not all the exams. I will do only the ones that I did in 2019/2020 and are the things that I work on a day-to-day basis. 🙂


Some questions on this new exam are very similar to 1z0-1070-21!
Not sure what they will do in the future, I think if Oracle is planning to maintain both exams, these exams should be more specific on some topics.

A good start point is here:

Reading the Official documentation is always a plus for the exams:


I also recommend you to take a deep look at network features, peering, NSGs, SLs, connectivity, and how they relate to security. Don't forget to go deep on Vault, Keys, Secrets, etc.

10 minutes before I sat down for my exam, I found they published the practice questions.
So, no time for a try! And then, I'm not sure if these questions will help on the exam :)
But it's always good to take a look:





And last but not least, stay away from Brain Dumps!

Best of luck
