The CompTIA Security+ is an industry-standard, well recognized certification that covers the skills needed to succeed in a cybersecurity career. In this course, we'll go over the third domain of topics covered in the exam: Security Architecture. We'll start by taking a look at what makes up an organization's IT systems, the various architectures that are available, and then infrastructure that they consist of. We'll look at cloud-based technologies as well as on-premise systems, virtualization and embedded systems, plus what sort of considerations should go into the selection and securing processes. In addition, you'll learn about various data types and how they can be classified and some of the options for properly securing and protecting an organization's data. Since no systems can have 100% uptime, we'll wrap up this course by discussing options for deploying and configuring a resilient architecture to ensure business operations can continue in the event of systems failures or disasters.
