About
"You live and work on the forefront of information security. Every day malicious hackers grow smarter. You always have to stay one step ahead to keep your company safe.
Prove you have what it takes with the CISSP certification!
This cybersecurity certification is an elite way to demonstrate your knowledge, advance your career and become a member of a community of cybersecurity leaders. It shows you have all it takes to design, engineer, implement and run an information security program.
The CISSP is an objective measure of excellence. It’s the most globally recognized standard of achievement in the industry. And this cybersecurity certification was the first information security credential to meet the strict conditions of ISO/IEC Standard 17024.
Are you up for the challenge?"

Requirements to earn this certificate
To qualify for this cybersecurity certification, you must have:
- At least five years of cumulative, paid, full-time work experience
- In two or more of the eight domains of the (ISC)2 CISSP Common Body of Knowledge (CBK)
Don’t have enough work experience yet? There are two ways you can overcome this obstacle.
You can satisfy one year of required experience with:
- A four-year college degree (or a regional equivalent)
- Or, an approved credential from the CISSP Prerequisite pathway
Your second option is to take and pass the CISSP exam to earn an Associate of (ISC)2 designation. Then, you’ll have up to six years to earn your required work experience for the CISSP.

Value and benefit of this certificate
The CISSP certification is the premier certification for computer security. I've taught CISSP to thousands of Information Security Officers, Security Officers, Information Assurance Managers, Auditors and Directors. If you have a long term vision with information assurance then the CISSP certification is for you. I would also note the salary expectations and the shortage of qualified cyber security individuals as reported by the DoD. This certification holds immense value for the right individual. Do you think you have what it takes to master 8 complex domains of information?
