The Certified Chief Information Security Officer, C|CISO program is the first of its kind certification that recognizes an individual’s accumulated skills in developing and executing an information security management strategy aligned with organizational goals. C|CISO equips information security leaders with the most effective toolset to defend organizations from cyber-attacks. To rise to the role of the C|CISO, strong technical knowledge, and experience are more imperative now than ever before. Still, it must be accompanied by the ability to communicate in business value. C|CISOs understand that their information security decisions often directly impact their organization’s operational cost, efficiency, and agility. As organizations introduce new technologies, C|CISOs will develop and communicate a strategy to avoid the potential risks stemming from implementing the organization’s operations.

C|CISO is not a technical course but a leadership course designed specifically for experienced InfoSec professionals. The C|CISO course covers the 5 CCISO Domains with deep dives into scenarios taken from the experience of the CISOs who contribute to building the Body of Knowledge.

The C|CISO program is for executives looking to hone their skills & learn to better align their information security programs to the organization’s goals and aspiring CISOs. In comparison, other information security management certification programs focus on middle management; the C|CISO focuses on exposing middle managers to executive-level content and encouraging existing CISOs to improve their own processes & programs continually.

Achieving the CCISO Certification will differentiate you from others in the competitive ranks of senior Information Security Professionals. In addition, CCISO will provide your employers with the assurance that as a CCISO executive leader, you possess the proven knowledge and experience to plan and oversee Information Security for the entire corporation.
