OVERVIEW
The CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) certification is designed for experienced cybersecurity professionals. It focuses on advanced-level security skills, making it ideal for practitioners, rather than managers, who want to remain deeply engaged in hands-on cybersecurity tasks.
CASP+ covers a broad range of topics, including enterprise security, risk management, cryptography, governance, and advanced security solutions. It ensures candidates can assess risks, implement security solutions, and manage complex enterprise environments. Unlike other certifications that focus more on management, CASP+ emphasizes technical skills for leading enterprise security operations.
Entry Requirements: Minimum Grade 12; CompTIA Security+ or equivalent experience; 10 years of IT experience, including 5 years of hands-on technical security experience.
Language: Proficiency in English is required, as course materials and support are provided exclusively in English.

Hands-On Certification for Advanced Practitioners
While cybersecurity managers help identify what cybersecurity policies and frameworks could be implemented, CASP+ certified professionals figure out how to implement solutions within those policies and frameworks.
Focus on Security Architecture and Engineering
Unlike other certifications, CASP+ covers both security architecture and engineering
CASP+ is the only certification on the market that qualifies technical leaders to assess cyber readiness within an enterprise, and design and implement the proper solutions to ensure the organization is ready for the next attack.
Up-to-Date Certification for Cybersecurity Leaders
CASP+ is the most up to date advanced-level cybersecurity certification on the market
CASP+ covers technical skills in on premises, cloud native, and hybrid environments, governance, risk, and compliance skills, assessing an enterprise’s cybersecurity readiness, and leading technical teams to implement enterprise-wide cybersecurity solutions.
ISO 17024 Compliance and DoD Approval
CASP+ is compliant with ISO 17024 standards and approved by the U.S. DoD to meet Directive 8140.03M requirements
Regulators and government rely on ANSI accreditation, because it provides confidence and trust in the outputs of an accredited program. Over 3 million CompTIA ISO/ANSI-accredited exams have been delivered since January 1, 2011.
