What Is CompTIA Security Plus Certification, and Why Does It Matter?
CompTIA Security+ is a widely recognized baseline cybersecurity certification. It validates the core skills needed to assess an organization’s security posture, secure hybrid environments (cloud, mobile and IoT), follow the laws and policies that apply to security work, and identify, analyze and respond to security events and incidents.
The exam has up to 90 questions in 90 minutes, and you need 750 on a scale of 100 to 900 to pass. See the full Security+ exam details.
Who Should Attend a Security+ Training Class in DC?

Security+ Opportunities in Washington DC and Beyond
Washington DC, Northern Virginia and Maryland are home to federal agencies, the contractors that support them, consulting firms, healthcare systems and technology companies, and all of them need people who can secure systems and respond to incidents. Security+ is CompTIA’s baseline security certification. CompTIA lists it as approved under DoD Manual 8140.03 for a range of cyber work roles, which is relevant if you work, or want to work, on defense-related contracts. It is also recognized worldwide, so it travels with you if your next role is in another city or fully remote.
