What is CompTIA SecurityX (formerly CASP+)?

CompTIA SecurityX is the new name for CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+). CompTIA renamed the certification when it released the CAS-005 exam in December 2024. SecurityX is an expert-level certification for senior security professionals who design and build security solutions for complex enterprise environments.

The CAS-005 exam has a maximum of 90 multiple-choice and performance-based questions and lasts 165 minutes. It is scored pass/fail, with no scaled score. This CertOcean course covers every exam domain with live, instructor-led sessions and hands-on practice.

What will you learn in SecurityX training?

You will learn to set up security governance and manage risk and compliance, design resilient and secure architectures for on-premises, cloud and hybrid environments, troubleshoot identity, endpoint and network security issues, use automation and cryptography to protect the enterprise, and use monitoring, threat hunting and incident response to detect and stop attacks.

Why get CompTIA SecurityX certified?

SecurityX is one of the few expert-level security certifications that tests hands-on skills with performance-based questions. It suits practitioners who want to stay technical, and it helps security leads prove they can plan and carry out security across an entire organization.

What are the CAS-005 exam domains?

CertOcean's SecurityX course follows the four domains of the official CAS-005 exam objectives:

  • Governance, Risk and Compliance (20%)
  • Security Architecture (27%)
  • Security Engineering (31%)
  • Security Operations (22%)

What are the prerequisites for CompTIA SecurityX?

There are no formal prerequisites for the SecurityX exam. CompTIA recommends at least 10 years of general hands-on IT experience, including at least 5 years of hands-on security experience. We also recommend knowledge equal to CompTIA Network+, Security+, CySA+, Cloud+ and PenTest+ before you start.
