CompTIA CASP+ Name Change To SecurityX
CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) will be re-branded to SecurityX with the release of the next exam version CAS-005. The name change emphasises the advanced, or “Xpert” level certifications in the CompTIA portfolio.
The name change from CASP+ to SecurityX will not affect the certification status of current CASP+ certification holders or the continuing education (CE) program. Those with an active CASP+ certification will automatically receive the rebranded SecurityX badge and can download a new certificate and transcript in CertMetrics. Unexpired CASP+ exam vouchers will work for the SecurityX exam.
