Overview

Accelerate your cybersecurity career with the CISSP certification.

This course is the most comprehensive review of information security concepts and industry best practices, and focuses on the eight domains of the CISSP CBK^® (Common Body of Knowledge) that are covered in the CISSP exam. You will gain knowledge in information security that will increase your ability to successfully implement and manage security programs in any organisation or government entity.

Earning the CISSP proves you have what it takes to effectively design, implement and manage a best-in-class cybersecurity program. With a CISSP, you validate your expertise and become an (ISC)² member, unlocking a broad array of exclusive resources, educational tools, and peer-to-peer networking opportunities.

Is your course supplied by an Official (ISC)² Training Provider? DDLS is one of only a few in Australasia who offer official (ISC)² courseware and materials. You wouldn’t update your company’s security policies with versions that were 12-18 months out of date…. By choosing an Official Training Provider, you are guaranteed the very latest in defence strategies and content that is mapped directly to the exam.

Please note: The exam is not included in the course fee. Effective 1st May 2021, the CISSP exam will be based on a new exam outline. Some domains’ weights will change. Please refer to the CISSP Exam Outline and FAQ for details.
