By the way, it's true that "LPI" stands for "Linux Professional Institute", but this certification is actually platform-neutral and is not specific to Linux. Everything you learn here will apply just as much to Windows, macOS, Android, and IPhones as to Linux. While the LPI's historical origins have been Linux-based, they're now leveraging their considerable experience with highly successful certification programs in new areas.
In case you're wondering, the LPI Security Essentials certification isn't in the exact same market as the Comptia Security+ cert. That one is focused on IT professionals looking to advance their careers in the security sector. The LPI Security Essentials is primarily aimed at individual users who want to secure their own devices and online interactions. But that doesn't mean there isn't some overlap between the two certs. In fact, learning through the LPI Security Essentials objectives will be an excellent first step towards taking on the Comptia Security+ challenge. And it's also a great way to see if you've got the interest and determination to push yourself that far.
So protect yourself AND take the first formal steps towards a new career. Why not?
Who this course is for:
- Individual consumers looking to protect themselves from the risks of digital connectivity
- Individuals looking to write and pass the LPI Security Essentials certification exam
- Individuals considering embarking on a career in digital security
