FAQ – CompTIA Security+ Certification Training
What is the CompTIA Security+ certification?
CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) is the global benchmark certification for entering cybersecurity. It validates essential knowledge: threats, cryptography, IAM, secure architectures, operations, governance, risk and compliance. It is recognised by NATO and many employers.
Security+ or CySA+: which to start with?
Security+ is the recommended generalist foundation before CySA+ (oriented towards SOC analysts). Our MFE-IT training recommends Security+ to begin in cybersecurity, then moving on to CySA+ or PenTest+ depending on the direction (Blue Team or Red Team).
Is the Security+ exam included in the training?
Yes. Our CompTIA Security+ certification training includes sitting the official SY0-701 exam, with a voucher and scheduling support.
How long does it take to prepare for the Security+ certification?
Our Security+ training runs over 4 days (28 hours) in a fully tailored format. This volume covers all the exam domains and the necessary simulations.
