Overview

Firebrand Training CompTIA Authorized Partner

On this 4-day CompTIA Security+ course you'll learn how to troubleshoot security events and incidents, and operate within applicable policies, laws, and regulations.

Provide infrastructure, application, information, and operational security by identifying and mitigating risks. CompTIA's Security+ is a vendor neutral certification developed with input from industry, government, academia and front-line practitioners.

You'll learn about the following CompTIA Security+ topics:

  • Attacks, Threats, and Vulnerabilities
  • Architecture and Design
  • Implementation
  • Operations and Incident Response
  • Governance, Risk, and Compliance

Firebrand Training is an Authorized Partner of CompTIA. This means that you are guaranteed the highest level of instructor and course material, all of which is officially approved by CompTIA.

Residential or online CompTIA Security+ training course

Firebrand offers both a classroom-based and CompTIA Security+ online course, including everything you need to get certified in record time:

  • Official courseware, labs and practice exams
  • CompTIA Security+ certification exam
  • Accommodation, meals and snacks (for residential courses)

Both are delivered through our tried and tested Lecture | Lab | Review methodology. In this day and age, you get to choose the best one for your needs, and get your certification faster than anywhere else.

Seven reasons why you should sit your Security+ course with Firebrand Training

  1. You'll be Security+ certified in just 4 days. With us, you’ll be Security+ trained in record time
  2. Our Security+ course is all-inclusive. A one-off fee covers all course materials, exams, accommodation and meals. No hidden extras
  3. Pass Security+ first time or train again for free. This is our guarantee. We’re confident you’ll pass your course first time. But if not, come back within a year and only pay for accommodation, exams and incidental costs
  4. You’ll learn more Security+. A day with a traditional training provider generally runs from 9am – 5pm, with a nice long break for lunch. With Firebrand Training you’ll get at least 12 hours/day quality learning time, with your instructor
  5. You’ll learn Security+ faster. Chances are, you’ll have a different learning style to those around you. We combine visual, auditory and tactile styles to deliver the material in a way that ensures you will learn faster and more easily
  6. You’ll be studying Security+ with the best. We’ve been named in Training Industry’s “Top 20 IT Training Companies of the Year” every year since 2010. As well as winning many more awards, we’ve trained and certified 134,561 professionals, and we’re partners with all of the big names in the business
  7. You'll do more than study Security+ courseware. We use practical exercises to make sure you can apply your new knowledge to the work environment. Our instructors use demonstrations and real-world experience to keep the day interesting and engaging

Benefits

Other accelerated training providers rely heavily on lecture and independent self-testing and study.

Effective technical instruction must be highly varied and interactive to keep attention levels high, promote camaraderie and teamwork between the students and instructor, and solidify knowledge through hands-on learning.

Firebrand Training provides instruction to meet every learning need:

  • Intensive group instruction
  • One-on-one instruction attention
  • Hands-on labs
  • Lab partner and group exercises
  • Question and answer drills
  • Independent study

This information has been provided as a helpful tool for candidates considering training. Courses that include certification come with a certification guarantee. Pass first time or train again for free (just pay for accommodation and exams on your return). We do not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes.

  1. Threats, Attacks and Vulnerabilities
  2. Technologies and Tools
  3. Architecture and Design
  4. Identity and Access Management
