Key benefits

  • Become a pro at answering questions from all six of the domains of the SY0-501 exam
  • Learn about cryptography algorithms, security policies, and their real-world implementations
  • Solve practice tests that complement the official CompTIA Security+ certification exam

Description

CompTIA Security+ is a core security certification that will validate your baseline skills for a career in cybersecurity. Passing this exam will not only help you identify security incidents but will also equip you to resolve them efficiently. This book builds on the popular CompTIA Security+ Certification Guide, which mirrors the SY0-501 exam pattern. This practice test-based guide covers all six domains of the Security+ SY0-501 exam: threats, attacks, and vulnerabilities; technologies and tools; architecture and design; identity and access management; cryptography and PKI; and risk management. You’ll take six mock tests designed as per the official Security+ certification exam pattern, each covering significant aspects from an examination point of view. For each domain, the book provides a dedicated cheat sheet that includes important concepts covered in the test. You can even time your tests to simulate the actual exam. These tests will help you identify gaps in your knowledge and discover answers to tricky exam questions. By the end of this book, you’ll have developed and enhanced the skills necessary to pass the official CompTIA Security+ exam.

If you are a security administrator, a system or network administrator, or anyone who wants to pass the CompTIA Security+ exam, this book is for you. This book is an ideal resource for students who want a career or degree in cybersecurity or are studying for the CISSP certification exam.

This book is the next step to certifying for CompTIA’s Security+ Certification. After reading his study guide book, I picked up on the knowledge required to pass the CompTIA Security+ test. This book tied everything in and solidified my understanding. I’m get very anxious on tests and this book will put an end to that anxiety. This is the second step to take prior to taking the Security+ test and will be vital to passing. Don’t forget to read his study guide book first, and can be found here >>> https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07HHC2LGX/ref=cm_cr_arp_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8 <<< I hope he puts together a practice test book for 601!
