About the CompTIA SecAI+ Exam
CompTIA SecurityAI+ is CompTIA's first certification purpose-built for the era of AI-integrated security operations. It validates that candidates can secure AI systems, evaluate AI-generated outputs for reliability, and apply AI tooling responsibly within a security workflow — skills that are rapidly becoming non-negotiable in modern SOC and GRC roles. As organisations deploy AI for threat detection, log analysis, and automated response, they also introduce new attack surfaces: model poisoning, adversarial inputs, data leakage through LLM prompts, and over-reliance on automated decisions. SecurityAI+ addresses both sides — using AI effectively and defending against AI-enabled threats. The certification is vendor-neutral and sits at an intermediate level, making it a natural companion to Security+. It is particularly relevant for analysts, engineers, and architects who work with AI-assisted SIEM platforms, automated vulnerability tools, or generative AI integrations in their security stack.
Exam Domains Covered
Exam Format & Details
The SecurityAI+ exam contains up to 90 questions, including multiple-choice and performance-based questions (PBQs), with a 165-minute time limit. The passing score is 750 on a 100–900 scale. Domain breakdown: - AI Concepts and Security Implications (~25%) - Securing AI Systems and Applications (~25%) - AI-Augmented Security Operations (~25%) - Governance, Risk, and Compliance for AI (~25%) Performance-based questions simulate tasks such as evaluating AI model outputs for anomalies, identifying prompt injection risks, and selecting appropriate controls for an AI pipeline. Expect scenario questions that require you to weigh AI recommendations against human judgment.
Why Practice Questions Matter
SecurityAI+ combines traditional security concepts with AI-specific threat models, so the exam tests how well you can apply security principles to novel contexts — not just recall definitions. Practice questions help you: - Distinguish between AI-specific attacks (model poisoning, adversarial examples, data extraction) and conventional threats - Apply the principle of least privilege and data minimisation to AI training pipelines - Evaluate when to trust, audit, or override an AI-generated security recommendation - Map AI governance frameworks to real-world controls Many questions present a scenario — an AI tool flagging an anomaly, a model behaving unexpectedly, or a vendor making a capability claim — and ask you to identify the correct analyst response. Repeated exposure to these patterns through practice is the fastest way to build exam-day confidence.

Sample Practice Questions
The following questions are a preview of the type of syllabus-aligned questions you will practise in CertCrush. They reflect the format and reasoning style of the CompTIA SecAI+ exam — not actual exam content.
Q1.Which of the following describes the concept of model drift in a production AI system?
- A.The physical relocation of model infrastructure from one data center to another
- B.A gradual degradation in model performance over time caused by changes in the underlying data distribution or real-world conditions
- C.An attacker slowly modifying model weights over an extended period
- D.The process of migrating a model from development to production
Domain: 1.0 Basic AI Concepts
Q2.A data scientist discovers that a pre-trained model downloaded from an open-source repository contains a hidden neuron that activates only when a specific pixel pattern is present in the input image, causing misclassification. Which of the following BEST describes this threat?
- A.Feature drift
- B.Neural backdoor (trojan)
- C.Gradient explosion
- D.Vanishing gradient
Domain: 1.0 Basic AI Concepts
Q3.A security team is deploying an AI model that analyzes network packets to detect intrusions. During testing, the model performs well on training data but performs poorly on new, unseen network traffic. Which of the following BEST describes this problem?
- A.Underfitting
- B.Data poisoning
- C.Overfitting
- D.Model extraction
Domain: 1.0 Basic AI Concepts
Q4.A company is using a generative AI model to produce marketing content. An employee submits a prompt that causes the model to output confidential customer records that were included in the training data. Which of the following BEST describes this risk?
- A.Prompt injection
- B.Training data memorization and leakage
- C.Model hallucination
- D.Adversarial evasion
Domain: 1.0 Basic AI Concepts
Q5.Which of the following is a PRIMARY concern when using transfer learning with a pre-trained model downloaded from a public model repository?
- A.The model will always require more training data than training from scratch
- B.The pre-trained model may contain backdoors or poisoned weights introduced by a malicious contributor
- C.Transfer learning prevents the model from being fine-tuned on new data
- D.Public models cannot be deployed in cloud environments due to licensing restrictions
Domain: 1.0 Basic AI Concepts
