Cybersecurity threats continue to increase in number and severity. New vulnerabilities are discovered on a near-daily basis, keeping both bad actors and information security professionals busy. The need for a secure network is growing daily, and the gap between the need for cybersecurity professionals and qualified IT personnel to handle those threats is one of the largest of any IT specialty. Gain the skills and knowledge to reduce that gap and establish yourself as a serious cybersecurity professional with CompTIA Security+ certification training from ONLC, a CompTIA Authorized Partner.
Security+ certification confirms baseline skills needed to perform core security functions and pursue an IT security career. Security+ incorporates best practices in hands-on troubleshooting to ensure security professionals have practical security problem-solving skills plus understand the latest trends and techniques in risk management, risk mitigation, threat management and intrusion detection. Cybersecurity professionals with Security+ certification know how to address security incidents, not just identify them.
According to CompTIA's website, cybersecurity specialist jobs are expected to grow at 25% and provide an average salary of over $98,000 (USD). Security+ is the most sought after certification for DoD 8570 / 8140 compliance and one of the most valuable fundamental IT certifications to possess.
Security+ training at ONLC follows a curriculum built toward certification and includes exam prep and exam voucher! Through real-world examples, hands-on labs and exercises led and supported by online professional instructors you'll be prepared to handle cybersecurity threats both offensively and defensively. Live, instructor-led Security+ classes are offered frequently to keep up with the demand for this very popular cybersecurity certification.
Security+ provides a solid foundation upon which one can move on to intermediate-level cybersecurity jobs. Prep for Security+ certification with high-impact training from ONLC!

Next Step after Security+
Once you've earned Security+ Certification, further your skill level in the field of IT Security 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 certification path.
