CompTIA Security+ certification

The CompTIA Security+ certification is often the first cybersecurity credential that many IT professionals obtain. To earn this vendor-neutral, entry-level certification, candidates must demonstrate basic cybersecurity knowledge and perform basic security tasks, including configuring, managing and troubleshooting networks. They must also possess the skills necessary to identify threats, detect intrusions and conduct penetration testing, and be well-versed in risk management and mitigation. CompTIA recommends candidates have the Network+ credential and two years of experience in IT administration with a security focus.

This Security+ certification is ideal for anyone just starting their career as a cybersecurity professional. It is valid for three years, and 50 continuing education (CE) credits are required to renew.

More generally, therefore, we can say that the primary difference between the Security+ sy0-401 vs. the sy0-501 is that sy0-501 includes core security functions, like using security frameworks and tools, configuring resilient networks, and performing risk management and risk mitigation. Also, with sy0-501, the content has been reorganized, and it focuses more on application and less on analytics.
