Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+) certification cybersecurity professionals

The Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+) certification is designed for cybersecurity professionals who use an analytics-based approach to identify and combat malware and advanced persistent threats (APTs). As hackers continue to evade traditional signature-based solutions such as firewalls, the IT security industry is moving toward an analytics-based approach. The CompTIA CySA+ certification validates the candidate’s ability to:
Implement a vulnerability management process
Perform data analysis and interpret the results to identify vulnerabilities, threats and risks to an organization
Configure and use threat-detection tools
Secure and protect applications and systems within an organization

Required exam: Earning the CompTIA CySA+ certification requires passing one exam — CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-001).
Prerequisites: None.
Recommended experience: While not required in order to take the CompTIA CySA+, CompTIA recommends that candidates either have a CompTIA Network+ or Security+ certification, or at least three years of hands-on experience in information security.

CompTIA Cybersecurity certifications make up the final step of the CompTIA technical certification path. These certifications are for advanced and expert-level professionals.

CompTIA offers three cybersecurity certifications:
CompTIA Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+)
CompTIA PenTest+
CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+)

CompTIA CySA+ and CompTIA CASP+ are both DoD 8570.01-M-approved certifications.
