CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) is an advanced-level cybersecurity certification for security architects and senior security engineers charged with leading and improving an enterprise’s cybersecurity readiness.
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.
Unlike other certifications, CASP+ covers both security architecture and engineering – CASP+ qualifies you to assess cyber readiness within an enterprise, and design and implement the proper solutions to ensure the organization is ready for the next attack.
You will get the knowledge required to:
- Architect, engineer, integrate, and implement secure solutions across complex environments to support a resilient enterprise - Use monitoring, detection, incident response, and automation to proactively support ongoing security operations in an enterprise environment - Apply security practices to cloud, on-premises, endpoint, and mobile infrastructure, while considering cryptographic technologies and techniques - Consider the impact of governance, risk, and compliance requirements throughout the enterprise
Number of Questions Maximum of 90 questions Type of Questions Multiple-choice and performance-based Length of Test 165 Minutes
