[Verse 1]
When you're starting on your STIG journey path
CompTIA Security Plus gives you the math
Foundation knowledge that you need to know
Security controls and terms that help you grow
From confidentiality to integrity
Authentication becomes your specialty
This certification opens up the door
To understanding what STIGs are for
[Chorus]
Two certs to guide you on your way
CompTIA and CAP will light the day
Security Plus for the foundation strong
CAP for authorization all along
Remember these names when planning your career
These certifications will make your path clear
[Verse 2]
CAP stands for Certified Authorization Pro
Deep into RMF frameworks you will go
Risk Management Framework is the key
To understanding STIG's destiny
Assessment and authorization process
Every step reduces security stress
When systems need that ATO seal
CAP knowledge makes the process real
[Chorus]
Two certs to guide you on your way
CompTIA and CAP will light the day
Security Plus for the foundation strong
CAP for authorization all along
Remember these names when planning your career
These certifications will make your path clear
[Bridge]
While CISSP and CISM bring management might
And CCSP keeps your cloud security tight
GSEC and vendor certs have their place too
But start with these two to see you through
The fundamentals first then build your stack
With specialized knowledge you won't look back
[Verse 3]
Security Plus teaches you the ground rules
Risk assessment and mitigation tools
Network security and access control
Cryptography to protect your soul
Then CAP takes you to the next level high
Authorization processes reaching for the sky
Together they create a powerful pair
For STIG implementation everywhere
[Chorus]
Two certs to guide you on your way
CompTIA and CAP will light the day
Security Plus for the foundation strong
CAP for authorization all along
Remember these names when planning your career
These certifications will make your path clear
[Outro]
Start with Security Plus today
Then CAP will show authorization's way
Your STIG career begins right here
With these two certs your future's clear
