As with all of our CompTIA Training Experiences, exams are delivered in the classroom. CompTIA® Security+ is the primary training course you will need to take if your job responsibilities include securing network services, devices, and traffic in your organization. In this course, you will build on your knowledge of and professional experience with security fundamentals, networks, and organizational security as you acquire the specific skills required to implement basic security services on any computer network.

This includes risk management, host and network security, authentication and access control systems, cryptography, and organizational security.
