Cybersecurity professionals require a well-rounded understanding of the tools, processes, and strategies that can be employed to defend their information systems from constantly evolving threats. CyberSec First Responder® (CFR) is a comprehensive certification designed to validate the knowledge and skills required to protect these critical information systems before, during, and after an incident.
The CFR exam is accredited under the ANSI/ISO/IEC 17024 standard and is approved by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to fulfill Directive 8570/8140 requirements.
The CFR-210 version of the CyberSec First Responder examination retired in September 2019. Certifications will no longer be issued for CyberSec First Responder under the retired CFR-210 scheme. All future candidates and current certificants must take and pass the updated exam, CFR-310, in order to hold a valid CyberSec First Responder certification.
