SY0-701 - CompTIA Security+: Enterprise Security Capabilities






This course is a vital exploration of many of the day-to-day operational controls that the security professional is often involved with. This is what is referred to as the "due care" aspect of the job or ongoing continual maintenance. In other words, these are core "blue team" responsibilities. Topics presented to the learner include firewalls, intrusion detection system (IDS)/intrusion prevention system (IPS), web filtering, operating system security, implementing secure protocols, DNS filtering, email security, DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), Sender Policy Framework (SPF), gateways, File Integrity Monitoring (FIM), data loss prevention (DLP), network access control (NAC), endpoint detection and response (EDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and user behavior analytics (UBA). This course is part of a series that prepares you for the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam.
