Anyone who reads the news knows that security and privacy have become increasingly important to organizations. The new CompTIA Core Series addresses this by threading security through other topics, such as Active Directory, securely accessing devices, application security, email filtering, mobile device management, and device hardening. Items added to the security domain include rainbow tables, denial of service, port security, SSL certificates, and active directory account management. Privacy concerns are addressed with questions about the new General Data Protection Regulation and handling personally identifiable information and protected health information.

Knowledge of operational procedures is required to meet that demand, and it is covered on the new exam. Expect questions about documentation, change management, and disaster recovery. Another welcome addition is scripting, a key skill for operational procedures and very useful across a wide variety of IT responsibilities.
