Description of the training: CompTIA Security+ Certification Training Course: Foundational Cybersecurity & Official Exam Included
This “CompTIA Security+: Foundational Cybersecurity & Official Exam Included” training course prepares you to earn the international CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) certification, which recognises core information-security skills. The lessons cover key concepts such as network security, cryptography, access management, threats and security operations. Hands-on practice, exam simulations and multiple-choice quizzes help you master the exam objectives. By the end, you will be ready to sit the official exam and validate your expertise. Earning this certification strengthens your credibility in IT and cybersecurity roles. Also discover our CompTIA A+ Certification training course, our CompTIA Network+ Certification training course, our CompTIA Cloud+ Certification training course and our CompTIA Linux+ Certification training course.
Good to know
This training course includes numerous exercises (60% practice) for better learning. Sessions are guaranteed from a single registration (except in cases of force majeure). A preliminary interview is held between the participant and/or a company representative in order to properly take into account the participant’s profile (level, needs, professional context, challenges, etc.). Assessment: during the course, the trainer evaluates participants’ progress through quizzes, role-play scenarios and hands-on labs. Participants receive a certificate of achievement at the end of the training course. This training course is part of our CompTIA Certification training catalogue. Discover all our CompTIA certification paths to have your IT skills recognised by an international certification.
Objectives of the training: CompTIA Security+ Certification Training Course: Foundational Cybersecurity & Official Exam Included
By the end of the training course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the core principles of information security: confidentiality, integrity and availability.
- Identify threats, vulnerabilities and common attack types (malware, phishing, ransomware, etc.).
- Secure networks and communications (firewalls, VPNs, segmentation).
- Apply cryptography and key management (encryption, PKI, HSM, certificates).
- Implement identity and access management (MFA, access policies, privileged accounts).
- Run security operations and respond to incidents (detection, monitoring, forensics).
- Prepare effectively for and pass the official CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam.
Prerequisites of the training: CompTIA Security+ Certification Training Course: Foundational Cybersecurity & Official Exam Included
- Basic knowledge of IT administration, systems and networks (recommended but not mandatory).
- Around two years of experience in system/network administration is recommended to maximise the chances of exam success.
- The CompTIA Network+ certification is a plus but not mandatory.
- Because every participant is unique, a personalised interview with our expert lets us design a training course perfectly aligned with their objectives, level and professional challenges.
