CompTIA Security+ SY0-601

In this course, students will implement, monitor, and troubleshoot infrastructure, application, information, and operational security.
Students will prepare for the CompTIA Security+ certification examination ( SY0-601).
Cybersecurity attacks continue to grow.
Increasingly, more job roles are tasked with baseline security readiness and response to address today’s threats.
Updates to Security+ reflect skills relevant to these job roles and prepare candidates to be more proactive in preventing the next attack.
To combat these emerging threats, IT Pros must be able to:

Help identify attacks and vulnerabilities to mitigate them before they infiltrate IS
Understand secure virtualization, secure application deployment, and automation concepts
Identify and implement the best protocols and encryption
Understand the importance of compliance

CompTIA Security+ is the first security certification a candidate should earn.
It establishes the core knowledge required of any cybersecurity role and provides a springboard to intermediate-level cybersecurity jobs.
Security+ incorporates best practices in hands-on troubleshooting, ensuring candidates have practical security problem-solving skills required to:

Assess the security posture of an enterprise environment and recommend and implement appropriate security solutions
Monitor and secure hybrid environments, including cloud, mobile, and IoT
Operate with an awareness of applicable laws and policies, including principles of governance, risk, and compliance
Identify, analyze, and respond to security events and incidents

Course Outline

Attacks, Threats and Vulnerabilities

Focusing on more threats, attacks, and vulnerabilities on the Internet from newer custom devices that must be mitigated, such as IoT and embedded devices, newer DDoS attacks, and social engineering attacks based on current events.

Architecture and Design

Includes coverage of enterprise environments and reliance on the cloud, which is growing quickly as organizations transition to hybrid networks.

Implementation

Expanded to focus on administering identity, access management, PKI, basic cryptography, wireless, and end-to-end security.

Operations and Incident Response

Covering organizational security assessment and incident response procedures, such as basic threat detection, risk mitigation techniques, security controls, and basic digital forensics.

Governance, Risk and Compliance

Expanded to support organizational risk management and compliance to regulations, such as PCI-DSS, SOX, HIPAA, GDPR, FISMA, NIST, and CCPA.
