Cybersecurity is necessary for any organization to thrive and be protected from malicious attacks. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics states that the employment of information security analysts is projected to grow 33% by 2033, with roughly 17,300 openings each year, on average. In this growing field, you can show you are qualified to lead security efforts by obtaining an industry-recognized information security certification.
Holding a certification from ISACA or (ISC)2 demonstrates your ability to identify, assess, and mitigate evolving security threats. This online information security course will prepare you for three globally recognized certifications: ISACA's Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) and Certified Information Security Manager (CISM), and (ISC)2's Certified Information Security Professional (CISSP).
During your training, you will learn CISA certification key areas such as governance and IT management, information systems acquisition, development, and implementation. The course curriculum dives into operation, maintenance, and support related to information systems as well as protection and information assets. You will also learn about CISM certification topics like information security governance, risk management, security program development, incident management, security and risk management, and more.
Essential CISSP certification-related details are thoroughly reviewed during the course, including asset security and risk management, security architecture and engineering, communication and network security, identity and access management, security assessment and testing, security operations, and software development security are also covered.
With your enrollment you will receive exam vouchers that cover the cost to sit for the (CISA) and (CISM) certifying exams upon eligibility. Proctor fees may apply, which are not included. A voucher for the (CISSP) exam is not included.
