Description

Description

This 5-day course will prepare for the CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) exam, covering the entire CBK (Common Body of Knowledge) as defined by (ISC)2. The CISSP is the most globally recognised certification in the information security market. CISSP validates an information security professional’s deep technical and managerial knowledge and experience to effectively design, engineer, and manage the overall security posture of an organisation

The broad spectrum of topics included in the CISSP Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) ensures its relevance across all disciplines in the field of information security. Successful candidates are competent in the following 8 domains:

  •     Security and Risk Management

  •     Asset Security

  •     Security Architecture and Engineering

  •     Communication and Network Security

  •     Identity and Access Management (IAM)

  •     Security Assessment and Testing

  •     Security Operations

  •     Software Development Security

Objectives

This training course will help candidates review and refresh their information security knowledge and help identify areas they need to study for the CISSP exam.

Several types of activities are used throughout the course to reinforce topics and increase knowledge retention. These activities include open ended questions from the instructor to the students, matching and poll questions, group activities, open/closed questions, and group discussions. The interactive learning technique is based on sound adult learning theories.

This training provides a comprehensive review of information security concepts and industry best practices, covering the 8 domains of CISSP CBK (Common Body of Knowledge).
