About the course

Why take CISSP Certification Training?

The Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) from ISC2 is the most widely recognised credential for senior security practitioners. It proves that you can design, implement and manage an enterprise security programme, not just operate individual tools. The exam is built on eight domains that run from governance and risk through architecture, identity, testing, operations and secure software development.

This 40-hour live online course walks through every domain in teaching order, using real-world scenarios so that you learn why a control is chosen, not only what it is. Because the exam is adaptive and favours risk-based, business-aligned answers, a large share of class time goes to practising that way of thinking: reading a question, spotting the real risk, and choosing the best management-level response.

The course follows the current outline in force since 15 April 2024. ISC2 has announced a refreshed outline from 15 April 2027, and the batch content will be aligned to whichever outline applies on your exam date. Experience rules, the Associate of ISC2 route and the endorsement process are explained early so that you can plan your path to full certification.

Who should attend

● Security analysts, engineers and administrators moving into architecture or management
● IT auditors, risk and compliance professionals who work closely with security teams
● Network, systems and cloud engineers with security duties
● Security consultants and pre-sales engineers advising enterprise customers
● Aspiring CISOs, security managers and IT directors

Prerequisites

● For full CISSP certification ISC2 requires five years of cumulative, paid work experience in two or more of the eight domains; a relevant degree or an approved credential can replace one year
● Candidates without the experience can still pass the exam and become an Associate of ISC2, then earn the experience within six years
● Working knowledge of networking, operating systems and basic security concepts is strongly recommended
