(ISC)² is working on an entry level certification, we expect it to be before the SSCP.

(ISC)² is working on an entry level certification, we expect it to be before the SSCP.

That means no cyber/ITSec experience at all required, sort of entry level certification.

You can help shape the certification (and earn 5 CPEs if you are already certified).

The new entry level exam looks like it will have 5 domains covering all the Cyber/IT-Security basics.

Domain 1: Security Principles

Domain 2: Business Continuity (BC), Disaster Recovery (DR), and Incident Response Concepts

Domain 3: Access Controls Concepts

Domain 4: Network Security

  • 1. Understand computer networking
  • 2. Understand network threats and attacks
  • 3. Understand network security infrastructure

Domain 5: Security Operations

 

I hope I can help you get certified,

Thor
