Exam candidates schedule the authorized exam directly with Pearson Vue and may attend from any of Pearson Vue's Testing Centers or online.
CompTIA Security+ has globally-recognized ISO/ANSI accreditation status. As part of the accreditation requirements, this certification expires every three years if not renewed.
You can renew certification through the CompTIA CE Program which includes completing continuing education activities. Review CompTIA Continuing Education (CE) Program requirements and approved courses . Note, if your certification is not renewed within the three years allowance it will expire and you will need to pass the current version of the exam to regain CompTIA Security+ certification.
Once you've earned Security+ certification, expand your abilities in the field of IT cybersecurity with CompTIA CySA+ Certification for defensive skills, or CompTIA PenTest+ for offensive skills. Although the two certifications teach skills from opposing sides, they are dependent on one another and the most qualified cybersecurity professionals will have both offensive and defensive skills. These intermediate-level certifications help bridge the skills gap between CompTIA Security+ and CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) to create a vendor-neutral security certification path.
