CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner
Course Code: CO-CASP+
CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) is the ideal certification for technical professionals who wish to remain immersed in technology as opposed to strictly managing. CASP+ is the only hands-on, performance-based certification for practitioners, not managers, at the advanced skill level of cybersecurity. While cybersecurity managers help identify what cybersecurity policies and frameworks could be implemented, CASP+ certified professionals figure out how to implement solutions within those policies and frameworks. The CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner certification validates advanced-level competency in risk management, enterprise security operations and architecture, research and collaboration, and integration of enterprise security.
This course is designed for IT professionals in the cybersecurity industry whose primary job responsibility is to secure complex enterprise environments. The target student should have real-world experience with the technical administration of these enterprise environments. The target audience includes the following:
- Cyber Security/IS Professionals
- Information Security Analysts
- Security Architects
- IT Specialist
- Cybersecurity Risk Managers
- Cybersecurity Risk Analysts
Before attending this course, delegates must have achieved the following requirements:
- A minimum of ten years of experience in IT administration, including at least five years of hands-on technical security experience.
- While there is no required prerequisite, CASP+ certification is intended to follow Security+ and CySA+ or equivalent experience.
After completing the CompTIA CASP+ course, delegates will have the skills and knowledge to:
- Enterprise Security domain expanded to include operations and architecture concepts, techniques, and requirements
- More emphasis on analyzing risk through interpreting trend data and anticipating cyber defence needs to meet business goals
- Expanding security control topics to include Mobile and small form factor devices, as well as software vulnerability
- Broader coverage of integrating cloud and virtualization technologies into a secure enterprise architecture
- Inclusion of implementing cryptographic techniques, such as Blockchain-Cryptocurrency and Mobile device encryption
