Aimed at seasoned security professionals, this course surveys the entire information security landscape and the technologies involved.

The course addresses the ten knowledge domains that comprise the Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) for information systems security professionals and prepares delegates for CISSP certification. The course offers a theory based approach to the security process, with opportunities to discuss the immediate application of concepts and techniques described in the CBK to the real world. It can be considered as providing a good introduction to security management, architecture and engineering.

The course comprises ten sessions that map directly to the (CBK), each one is theory based with instructor led discussions; there are no hands on labs. The work completed in the classroom should be complimented by extra reading, references to internet resources will be provided by the instructor.

Who Should Attend

Quote from (ISC)2 expressing who should take the CISSP certification:
“If you plan to build a career in information security …the CISSP® credential should be your next career goal. It’s the credential for professionals who develop policies and procedures in information security.”

Please note the exam is not a part of the course, delegates will be required to book their own exam through (ISC)2 and should reference www.isc2.org for a schedule.

Prerequisites

Delegates should have experience in at least two of the domains in the (CBK), for 5 years or more (4 years if they have achieved relevant certifications, e.g. MCSE) to achieve full certification. Associate status can be achieved without the full 4/5 years experience; full certification will be assigned when the correct amount of experience is obtained.

Delegates must ensure that they have some knowledge of all CBK domains and are encouraged to read one or two of the books on the Reading List at ISC2.org.

Commsupport will provide a CISSP guide book as pre-reading, with some ‘test prep’ questions.
