Information security threats are on the rise globally. Organizations are increasingly concerned over the lack of adequately trained senior IT security staff’s ability to effectively lead and manage the overall cybersecurity resiliency against the next attack. The CASP+ certification qualifies advanced skills required of security architects and senior security engineers to effectively design, implement, and manage cybersecurity solutions on complex enterprise networks.
The Official CompTIA CASP+ Student Guide (CAS-004) has been developed by CompTIA for the CompTIA CASP+ candidate. Rigorously evaluated to validate coverage of the CompTIA CASP+ (CAS-004) exam objectives, The Official CompTIA CASP+ course teaches the knowledge and skills to understand security architecture, security operations, security engineering and cryptography, governance, risk and compliance, and prepare candidates to take the CompTIA CASP+ certification exam.
The name change from CASP+ to SecurityX will not affect the certification status of current CASP+ certification holders or the continuing education (CE) program. Those with an active CASP+ certification will automatically receive the rebranded SecurityX badge and can download a new certificate and transcript in CertMetrics. Unexpired CASP+ exam vouchers will work for the SecurityX exam.
