This course teaches the knowledge and skills necessary to pass one of the most trusted professional cybersecurity certifications in the IT industry.

Security administrators are the obvious audience for this cybersecurity fundamentals course – especially if they're looking for certifications that can advance their career. Helpdesk managers and analysts should take this course too, not only can it move your career into cybersecurity, but you can learn basic techniques to keep systems and network locked down.

Is this training in cybersecurity administration associated with any certifications?

Yes, this is a CompTIA preparation course designed to help you get ready for the CompTIA Security+ exam SY0-601.

What certification should you consider after taking this course in network and device security management?

The Security+ from CompTIA will be within reach after this course, and many other certifications will be easier.
