CompTIA CASP+ CAS-004: Advanced Security Practitioner 2026

The CASP+ CAS-004 is not a memorization exam — it is a scenario-based

assessment that tests whether you can think and act like a senior security

architect. This course is built to meet that standard.

Every module is engineered around the four exam domains with the depth and

decision-level thinking CompTIA actually tests — not surface definitions,

but real architectural reasoning under constraints.

WHAT THIS COURSE COVERS

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▸ Security Architecture (29%)

Design Zero Trust architectures using NIST 800-207, SASE, ZTNA, and

microsegmentation. Secure multi-cloud, and

CNAPP. Architect resilient network defenses with NGFW, ZTNA, SD-WAN, and

DMZ design. Apply FIDO2, PAM, and ided

environments.

▸ sc 200 microsoft security operations analyst exam prep 2026 (30%)

Execute the full NIST 800-61 incidentdigital

forensics using Volatility 3, FTK Imager, and Windows artifact analysis.

Build threat intelligence programs usT&CK,

and hypothesis-driven threat hunting. Analyze malware with static and

dynamic techniques and respond to ran

compliance obligations intact.

▸ Security Engineering & Cryptography (26%)

Select the right algorithm for every ,

Ed25519, and SHA-3 for current deployments; ML-KEM (FIPS 203) and ML-DSA

(FIPS 204) for the post-quantum era. Design enterprise PKI hierarchies with

offline root CAs, OCSP Stapling, and vSecOps

pipelines with SAST, DAST, SCA, and supply chain controls. Harden

Kubernetes, containers, and IaC deplo

▸ Governance, Risk & Compliance (15%)

Quantify risk using SLE, ALE, and FAIR. Apply NIST CSF 2.0, ISO 27001, and

CIS Controls v8 to real organizationaIPAA,

PCI DSS v4.0, and CMMC requirements with confidence. Communicate risk to

boards using MTTD/MTTR metrics and bu

WHY THIS COURSE IS DIFFERENT

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Every module closes with scenario-basrror the

actual exam format — multi-constraint situations where you must identify the

root cause, eliminate constraint-viol

architecturally correct response. That is the skill the CASP+ tests.

You will also learn the exam traps that trip up well-prepared candidates:

when to pick FIDO2 over TOTP, why OCSseparate

BOLA from BFLA, and why "add more firewalls" is almost never the right

answer to an identity problem.

▸ Security+ holders ready to advance

▸ Security engineers targeting senior or cloud security architect roles

▸ DoD and federal contractors needingce

▸ Experienced practitioners who want vendor-neutral, architect-level mastery
