Secure the expanding attack surfaces of embedded systems, IoT devices, mobile platforms, and web applications. Through the industry-proven lens of the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam, you'll learn how to secure smartphones, IoT devices, and embedded systems, apply mobile device management (MDM), implement secure application-layer protocols, and identify and mitigate OWASP web application vulnerabilities including SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and CSRF. Online labs reinforce mobile security and application hardening tasks.

Not planning to take the exam? Phones, connected devices, and web applications are everywhere, so these skills apply on the job whether or not you pursue the certification. You'll be able to protect mobile and specialized systems and defend web applications against common attack patterns. Expert instruction explains each topic in practical terms, from hardware security and segmentation to application-layer protocols. Whether you support users, manage devices, or build applications, you'll learn how to reduce risk across the systems your organization relies on.
