CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) practice exam

A bank of original Security+ practice questions across all five SY0-701 domains: multiple choice, select-all, true/false, fill-in and ordering.

5,016 questions in the bank · exam 90 questions · 90-minute time limit · pass mark 75%

This practice exam draws on a large bank of original questions written by iBee tutors and mapped to the official CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 exam objectives. The full exam gives you 90 random questions in 90 minutes, like the real test. Use quick practice for 20 untimed questions, or practise by topic to drill one domain at a time.

The bank covers all five domains:

  • General Security Concepts
  • Threats, Vulnerabilities and Mitigations
  • Security Architecture
  • Security Operations
  • Security Program Management and Oversight

Every question has an explanation, and your results show a score for each domain so you know what to review.

These are practice questions, not real exam questions. CompTIA has announced a future Security+ version (SY0-801). Check CompTIA's site for the current exam before you book. See our Security+ study plan.
