What is the CompTIA Security+?
CompTIA Security+ is a certification from CompTIA, an IT industry association. It covers the core of security work: threats and how to reduce them, secure design, day-to-day security operations, and security management and risk.
It is vendor-neutral, so what it covers applies across different products and systems.
Who is the CompTIA Security+ for?
CompTIA Security+ suits you if you want a first role in cyber security, such as a security analyst or security administrator.
It also suits you if you already work in IT support or networking and want to move toward security.
What does it take to earn the CompTIA Security+?
CompTIA does not set formal prerequisites, but it recommends networking knowledge and some hands-on IT experience before you sit the exam. You earn the certification by passing the exam.
Security+ stays valid for a set period. You renew it through CompTIA's continuing education program.
Requirements can change. Check the CompTIA website for the current details before you plan.
