Description

You will learn the technical details of the cybersecurity field, including cyber threats, secure network architecture, risk management, the ability to perform log analysis, configuration assessments, and more.  

The CompTIA CySA+ (Cybersecurity Analyst+) (CS0-002) certification is a vendor-neutral certification that validates your knowledge and ability to conduct intermediate-level cybersecurity skills.

This certification fills the gap between the entry-level CompTIA Security+ exam (for those with about 1 year in the field) and the advanced-level CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (for those with at least 5 years in the field).

This CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-002) course is designed for IT Security analysts, vulnerability analysts, threat intelligence analysts, or anyone who is trying to get a better understanding of the concepts involved in conducting cybersecurity analysis, to include threat management, vulnerability management, cyber incident response, security architecture, and the toolsets associated with these cybersecurity efforts.    

By the end of the course, you will be comfortable with the technical tasks required of a cyber security analyst and be ready to take on the role of a cybersecurity analyst in your organization!

This course is designed to help prepare you for the CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-002) certification exam and covers all five domains:

  • Threat and Vulnerability Management (22%)
  • Software and Systems Security (18%)
  • Security Operations and Monitoring (25%)
  • Incident Response (25%)
  • Compliance and Assessment (13%)

A great course. I feel better prepared for the exam. The practice test was challenging which is a good prep for the actual test, the practice test forced me to go back and review sections and additional research on understanding the scenario-based questions.
