Overview

On this accelerated CompTIA Security Infrastructure Expert (CSIE) course, you'll learn the basics of troubleshooting security incidents and how to mitigate risks. You'll build knowledge on design and create secure solutions across complex business environments.

In just 14 days, you'll combine theory and practice from CompTIA Security+, CySA+, CASP and PenTest+.

Through the CompTIA Security+ curriculum, you’ll learn about infrastructure and operational security via building knowledge on risk analysis and mitigation.

You'll build on your security knowledge with Pentest+:

  • Developing up-to-date penetration testing skills
  • Customise assessment frameworks
  • Report penetration test findings
  • Communicate recommended strategies.

Through CySA+ you'll learn how to configure threat detection tools, perform data analysis and interpret the results to identify vulnerabilities, threats and risks to an organisation.

Lastly, through CASP, you'll establish yourself as an advanced practitioner by creating security solutions across enterprises. This includes enterprise security, risk management, the integration of computing, communications and business disciplines.

At the end of your course, you'll sit exams SY0-401, CS1-001, CAS-002 and PT1-001, and achieve the CompTIA Security+, CompTIA CySA+, CompTIA CASP and CompTIA PenTest+ certifications.

You'll get access to official courseware and learn from certified CompTIA instructors, as Firebrand are a CompTIA Platinum Partner.

Through Firebrand's Lecture | Lab | Review methodology, you'll become a CompTIA Security Infrastructure Expert (CSIE) at twice the speed and achieve CompTIA's Stackable Certification.
