CISSP Security Professional Online Training Course


This online course helps a learner prepare to take and pass the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) exam. This online course, like the exam, covers ten domains of information system security knowledge including access control systems and methodology, network and telecommunications security, security management and practices, applications and systems development security, cryptography, security and architecture models, operations security, business continuity and disaster recovery planning, law, investigation, and ethics, as well as physical security.
Why should you become Certified?
People are the key to a secure organization.
Technological solutions alone cannot protect an organization's critical information assets. Employers demanding qualified information security staff give their organizations a leading edge by providing the highest standard of security for their customers', employees', stakeholders' and organizational information assets. (ISC)˛, the only not-for-profit body charged with maintaining, administering and certifying information security professionals via the compendium of industry best practices, the (ISC)˛ CBK®, is the premier resource for information security professionals worldwide.

Benefits of the CISSP for Professionals

  •  Demonstrates a working knowledge of information security  
  •  Confirms commitment to profession 
  •  Offers a career differentiator, with enhanced credibility and marketability 
  •  Affords you exclusive benefits as an (ISC)˛ member, including valuable resources such as peer networking and idea exchange 
  •  Indicates that certified information security professionals earn a worldwide average of 25% more than their non-certified counterparts, according to the Global Information Security Workforce Study 
  •  Fulfills government and organization requirements for information security certification mandates

 
What are the Prerequisites for CISSP?

Candidates for the CISSP must meet several requirements:

  • Possess a minimum of five years of direct full-time security work experience in two or more of the ten (ISC)˛ information security domains (CBK). One year may be waived for having either a four-year college degree, a Master's degree in Information Security, or for possessing one of a number of other certifications from other organizations. A candidate not possessing the necessary five years of experience may earn the Associate of (ISC)˛ designation by passing the required CISSP examination. The Associate of (ISC)˛ for CISSP designation is valid for a maximum of six years from the date (ISC)˛ notifies the candidate of having passed the exam. During those six years a candidate will need to obtain the required experience and submit the required endorsement form for certification as a CISSP. Upon completion of the professional experience requirements the certification will be converted to CISSP status.
  • Attest to the truth of their assertions regarding professional experience and accept the CISSP Code of Ethics.
  • Answer four questions regarding criminal history and related background.
  • Have their qualifications endorsed by another CISSP in good standing. The endorser attests that the candidate's assertions regarding professional experience are true to the best of their knowledge, and that the candidate is in good standing within the information security industry.

If you’re working on building your experience right now, you may earn the Associate of (ISC)˛ designation by passing the required CISSP examination.
