OVERVIEW:

Internationally respected CISM is recognized by organizations worldwide as the best approach to ensuring the necessary level of information security practitioner and management competence.

CISM® defines the core competencies and international standards of performance that effective security managers are expected to master. It provides executive management with assurance that those that have earned the certification have the experience and knowledge to ensure effective business-focused security.

This CISM INTENSIVE BOOT CAMP is taught by international security expert, Krag Brotby the co-author of the official ISACA CISM Review Manual.  This training provides an intense environment in which participants can acquire the skills and knowledge required of a world-class information security manager. This training provides an outstanding preparation for the CISM exam.

This intensive boot camp is structured to follow the official CISM Review Manual and examination flow.  A full day is provided for each of the core competencies and associated task and knowledge statements, ensuring a detailed and thorough coverage of all areas that will be tested.  The fundamental thrust of examination is  understanding the concepts and critical thinking, not on memorizing facts.  As a result, the training is presented in an interactive manner to ensure the underlying concepts are thoroughly understood and examination questions can be analyzed properly to achieve the best answer.

WHY CISM?

The most prestigious qualification available for information security managers today, the Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) certification sets a high bar for managers. Organizations around the world, including the government, are finding the time-tested, internationally respected CISM certification the best approach to ensuring the necessary level of information security practitioner and management competence.

CISM focuses on the job performed by an information security manager. Other security certifications are characterized by a focus on technical skills or platform, or product-specific knowledge, or they are aimed at the practitioner in the earlier years of their career. Only CISM targets the information security manager – the individual who has progressed beyond the practitioner focus. CISM is for the individual who must manage and oversee the enterprise’s information security effort, including the practitioners, many of whom may hold other certifications the field offers.

The focus on management that makes CISM unique is demonstrated in its experience requirement, which calls for a minimum of three years in information security management, and in its exam focus that is based on the practices performed by information security managers.

CISM defines the core competencies and international standards of performance that effective security managers are expected to master. It provides executive management with assurance that those that have earned the certification have the experience and knowledge to ensure effective business-focused security.
