SecurityX — CompTIA SecurityX
CompTIA's advanced security practitioner certification — rebranded from CASP+ to SecurityX in 2024. Covers enterprise security architecture, advanced threat management, IAM architecture, cryptography, governance, and cloud security at an expert level without requiring management experience. DoD 8140 approved and positioned as the technical expert credential for practitioners who want depth without the management focus of CISSP. Performance-based questions add meaningful practical elements. A strong credential for technical security architects and senior practitioners in government and contractor roles where CompTIA certs are recognized and CISSP management requirements aren't met.
