About the Flashcards

Flashcards for the CompTIA SecurityX exam help you master core cybersecurity and IT terms used on the test. This deck emphasizes identity and access concepts (ABAC, ACL, IAM, MFA, SSO), cryptography and PKI fundamentals (AEAD, RSA, ECC, PQC, CA, OCSP), and common network protocols (DNS, DNSSEC, HTTP/S, DHCP).

Use the cards to review threat types, detection and response tools, cloud and DevSecOps practices, and compliance frameworks. Cards cover attacks and malware (APT, RAT, DDoS, XSS, CSRF, RCE), monitoring and protection platforms (SIEM, EDR, XDR, WAF, NIDS/NIPS, HIDS/HIPS, SOC), cloud controls (CI/CD, IaC, CSPM, SBoM), and governance standards (GDPR, PCI DSS, NIST CSF). Focused practice on terminology, concepts, and key ideas speeds recall for exam day.

Topics covered in this flashcard deck:

  • Access control and authentication
  • Cryptography and PKI
  • Network protocols and services
  • Threats and detection
  • Cloud and DevSecOps
  • Compliance and standards
