Overview
As the name implies, CompTIA’s Advanced Security Professional or CompTIA CASP+ (plus) Certification is primarily aimed at managers as well as professionals. The course assists in comprehending cyber security policies and frameworks, as well as how to implement them in an organization.
This course will teach you how to execute solutions within cybersecurity policies and frameworks, assess cyber preparedness within a business, and create and implement appropriate solutions to guarantee the organization is prepared for the next assault. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the American National Standards Institute both recognized the CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) certification (ANSI).
What Makes CompTIA CASP+(Plus) Certification Unique?
CASP+ is the only hands-on, performance-based cybersecurity certification for advanced practitioners — notmanagers — at the advanced competence level. While cybersecurity managers assist determine which cybersecurity policies and frameworks should be adopted, CASP+ certified professionals find out how to put such policies and frameworks into action.
Unlike other certifications, CASP+ covers both security architecture and engineering – CASP+ is the only certification on the market that qualifies technical leaders to assess enterprise cyber readiness and design and implement appropriate solutions to ensure the organization is ready for the next attack.
CASP+ is an advanced-level cybersecurity certification that covers technical skills in security architecture and senior security engineering in traditional, cloud, and hybrid environments, as well as governance, risk, and compliance skills, as well as assessing an enterprise’s cybersecurity readiness and leading technical teams to implement enterprise-wide cybersecurity solutions. Candidates who are successful will have the knowledge necessary to:
- To support a resilient enterprise, architect, engineer, integrate, and deliver secure solutions across complicated settings.
- Monitor, identify, respond to incidents, and automate to proactively support ongoing security operations in a corporate context.
- Apply cloud, on-premises, endpoint, and mobile infrastructure security procedures while keeping cryptographic technologies and methodologies in mind.
- Consider the effect of governance, risk, and compliance needs across the organization.
Security Architecture (29%)
Coverage has been expanded to assess security needs in hybrid networks in order to work toward an enterprise-wide, zero-trust security architecture using sophisticated secure cloud and virtualization technologies.
Security Operations (30%)

CompTIA’s Continuing Education (CE) program allows you to keep your certification up to date. It is intended to serve as ongoing confirmation of your competence as well as a tool for expanding your skill set. It’s also your ace under your sleeve when it comes to taking the next step in your profession.
Make the most of your qualification.
Every day, new possibilities and problems emerge in the realm of information technology. Participating in our Continuing Education program will allow you to stay up to date on new and growing technologies while also maintaining your status as a sought-after IT and security expert.
CompTIA Continuing Education program
Your CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) certification is valid for three years from the day you passed the test. The CE program allows you to renew your certification in three-year increments by participating in activities and training related to the topic of your certification. CASP+ CE, like CASP+, is ISO/ANSI-accredited and hence worldwide recognized.
It is simple to renew.
To renew your CASP+ certification, you can participate in a variety of activities and training programs, including higher certifications. In three years, collect at least 75 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and upload them to your certification account. When you do this, your CASP+ will automatically renew!

Frequently Asked Questions
The CASP certification, although covering the essential subject, is “a mile long and an inch deep.” As an alternative to Security+, the CASP certification may be a good place to start for businesses and government agencies.
The CISSP certification is the more challenging of the two, and it is also costlier than the CASP certification. In the coming year, CASP will be the highest priority certification.
After completing the exam on screen, the results are displayed immediately on the screen, and an email is sent with the pass or fail result.
At first glance, the CASP and CISSP certifications appear to be quite comparable, however this is not the case. Despite the fact that they cover a lot of the same ground, these two certifications are not interchangeable.
CySA+ validates critical knowledge and abilities for preventing, detecting, and countering cyber threats. The CASP exam is a worldwide recognized evaluation of advanced security knowledge and abilities.
