Synopsis

Description

CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) is a vendor-neutral security certification. It validates advanced-level core technical skills, including active management of security engineering, operations, incidents, handling enterprise-level risk assessments, and IT governance.

This book navigates the critical domains of the CASP+ exam. It begins by establishing the business and industry context influencing IT security, followed by organizational governance, risk management, and crucial risk mitigation strategies. You will understand enterprise risk measurement, principles of secure architecture, and the practical application of security controls across networks, hosts, storage, and the evolving landscape of IoT and cloud technologies. Furthermore, this book explores application vulnerabilities, the importance of continuous security research, securing communication and collaboration, implementing cryptographic techniques, and mastering IAM. Finally, it covers the vital areas of security operations, incident response, the integration of diverse IT systems, and security considerations in the technology lifecycle; it also includes practice exams to reinforce learning.

This new edition provides a broader coverage of organizational security, including governance, risk, and compliance, as well as a more detailed examination of cloud security and its integration with virtualization.
