Cyber Security – CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601)

CompTIA Security+ is a global certification that validates the baseline skills you need to perform core security functions and pursue an IT security career.

CompTIA Security+ is the first security certification IT professionals should earn. It establishes the core knowledge required of any cybersecurity role and provides a springboard to intermediate-level cybersecurity jobs. Successful candidates will have the following skills:

• Detect various types of compromise and understand penetration testing and vulnerability scanning concepts
• Install, configure, and deploy network components while assessing and troubleshooting issues to support organizational security
• Implement secure network architecture concepts and systems design
• Install and configure identity and access services, as well as management controls
• Implement and summarize risk management best practices and the business impact
• Install and configure wireless security settings and implement public key infrastructure

The CompTIA Security+ exam focuses on today’s best practices for risk management and risk mitigation, including more emphasis on the practical and hands-on ability to both identify and address security threats, attacks and vulnerabilities.

CompTIA Security+ is an international, vendor-neutral certification that demonstrates competency in:

• Network security
• Compliance and operational security
• Threats and vulnerabilities
• Application, data, and host security
