Course Description:

'' This four-day, instructor-led course provides delegates with the knowledge and skills to begin supporting network security within an organisation.

The CAQC program assures delegates that all test objectives for the CompTIA Security+ certification exam are covered in the course materials. Although the course focuses on Microsoft product- and technology-specific implementation of security concepts, many of these same concepts can be applied to other technologies.
