Audience
CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) is the ideal certification for technical professionals who wish to remain immersed in technology, as opposed to strictly managing, including:
- Security architects
- Security engineers
- Application security engineers
- Technical lead analysts
Prerequisites
It is recommended that you have a minimum of ten years of experience in IT administration, including at least five years of hands-on technical security experience.
Duration
3 days. Hands-on.
Course Objectives
CASP+ covers the technical knowledge and skills required to conceptualize, engineer, integrate and implement secure solutions across complex environments to support a resilient enterprise.
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 CASP+ certification validates advanced-level competency in risk management; enterprise security operations and architecture; research and collaboration; and integration of enterprise security. The exam (Exam CAS-003) can be taken as part of the course and includes both hands-on, performance-based, questions and multiple-choice.
