The exam fee buys you one attempt at the CompTIA SecurityX. Everything else on your path to certification, revision material included, sits outside this price, and that is where most of the budget of a certification actually goes.

Note from the vendor record: Voucher is single-use for one attempt at Pearson VUE; a failed attempt needs a new voucher unless Retake Assurance was bought up front. Regional pricing and reseller discounts vary. CompTIA reports pass/fail only, no scaled score.
