About this Event

CompTIA Security+ is the most widely adopted ISO/ANSI-accredited early career cybersecurity certification on the market with hands-on, performance-based questions on the certification exam. These practical questions assess your ability to effectively problem solve in real-life situations and demonstrate your expertise to potential employers immediately. It establishes the core knowledge required of any cybersecurity role and provides a springboard to intermediate-level cybersecurity jobs. More job roles use Security+ for baseline cybersecurity skills than any other certification in the industry.

Security+ is the first early career cybersecurity certification a candidate should earn. It equips cybersecurity professionals with the foundational security skills necessary to safeguard networks, detect threats, and secure data through performance-based questions—helping them open the door to a cybersecurity career and become a trusted defender of digital environments. The CompTIA Security+ 701 exam verifies the candidate has the knowledge and skills required to:

Assess the security posture of an enterprise environment and recommend and implement appropriate security solutions.
Monitor and secure hybrid environments, including cloud, mobile, Internet of Things (IoT), and operational technology.
Operate with an awareness of applicable regulations and policies, including principles of governance, risk, and compliance.
Identify, analyze, and respond to security events and incidents.

CompTIA Security+ is compliant with ISO 17024 standards and approved by the U.S. DoD to meet Directive 8140.03M requirements. Security+ also maps to the core objectives required for 20 NICE work roles. Security+ is good for three years from the day of achievement, and the CompTIA Continuing Education program enables Security+ credentialed individuals to extend their certification in three-year intervals.
