    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    Official CompTIA Security+
    Boot Camp FAQ

    Real questions from real professionals who passed.
    Here's how we answer them.

    Yes — CompTIA Security+ remains the most widely held entry-level cybersecurity certification, required for most DoD contractor positions, recognized across 20+ DCWF work roles under DoD 8140, and held by over 750,000 IT professionals worldwide. Security+ holders earn 20–30% more than non-certified peers in equivalent roles, and DoD-cleared positions pay a $15,000–$30,000 premium. With cybersecurity job openings outpacing qualified candidates by roughly 3.5 million globally, Security+ continues to deliver one of the highest ROIs of any IT certification.

    Security+ is considered moderately difficult — the SY0-701 exam has a 50% pass rate industry-wide for self-study candidates, with most failures driven by the performance-based questions (PBQs), not the multiple choice. The exam consists of up to 90 questions, a 750/900 passing score, a 90-minute time limit, and a mix of multiple-choice and hands-on simulation tasks. With instructor-led training and PBQ-focused labs, first-time pass rates rise above 95%.

    Yes. CompTIA Security+ is an approved foundational qualification under DoD Manual 8140.03 — the manual that replaced the retired DoD 8570 framework in February 2023. Security+ qualifies for 20+ DCWF work roles, including System Administrator (451), Cyber Defense Analyst (511), Cyber Defense Infrastructure Support Specialist (521), Vulnerability Assessment Analyst (541), and Information Systems Security Manager (722). Job postings still referencing legacy “IAT Level II” requirements are also satisfied by Security+.

    Security+ qualifies you for entry- to mid-level cybersecurity and IT roles including SOC Analyst, Systems Administrator, Network Administrator, IT Security Specialist, Cybersecurity Analyst, Junior Penetration Tester, IT Auditor, and Security Consultant. In the government and defense sector, Security+ is a baseline requirement for DoD 8140-coded cyber positions at major contractors like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Booz Allen Hamilton, Raytheon, and SAIC. Average starting salary ranges from $65,000 to $85,000, with cleared DoD roles starting at $85,000+.

    Most candidates need 4–12 weeks of self-study to pass Security+, depending on prior IT experience. Candidates with 2+ years of IT or networking experience typically prepare in 4–6 weeks, while career changers without IT background need 10–12 weeks. Instructor-led boot camps compress preparation into 4–5 days of intensive training, with most students passing the exam within the same week they complete the course.

    Take Security+ first. Security+ is the foundational, vendor-neutral cybersecurity certification that establishes core security knowledge, while CySA+ (Cybersecurity Analyst+) is the intermediate certification focused on threat detection, SOC operations, and incident response. CompTIA recommends Security+ as a prerequisite for CySA+, and most employers expect candidates to hold Security+ before pursuing CySA+. Holding Security+ also automatically renews when you earn CySA+, making them a logical pairing.

    The Security+ SY0-701 exam voucher costs $425 from CompTIA as of 2026. Total certification cost typically ranges from $500 to $4,000 depending on study method: self-study with the CompTIA Study Guide ($50) plus the voucher ($425) is the cheapest path. Instructor-led boot camps range from $2,500 to $4,000 and typically include the voucher, study materials, practice exams, and a pass guarantee with free retake — eliminating the cost risk of failing the first attempt.

    Yes — Security+ is valid for three years from the date you pass the exam. To renew, earn 50 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) within the three-year window through approved activities like attending conferences, completing approved courses, publishing security content, or earning higher-level certifications. CompTIA CySA+, CASP+, SecurityX, and PenTest+ automatically renew Security+ when earned. Alternatively, retake the current Security+ exam at the end of the three-year period.

    Security+ is an entry-level certification for IT professionals beginning their cybersecurity career, while CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) is a senior-level certification requiring 5+ years of professional security experience. Security+ has no prerequisites and validates foundational skills, while CISSP requires verified work experience, ISC2 endorsement, and covers strategic security management across 8 domains. Typical career path: Security+ → CySA+ or PenTest+ → CISSP, spanning 5–8 years of professional development.

    Yes — Training Camp’s Security+ Boot Camp is available in both live online and in-person formats, with identical curriculum, instructors, and pass guarantees. The 4-day live online format uses an interactive virtual classroom with breakout rooms, real-time PBQ labs, and direct instructor access. In-person delivery is available at 13 North American locations. Both formats include official CompTIA courseware, the $425 exam voucher, free retake, and 180 days of post-class instructor support.

    The Security+ SY0-701 exam covers five domains: General Security Concepts (12%), Threats/Vulnerabilities/Mitigations (22%), Security Architecture (18%), Security Operations (28%), and Security Program Management & Oversight (20%). Topics include zero trust architecture, cloud security, cryptography, identity and access management, network security, incident response, risk management, and security governance. The exam was last updated in November 2023.

    Security+ is slightly harder than Network+ due to performance-based questions (PBQs) that test hands-on security skills, plus deeper coverage of cryptography, risk management, and incident response. Network+ focuses on networking fundamentals (routing, switching, protocols), while Security+ assumes Network+ level knowledge and adds the cybersecurity layer on top. CompTIA recommends earning Network+ before Security+, though it’s not a formal prerequisite — most candidates with networking experience can skip directly to Security+.
