CompTIA Security+ V8
SY0-801
CompTIA Security+ V8 (SY0-801) is the next version of the baseline security certification. It keeps the five familiar domains, moves more weight to security operations and threats, and adds AI: the risks of using it (prompt injection, poisoning, data loss) and how automation and AI support security operations.
Who it’s for: Security administrators, analysts and anyone moving into a security role, especially if you will sit the exam from 2027.
