Prerequisites:

To be fit for this advanced course, you should have at least a foundational knowledge of information security. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Knowledge of identity and access management (IAM) concepts and common implementations, such as authentication factors and directory services.
  • Knowledge of cryptographic concepts and common implementations, such as Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) and public key infrastructure (PKI).
  • Knowledge of computer networking concepts and implementations, such as the TCP/IP model and configuration of routers and switches.
  • Knowledge of common security technologies used to safeguard the enterprise, such as anti-malware solutions, firewalls, and VPNs.

You can obtain this level of knowledge by taking the CompTIA©_ Security+©_ (Exam SY0-701) course or by demonstrating this level of knowledge by passing the exam.

 

Target Audience:

CASP+ is for IT cybersecurity professionals with a minimum of 10 years of experience in IT administration, including at least 5 years of hands-on technical security experience.

 

Course Objectives:

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.


CASP+ is an advanced-level cybersecurity certification covering technical skills in security architecture and senior security engineering in traditional, cloud, and hybrid environments; governance, risk, and compliance skills; assessing an enterprise’s cybersecurity readiness; and leading technical teams to implement enterprise-wide cybersecurity solutions.
