From the course: CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) Cert Prep: 1 General Security Concepts

Security concepts

Cybersecurity is an engaging and fulfilling field with tremendous career growth potential. And a robust cybersecurity posture is crucial for all types of organizations, from hardening systems and infrastructure to guarding against malicious attackers. It takes talent and a commitment to developing your skill set to succeed in the world of cybersecurity. Earning the CompTIA Security+ certification is a great way to demonstrate that commitment to current and future employers. Hi, I'm Mike Chapple, and I'd like to welcome you to our Security+ course on general security concepts. Earning the Security+ certification requires passing an exam covering five domains of cybersecurity knowledge. This course covers the first of those domains: General security concepts. That domain covers 12% of the questions on the Security+ exam, and this course is part of a series of six courses that will prepare you for the entire test. All right. Let's get rolling.
