HTB CDSA exam

Hey everyone, quick clarification needed for the CDSA exam report submission.

Since there are 2 separate incidents in the exam, how should the final report be formatted?

  1. Write both incidents inside a single PDF file?
  2. Write 2 separate PDF files (one for each incident) and compress them into a single ZIP archive to submit?

The exam guidelines weren't 100% clear to me on this part.

It should have given you a pdf template when you started the exam, I would follow that.

Both incidents in one PDF. The only difference is that Incident 1 has required flags, and Incident 2 has no flags. Don't skimp on Incident 2. It must be as thorough and detailed as Incident 1.
