More Than an Exam Preparation Course

CISSP is designed around the responsibilities of cybersecurity professionals who must balance technology, people, processes, risk, governance, and business objectives. For that reason, this course emphasizes not only what a security control does, but also why it should be selected, when it should be implemented, and how it supports organizational risk management.

Students are encouraged to think beyond individual technologies and approach security challenges from the perspective of a trusted security professional responsible for protecting the organization as a whole.
