CompTIA CySA+ applies behavioral analytics to networks to improve the overall state of security through identifying and combating malware and advanced persistent threats (APTs), resulting in an enhanced threat visibility across a broad attack surface. It will validate an IT professional’s ability to proactively defend and continuously improve the security of an organization. CySA+ will verify the successful candidate has the knowledge and skills required to:  \n• Leverage intelligence and threat detection techniques  \n• Analyze and interpret data  \n• Identify and address vulnerabilities  \n• Suggest preventative measures  \n• Effectively respond to and recover from incidents  \nExam \\#  \nCS0-002  \nRelease Date  \nApril 2020  \nLanguages  \nEnglish and Japanese  \nCE Required?  \nYes  \nAccreditation  \nAccredited by ANSI to show compliance with the ISO 17024 Standard. It is also approved by the DoD for Directive 8140/8570.01-M.  \nHow does CySA+ Compare to Alternatives?  \n\n|  | \u003Cbr>| | | |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Certification | CySA+ | EC-Council Certified Security Analyst (ECSA) | GIAC Continuous Monitoring Certification (GMON) | ISACA Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) |\n| Performance-based Questions | Yes | No | No | No |\n| Exam Length | 1 exam, 165 minutes | 1 exam, 4 hours | 1 exam, 3 hours | 1 exam, 4 hours |\n| Experience Level | Intermediate | Intermediate | Intermediate | Advanced |\n| Exam Focus | Security analytics, intrusion detection and response | Pen testing\u003Cbr>Methodology | Defensible security and continuous security monitoring | Auditing and\u003Cbr>vulnerability\u003Cbr>assessment |\n| Prerequisites | Recommended Network+, Security+ or equivalent knowledge plus a minimum of 4 years of hands-on experience in a technical cybersecurity job role | Attend approved training or 2 years of working experience in a related InfoSec domain | Must have a basic understanding of network protocols and devices and experience with Linux | 5 years of professional information systems auditing, control or security work experience |\n\nCompTIA Certification Pathway  \nCompTIA certifications align with the skillsets needed to support and manage cybersecurity.
