Course Description

Course Description

CompTIAs S+ certificate is globally recognized for validating foundational, vendor-neutral IT security knowledge and skills. Led by certified instructors, students gain essential knowledge of the principles for network security and risk management with competency in the following:

Organizational security

System security

Access controls

Network infrastructure

The S+ certification by CompTIA is an internationally recognized credential ensuring ground-level security proficiency as well as skills for organization and security professionals to provide information, infrastructure, application and operational security. These courses prepare the student for the CompTIA S+ Certification Exam SY0-401.

What You Will Learn

The curriculum for CompTIAs S+ Certification Course begins with supplemental material covering pre-requisites to complete the SY0-401 exam course work. After a thorough breakdown of what Security and Information are, we discuss Attacks and Defenses as well as Information Security Careers and the Security+ Certification to give students a wealth of background knowledge before diving intoSystems Threats and Risks. This section covers Software-Based Attacks as well asHardware-Based Attacks and Attacks on Virtual Systems. Once an understanding of various attacks are developed, we look at Protecting Systems by Hardening The Operating System and Preventing Attacks That Target the Web Browser; studying Network Vulnerabilities, Categories of Attacks, Methods of Network Attacks, and Other Attacks and Frauds leads us to Network Security. In theNetwork Security section, students learn how to Craft a Secure Network andApply Network Security Devices. Following similar study formats about Wireless Network Security and Access Control Fundamentals brings us to more practical subjects such as Authentication, Performing Vulnerability Assessments andConducting Security Audits. We finish the course with comprehensive overviews ofCryptography, Business Continuity and, finally, Security Policies and Training. At the end of this course, a student walks away having had practical experience and comprehensive knowledge allowing confident execution of the CompTIA S+ SY0-401exam.

This course is seriously highly recommended.

By David Johnson on 7/22/2020

Interesting. Not sure why there is a whiteboard prominent in the video and the instructor is to one side since its never used? Instructor moves around too much, its distracting. (both of these were address later in the lessons). The lessons are all very high level overviews, was hoping to get into some actual details. Only the later lessons have more details and this course if definitely just an over view. Its quite concerning that the teacher has never answered any questions in the Q&A.

So far so good.

great

By Marvin L Cotten on 11/18/2019

Half way in trying to cram as much information as I can. The instructor has more insight with said information than I had originally anticipated. I would need to go back to some sections to actually get the information, but overall I am enjoying the course.

By Juan Pacheco on 6/21/2019

This course like the other courses taught by Timber is straight forward and to the point, it elaborates only on what is necessary to pass the Security + exam.

By Danny Anastika on 4/17/2019

Good but could explain more in detail about certain topics

By Rajat Singh on 4/8/2019

By John Mostellar on 1/15/2019
