The New CompTIA Linux+

From emerging tech and the cloud to cybersecurity and DevOps, Linux is everywhere and used to manage everything from cars and smartphones to servers and supercomputers. This week, CompTIA launched the latest version of CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-004), which was revised in many ways beyond the obvious change from two exams to one. The new CompTIA Linux+ validates the skills you need to use Linux in today’s tech environment in jobs such as systems administrator, network administrator, web administrator, Linux software developers and more.

We know you have questions about the new exam, so we’ve asked Zach Hill from I.T. Career Questions to help you understand what’s on the new exam and how it will help you in your IT career.
