CASP+ is ideal for technical professionals who want to remain immersed in technology instead of strictly managing. It is the only hands-on, performance-based certification for practitioners and not managers at the advanced skill level of cybersecurity. While cybersecurity managers identify what cybersecurity policies and frameworks could be implemented, CASP+ certified professionals figure out how to implement solutions within those policies and frameworks.

Before you go for CompTIA CASP+ certification, CompTIA recommends that you have a minimum of ten years of experience in IT administration, including at least five years of hands-on technical security experience.
