CompTIA Security+: Threat Actors & Vectors

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. One of the primary goals for an emerging security practitioner is to have a firm grasp of the present threatscape. The learner will build this vital knowledge base in this course. In this course, we will explore threat actor types, attributes, and motivations. Next, we will dive into the use of human vectors and social engineering as well as common attack surfaces. Then we will explore supply chain, application, and O/S and web-based vulnerabilities. Finally, we will cover hardware and virtualization vulnerabilities, cloud vulnerabilities, and mobile device vulnerabilities. This course is part of a series that prepares you for the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam.
