Overview
The CompTIA Security+ exam will certify the successful candidate has the knowledge and skills required to install and configure systems to secure applications, networks, and devices; perform threat analysis and respond with appropriate mitigation techniques; participate in risk mitigation activities; and operate with an awareness of applicable policies, laws, and regulations. This course will help delegates prepare for exam SY0-501 - released on October 4, 2017. Updated November 2019.
Prerequisites
CompTIA Security+ is aimed at IT professionals with job roles such as security architect, security engineer, security consultant/specialist, information assurance technician, security administrator, systems administrator, and network administrator.
Ideally, you should have successfully completed the 'CompTIA Network+ Support Skills' course and have experience of networking support or IT administration. It is not necessary that you pass the Network+ exam before completing Security+ certification, but it is recommended.
Specifically, it is recommended that you have the following skills and knowledge before starting this course:
Know the function and basic features of the components of a PC.
Use Windows Server to create and manage files and use basic administrative features (Explorer, Control Panel, Server Manager, and Management Consoles).
Operate the Linux OS using basic command-line tools.
Know basic network terminology and functions (such as OSI Model, Topology, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, switches, routers).
Understand TCP/IP addressing, core protocols, and troubleshooting tools
Learning outcomes
This course will teach you the fundamental principles of installing and configuring cybersecurity controls and participating in incident response and risk mitigation.
Study of the course can also help to build the prerequisites to study more advanced IT security qualifications, including CompTIA Cybersecurity Analyst (CSA)+, CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP), and ISC’s CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional).
On course completion, you will be able to:
Identify network attack strategies and defences.
Understand the principles of organizational security and the elements of effective security policies.
Know the technologies and uses of cryptographic standards and products.
Identify network- and host-based security technologies and practices.
Describe how wireless and remote access security is enforced.
Describe the standards and products used to enforce security on web and communications technologies.
Identify strategies for ensuring business continuity, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery.
Summarise application and coding vulnerabilities and identify development and deployment methods designed to mitigate them.

Many train, but few pass!
Why?
“At the start of every class, I ask for a show of hands, to indicate who intends to take the exam? Typically 20 out of 22 student will raise their hand. Checking back 12 months latter only 1 from 2 classes (44 students) will have successfully passed the exam” (Martin Dyer)
So many reasons why. They are all valid and will all get in the way you your success.

"Let the buyer beware"
Latin for “Let the buyer beware”. CompTIA and Microsoft course-ware buyers need to know what makes a good training course and what to avoid.
The Issue
Too many books that accompany CompTIA training are not fit for purpose.
Beware that many course providers use their own or out of date course-ware. Download our course quality checklist before buying any CompTIA course.
Poor or old (GTS) CompTIA course-ware will not help you become a good technician or pass the exams.
Choose what book would you like your delegates to take away from the course?
Unfortunately both books fail to meet the current CompTIA standard, one is just poor imitation of a study guide and the other is now too old and out of date.
Some training companies will save money at your expense either by producing cheap versions of the book or using old stock.
GTS have ceased trading following being bought out by CompTIA. GTS was the market leader in authorised CompTIA courseware. The good news is that the GTS experts are now employed directly by CompTIA and produce the CompTIA Official courseware that is guaranteed to cover 100% of the CompTIA exam syllabus.
