jobs that require a+ certification

After obtaining your certification, you will need to make sure that you keep it current. You might also want to go for more certifications. Most of them are building blocks along a certification path. One is usually a prerequisite to another more advanced certification. The best way to keep current or get new certifications is with training.

In information technology (IT), having a CompTIA Security+ certification is definitely an advantage. You earn your certification by demonstrating mastery of the skills and knowledge that, as CompTIA puts it, “covers network security, compliance and operation security, threats and vulnerabilities as well as application, data and host security. Also included are access control, identity management, and cryptography.”
At 90 minutes for 90 test items (multiple choice and performance-based questions), the $311 exam is not to be taken lightly. The performance-based questions (PBQs), for example, use realistic simulations of various software and programming environments. You have to actually perform tasks. The CompTIA website provides as a sample task the quick formatting of a drive in a Windows 8.1 environment.
