braindump

jargon

ops culturegovernance & risk

A verbatim collection of leaked real exam questions, sold or shared so candidates can memorize their way to a certification.

The dark economy of the certification world. Using dumps violates every vendor's exam agreement, gets certifications revoked, and produces paper cert-holders who collapse at the first real device. The word also has an innocent sense - writing down everything you know before leaving a project - so context matters.

Also known as: brain dump, exam dumps
