Description of the training: CompTIA CASP+ Advanced Security Practitioner Certification Training Course (exam included)
This CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) certification training course prepares IT professionals to design, integrate and maintain advanced security solutions in an enterprise context. You will learn to manage risk, apply cryptographic controls, and secure networks, systems and data while responding to incidents. The programme also covers governance, advanced authentication and cybersecurity best practices for complex environments. By the end, you will be ready to sit the official CompTIA CASP+ exam (CAS-004 / SecurityX), included in the course, and validate your advanced expertise. Hands-on labs and real-world scenarios are at the core of this training. Also discover our CompTIA Security+ training, our CompTIA CySA+ training and our CompTIA PenTest+ training.
Good to know
This course includes numerous exercises (60% hands-on practice) for better learning. Sessions are guaranteed from a single registrant (except in cases of force majeure). A preliminary interview takes place between the participant and/or a company representative in order to fully take into account the participant’s profile (level, needs, professional context, challenges, etc.).
Assessment: during the training, the trainer assesses participants’ learning progress through quizzes, role-play and hands-on exercises. Participants receive a certificate of completion at the end of the course.
This course is part of our CompTIA Certification Training Courses catalogue. Discover all our CompTIA certification paths to have your IT skills recognised by an international certification.
Objectives of the training: CompTIA CASP+ Advanced Security Practitioner Certification Training Course (exam included)
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
- Design, integrate and maintain advanced security solutions across complex enterprise environments
- Apply governance, risk management and compliance principles to security operations
- Implement strong authentication, identity management and access control
- Apply cryptographic controls and secure hosts, networks, data and cloud environments
- Lead incident response and forensic investigations

FAQ
What is the CompTIA CASP+ certification?
CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) is an expert-level international cybersecurity certification. It validates security architecture and engineering skills, governance/risk, advanced security operations and enterprise solution integration. It targets professionals with around 10 years of IT experience, including 5 in security.
What is the difference between CASP+ and CISSP?
CISSP (ISC²) has a strong managerial dimension and is highly recognised among CISOs. CASP+ is more technical and hands-on, ideal for security architects and engineers who stay close to the technology. Our MFE-IT training can help you decide based on your background.
Is the CASP+ exam included in the course?
Yes. Our CompTIA CASP+ certification course (CAS-004 / CAS-005) includes sitting the official exam. The voucher and registration logistics are covered.
Does the course cover enterprise security architecture, cryptography and risk management?
Yes. The CASP+ (SecurityX) preparation covers enterprise security architecture, security operations, security engineering and cryptography, as well as governance, risk and compliance (GRC), at an expert/architect level.
What is the difference between CASP+ (SecurityX) and Security+?
Security+ validates cybersecurity fundamentals (technician level). CASP+ / SecurityX is advanced (architect/expert): designing secure architectures, enterprise-scale integration and risk-based decision making.
How long does it take to prepare for the CASP+ certification?
Our CASP+ course runs over 5 days (35 hours) in a fully tailored format. This volume covers the four exam domains with hands-on labs and security architecture case studies.
