Thinking of taking CompTIA’s Security+ exam (SY0-701)? As with nearly all CompTIA exams, the SY0-701 exam is a vendor-neutral, baseline competency exam. By limiting its content to best practices, standards-based solutions, and general security concepts, the SY0-701 exam can be used to assess a candidate's breadth of security knowledge without requiring too much deep subject matter knowledge or experience. Because the exam is vendor-neutral, a candidate can focus on security concepts and abstract implementation details without worrying about specific vendor solutions.
