CASP+ - CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner

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.

Successful candidates will have the knowledge required 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 defense 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

This certification is a DoD Approved 8570 Baseline Certification and meets DoD 8140/8570 training requirements.
