This course is designed to help prepare you for the CompTIA Security (SY0-701) certification exam and covers all the domains the Security+ (SY0-701) certification exam:

CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701):

  1. General Security Concepts

  2. Threats, Vulnerabilities, and Mitigations

  3. Security Architecture

  4. Security Operations

  5. Security Program Management and Oversight


What You Will Receive In The Course:

  • Video lectures with the essential information needed to pass the Security+ (SY0-701) exam

What Other Students Are Saying About My CompTIA Security+ Course:

  • Solid information, acronym break downs throughout the course (allows for better note taking). Jason is easy to follow, listen to, and understand during your study period (I sit for hours listening and taking notes and replaying the section) (Mark Guillen, 5 stars)


  • Just passed my security+ today! Dion's course was excellent. It was all I needed, and I took his practice tests I also purchased. The only thing I think would help other testers is more sophisticated and harder performance-based questions as I experienced ones today that were pretty tough and required more hands-on experience. Overall, though completely worth the money. (Duran navarro, 5 stars)


  • The course is very informative and good for people that has no knowledge about cybersecurity so far. It teaches us about the harm caused by attacks and how to prevent them. I would suggest everyone to take this course, even if they don't wan the certificate from Comptia.  (Mahmoud Choumar, 5 stars)


  • Jason is a great pedagogue. He is thorough and amiable. The course has very minimal errors and you can tell he is very strict with the format of his lessons. I had very few questions during the lectures and only experience one issue throughout the whole experience. I will definitely buy more courses from him. I also bought the voucher from his website to get the retake for only 100 bucks! Good job Dion Training! Keep up the great job! (Victor Cabrales, 5 stars)


  • Passed the exam in December of 2022 using this course - FIRST TRY!! This course gave the back bone of everything I needed to pass the Sec. + exam. When the time came to study up a day or two before the actual exam, I used all the practice quizzes/tests from the CompTIA Sec. + study book. Seems thoughtless or stupid to not use the book for actual studying, but I found I learn slightly better in a class environment and this course/videos allowed me that. Thank you for this course and I look forward to many more in the future! Honestly, I haven't taken an ACTUAL exam in years - many years. If I can do it, you all can too! Good luck and God speed! (Nathaniel Shumaker, 5 stars)
