About this listen
Step into the world of CompTIA Security+ (Security+) with this narrated guide designed for early-career technologists and career-changers. This episode explains what Security+ actually covers, who it is really for, and why so many entry-level security and IT roles call it out by name. You will hear how the exam objectives translate into real skills around threats, defenses, secure design, and day-to-day operations, all in clear, plain English. The narration is based on my Monday “Certified” feature from Bare Metal Cyber Magazine, adapted for audio so you can follow along without needing the article in front of you.
We also explore where Security+ fits in a broader certification and career path, from help desk and junior admin roles through security analyst and SOC positions. You will learn how the exam rewards applied understanding over flashcard memorization, what common misconceptions trip up candidates, and how to think about your next steps once you pass. If you are ready to go deeper and follow a structured, step-by-step study plan, you can continue with the full audio course for Security+ inside the Bare Metal Cyber Audio Academy.
