Security + Exam Guide

The Security+ Exam Guide provides exam candidates with the concepts, objectives, and test-taking skills needed to pass on their first attempt. Instead of covering every computer security topic, this book isolates those topics most likely to be addressed on the exam. In addition, the companion CD-ROM contains original practice exams created exclusively for the book. Each interactive, timed test features a review to identify areas that need improvement. Written by an experienced network administrator and CompTIA certified instructor, the book draws upon subject expertise and teaching experience to provide everything test takers need to know for successful test-taking.Acknowledgments Author Biography Chapter 1 Introduction The CompTIA Security+ Certification Exam SY0 - 101 Registering for the Exam Test Site Requirements The Exam Structure Preparing Yourself For The Exam Useful Tools, Tips, and Study Techniques Book Structure and Sample Review Questions Chapter Summary References Chapter 2 General Security Concepts Basic Terminology Access Control Systems Fundamentals Authentication Authorization Access Control Techniques Nonessential Services and Protocols Attack Methods Security Monitoring Auditing Test Tips Chapter Summary Review Questions References Chapter 3 Communications Security Remote Access E-mail Security Web Security Directory Security File Transfer Wireless Security Test Tips Chapter Summary Review Questions References Chapter 4 Infrastructure Security IEEE 802 Specifications Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Model and Layers Network Topology Network Cabling Removable Media Protocols and Services Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) Network Countermeasures Devices Security Baselines Test Tips Chapter Summary Review Questions References Chapter 5 Basics of Cryptography Concepts of Using Cryptography Algorithms Standards and Protocols Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) Key Management/Certificate Lifecycle Test Tips Chapter Summary Review Questions References Chapter 6 Operational/Organizational Security Physical Security Disaster Recovery Business Continuity Policies and Procedures Privilege Management Forensics Risk/Threat Identification Education Documentation Test Tips Chapter Summary Review Questions References Chapter 7 Applications and Systems Development Applications Databases Knowledge-based Systems System Development Test Tips Chapter Summary Review Questions References Chapter 8 Laws, Crimes, Ethics, and Investigation Laws Computer Crime Ethics Investigation Test Tips Chapter Summary Review Questions References Chapter 9 Viruses, Worms, and Protection Introduction Malicious Code Specific Computer Viruses Antivirus Solutions Operating System Security Test Tips Chapter Summary Review Questions References The Security+ Exam Guide TestTaker's Cumulative Practice Exam Appendix About the CD-ROM Glossary Index 1584502517 Details   Quantity 500 item(s) available Weight 2.00 lbs Price: $34.95 Options   Quantity 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50  Add to cart
