Class Overview
ISC2’s Certified Information Systems Security Professional
, or CISSP, training comprehensively prepares the security professional to sit the CISSP certification exam.
CISSP was the first credential in the field of information security to meet the stringent requirements of ANSI/ ISO/IEC Standard 17024:2003. It was developed and launched by the “International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium” (or ISC2) in 1994 and has gained momentum and recognition since that time.
CISSP certification 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.
The CISSP training class teaches students how to design, build, and manage a secure business IT architecture using globally approved security standards. Students learn about the eight domains of knowledge, as determined by ISC2, 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.
