DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., Feb. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A new certification to help experienced technology professionals navigate the intricate challenges of modern enterprise networks is available from CompTIA, Inc., the leading global provider of vendor-neutral information technology (IT) training and certification products.

CompTIA CloudNetX, the newest certification in the CompTIA's Xpert Series, validates the advanced skills needed to design, engineer and integrate secure and scalable networking solutions in hybrid environments.

"The demand for highly skilled network architects has surged as organizations increasingly adopt hybrid cloud solutions," said Katie Hoenicke, senior vice president, product development, CompTIA. "For seasoned network professionals CompTIA CloudNetX can help them enhance and validate the advanced skills needed to excel in these complex environments."

CompTIA CloudNetX is a vendor-neutral certification, a critical differentiator for IT professionals who work with hybrid networks and products from multiple vendors. The certification exam assesses hands-on capabilities on a range of topics, including:

• Emerging technologies such as container networking, software-defined cloud interconnect and generative AI for automation and scripting.
• Network security, including threats, vulnerabilities, and mitigations; identity and access management; and wireless security and appliance hardening. Zero Trust Architecture is another area of dedicated focus.
• Analyzing business requirements to design and implement network solutions, ensuring candidates can align technical skills with organizational goals.

CompTIA CloudNetX was created for IT professionals with at least five years of experience as a systems architect, network architect, cloud network architect, infrastructure architect or enterprise architect.

Two new learning resources are available for the new certification. CertMaster Perform CloudNetX is a comprehensive eLearning resource to gain knowledge and practical experience through instructional lessons and live labs. CertMaster Labs CloudNetX offers hands-on practice and skills development through a browser-based lab environment, allowing learners to apply their knowledge in real IT environments.
