CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) Certification (CAS-004)

About Course

The CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) certification is a globally recognized, vendor-neutral credential that validates advanced-level skills in security architecture, engineering, integration, and incident response. This comprehensive course prepares you for the CompTIA CASP+ (CAS-004) exam, covering critical security concepts and practices required of today’s enterprise security professionals. You will learn how to design, implement, and manage secure solutions across complex enterprise environments. The CASP+ certification demonstrates your mastery of advanced security principles and your ability to think critically and apply judgment across a broad spectrum of security disciplines.


What Will I Learn?

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Design, implement and manage security solutions across complex enterprise environments.
  • Assess enterprise security risks and develop strategies to mitigate them.
  • Integrate host, storage, network, application, and cloud security technologies.
  • Analyze security requirements in hybrid networks to work toward an enterprise-wide security architecture.
  • Conduct security assessments using various tools and techniques.
  • Integrate advanced authentication and authorization techniques.
  • Implement cryptographic and security controls for hosts, networks, and applications.
  • Respond to and recover from security incidents.
  • Apply security principles to research and development.
  • Explain the importance of risk strategies and collaboration across business units to achieve enterprise-wide security.

Target Audience

This course is ideal for:

  • Experienced IT security professionals with at least 10 years of IT administration experience, including at least 5 years of broad hands-on technical security experience.
  • Security architects, senior security engineers, and security consultants.
  • Individuals who want to demonstrate mastery of advanced security concepts and practices.
  • Professionals who lead and direct security efforts within an organization rather than executing specific tasks.
