Overview

What is CompTIA CASP+ Certification?The CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) certification is a certification for technical professionals who wish to remain immersed in technology, as opposed to strictly managing.CASP+ validates advanced-level competency in the following areas:Risk management, enterprise security operations and architectureResearch and collaborationIntegration of enterprise securityCASP+ is the only hands-on, performance-based certification for practitioners-not managers-at an advanced skill level of cybersecurity. The difference is that while cybersecurity managers help identify what policies and frameworks could be implemented, CASP+-certified professionals figure out how to get the job done.What Is on the Exam?Skills covered in CASP+ address current risks and incident response scenarios inherent with cyber warfare, modern hacking techniques and cloud migration. CASP+ covers the technical knowledge and skills required to conceptualize, engineer, integrate and implement secure solutions across complex environments to support a resilient enterprise. Successful candidates will have the skills to do the following:Support IT governance in the enterprise with an emphasis on managing riskLeverage collaboration tools and technology to support enterprise securityUse research and analysis to secure the enterpriseIntegrate advanced authentication and authorization techniquesImplement cryptographic techniquesImplement security controls for hostsImplement security controls for mobile devicesImplement network securityImplement security in the systems and software development lifecycleIntegrate hosts, storage, networks, applications, virtual environments and cloud technologies in a secure enterprise architectureConduct security assessmentsRespond to and recover from security incidentsThe CASP+ exam covers the following domains and topics:Risk Management: Summarize business and industry influences and associated security risksTechnical Integration of Enterprise Security: Integrate cloud and virtualization technologies into a secure enterprise architectureEnterprise Security Architecture: Analyze a scenario and integrate network and security components, concepts and architectures to meet security requirementsResearch, Development and Collaboration: Given a scenario, apply research methods to determine industry trends and their impact to the enterpriseEnterprise Security Operations: Analyze a scenario or output, and select the appropriate tool for a security assessmentCAS-004 AND CAS-005Exam Codes: CAS-004Launch Date October 6, 2021CASP+ covers the technical knowledge and skills required to architect, engineer, integrate, and implement secure solutions across complex environments to support a resilient enterprise while considering the impact of governance, risk, and compliance requirements.Exam Codes: CAS-005Launch Date December 17, 2024SecurityX (formerly CASP+) covers the technical knowledge and skills required to architect, engineer, integrate, and implement secure solutions across complex environments to support a resilient enterprise while considering the impact of governance, risk, and compliance requirements.
