Security+ Certification Prep

CompTIA's Security+ is a vendor-neutral certification that validates the competency of security professionals working in the IT industry. The Security Plus Certification confirms a technician's critical knowledge of communication security, infrastructure security, cryptography, operational security, and general security concepts. Because human error is the number one cause for a network security breach, CompTIA Security+ is recognized by the technology community as a valuable credential that proves competency with information security.

Our 4-day Security+ Certification prep workshop measures the necessary competencies for an IT professional with approximately two years networking experience. Participants will learn the knowledge and skills needed to protect your business from the theft or destruction of information or disruption of communication.

This workshop is intended to those preparing for CompTIA Security+ Certification. It is recommended that the Security+ test candidate have the knowledge and skills equivalent of those tested for in the CompTIA A+ and Network+ certification exams.
