Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)
Five Day Course
This course will expand upon your knowledge by addressing the essential elements of the 10 domains that comprise a Common Body of Knowledge (CBK)® for information systems security professionals. The course offers a job-related approach to the security process, while providing the basic skills required to prepare for CISSP certification.
You will control access to data and information systems using common access control best practices. You will discover how networks are designed for security, and the components, protocols, and services that allow telecommunications to occur in a secure manner. Next, you will learn about the principles of security management and how to manage risk as part of a comprehensive information security management program. You will explore applications and systems development security controls. Then, you will learn how to perform cryptography and how to secure system architecture. You will examine operations security and the appropriate controls and best practices to use to keep operations secure. You will learn how to perform business continuity planning and apply physical security to protect organizational assets and resources. Finally, you will explore law, investigations, and ethics with respect to information systems security and computer forensics.
Students pursuing CISSP training want to establish themselves as credible computer security professionals through a study of all 10 CISSP Common Body of Knowledge domains. Validating this knowledge is the goal of certification; therefore, students attending this training should also meet the requirements needed to sit for the CISSP certification exam. These include four years of direct professional work experience in one or more fields related to 10 CBK security domains, or a college degree and three years of experience. Check with (ISC)2 for the most up-to-date requirements. New certifications have emerged and will continue to emerge from (ISC)2, which may cause changes to base requirements.
Students should have certifications in A+, Network+, or Security+, or possess equivalent professional experience. Students may have one or more of the following certifications or equivalent experience: MCSE, SCNP, CCNP, RHCE, LCE, CNE, SSCP, SANS, or GIAC.
Module 1: Controlling Access to Information Systems
Module 2: Networking Systems and Telecommunications
Module 3: Defining Security Management
Module 4: Creating Applications Security
Module 5: Performing Cryptography
Module 6: Securing System Architecture
Module 7: Executing Operations Security
Module 8: Performing Business Continuity Planning
Module 9: Applying Physical Security
Module 10: Applying Law, Investigations, and Ethics
In order for a class to be successful, all students should share the same general level
of knowledge and experience. If a participant does not demonstrate these, the instructor will take
the necessary steps either to prepare the participant or place him/her in a more appropriate course.
This policy is intended to maintain the high level of quality control that you have come to expect.
