Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)

The CISSP certification preparatory course teaches students how to design, build and maintain a secure business IT architecture using globally approved security standards. Students learn about the eight domains of knowledge, as determined by (ISC)2, that form a critical part of the CISSP® exam. The course covers each knowledge domain in depth and explains how they relate to each other and other critical areas of information security. (ISC)² was founded in 1989 as the International Information System Security Certification Consortium, Inc., an international, nonprofit membership association for information security leaders. That same year, (ISC)² published the first Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) to document best practices, skills, and techniques for security professionals. Today the CISSP certification is internationally recognized and respected as the premier cybersecurity professional credential. CISSP certification is a unique IT certification because it requires a demonstrated fundamental understanding of the eight domains of cybersecurity and documented proof of experience in the information security and architecture field. This training course helps students acquire a broad range of cybersecurity skills, from developing security policies to managing risk to understanding technical security controls.
