CompTIA SecurityX (CAS-005) Boot Camp CompTIA SecurityX (CAS-005) Certification Training Boot Camp

For the right professional, yes. CompTIA SecurityX (CAS-005) is recognized across the industry and routinely appears in job requirements and hiring filters. It signals a verified, standardized baseline of knowledge that hiring managers use to screen candidates, and it typically supports higher compensation and broader career options. Like any certification, the return is strongest when it matches your role and career direction.

With this boot camp you prepare in 5 days of focused, instructor-led training rather than the months self-study usually takes. The accelerated format works because it follows the exam objectives in a structured sequence, includes hands-on labs, and bundles an exam voucher so you can test while the material is fresh.

CompTIA recommends at least ten years of general IT experience, including five years of hands-on security, before attempting SecurityX. It is an expert-level certification intended for senior practitioners.

Our Exam Pass Guarantee covers your second attempt at no charge, and you can re-sit the boot camp free for up to one year from your enrollment date. The guarantee exists so a single unsuccessful attempt never becomes a financial barrier to getting certified.

SecurityX is among the certifications recognized under the DoD 8140 framework for relevant cybersecurity work roles. For government employees, military personnel, and defense contractors who need to satisfy these requirements, it can be a direct path to compliance. Confirm the current work-role mapping against the official DoD 8140 qualification matrix for your specific role.

Yes. Every enrollment includes a voucher covering the full cost of the SecurityX certification exam, along with official courseware, practice materials, and hands-on labs. There are no hidden add-ons.

Common roles include security architect, senior security engineer, security lead, soc lead, security consultant, principal security analyst, among others. The certification is valuable across private sector, government, and contractor environments, and it often pairs well with more advanced or specialized credentials as you progress.

ExamNav’s SecurityX boot camp is $2,755 for five days of live, instructor-led training. That price includes official courseware, the exam voucher, hands-on labs, unlimited practice exams, a pre-study learning path, and instructor support after class. It also carries our Exam Pass Guarantee: if you don’t pass on the first attempt, your second exam is on us.

Typical students are Security Architects, Senior Security Engineers, Security Leads, and SOC Leads, along with people moving into those roles. If you need SecurityX to qualify for a job, meet a contract or compliance requirement, or step up to a more senior role, this course is built for you.

Yes. Every SecurityX class on our schedule is taught live online by an instructor, starting at 9:00am Eastern each day for five days. You attend in real time, ask questions, and work through the labs as you go. It is not a recorded course.
