Group Enrollment with Friends or Colleagues | Get a quote

CompTIA Security+ is the world's most popular cybersecurity certification and the recognised baseline for security roles. If you want to move into cybersecurity - the fastest-growing, best-paid area of IT - Security+ is where most careers begin. You will learn to identify and analyse threats, attacks and vulnerabilities; design and implement secure architecture; secure systems, networks, applications and cloud; respond to security incidents; and support governance, risk and compliance. The content is practical and job-focused, mapping to what security analysts actually do. Security+ is approved under the US Department of Defense's 8140/8570 framework for many cybersecurity roles, which makes it essential for government and defence workers and contractors. It is recognised worldwide and is earned by passing a single exam (SY0-701), taken at a Pearson VUE test centre or online with OnVUE proctoring. There is no mandatory prerequisite, though CompTIA recommends CompTIA Network+ and some security experience first.
