CompTIA announces updates to Security+
by Brent on Nov.12, 2008, under CompTIA, Security+
The Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) has announced updates to its vendor-neutral Security+ certification exam, which became available in the middle of last month. The new certification, which is still based on a single Security+ exam, places more emphasis on addressing, mitigating and resolving specific security issues, rather than simply recognizing the various vulnerabilities and security issues.
As a result, a new SY0-201 Security+ exam will replace the current SY0-201 exam. The latter will be retired at the end of July 2009. The new exam is also available in German, Japanese, Chinese and Korean, in addition to English.
