Course Details

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.

This comprehensive eLearning course prepares students for the CompTIA CASP+ exam, which covers the technical knowledge and skills required to conceptualize, design, and engineer secure solutions across complex enterprise environments. It involves applying critical thinking and judgment across a broad spectrum of security disciplines to propose and implement solutions that map to enterprise drivers while managing risk.

This CompTIA CASP+ course includes the following features:

• Instructor-led demonstrations and visual presentations to develop your skills based on real-world scenarios.
• Unlike a live class, you can fast-forward, repeat or rewind all your lectures. This gives you all the benefit of hands-on training with the flexibility of doing it around your schedule 24/7.
• FlashCards and Education Games are also provided throughout the course.
• Practice exams prepare you for your exams. These exams are on average 100 questions to ensure you are 100% prepared if you are taking a certification exam.
• You can also interact and collaborate with other students through our forums, student contributions and announcement features.
