FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is a CCSP boot camp?
A CCSP Boot Camp is an intensive training program to prepare professionals for the Certified Cloud Security Practitioner (CCSP) certification exam. It comprehensively covers cloud security concepts, best practices and the skills needed to secure cloud environments.
Who is the CCSP Boot Camp for?
The CCSP Boot Camp is suitable for a range of professionals working in cloud security and related roles. It benefits enterprise systems architects, security administrators, systems and security engineers, security consultants, security managers and individuals seeking to enhance their knowledge and skills in securing cloud-based environments.
How long does it take to prepare for the CCSP?
Preparing for the CCSP certification exam depends on several factors, such as your prior experience, familiarity with cloud security concepts and how much time you can commit to studying. Enrolling in Infosec’s CCSP Boot Camp significantly accelerates your preparation by providing a condensed and focused learning experience.
Is the CCSP exam difficult?
The CCSP exam is challenging and requires a solid understanding of cloud security concepts, best practices and their application in real-world scenarios. With thorough preparation, including attending a CCSP Boot Camp, studying the recommended resources and practicing with sample questions, you can pass the exam on your first attempt.
Can you take the CCSP exam without experience?
While professional experience in cybersecurity and cloud security is highly beneficial, it is not mandatory to take the CCSP exam. (ISC)², the organization behind CCSP, offers the option to become an Associate of (ISC)² by passing the exam without the required work experience. But you greatly benefit from hands-on, practical experience in cloud security. It can significantly enhance your understanding and how to apply the various CCSP concepts.

I really appreciate that our instructor was extremely knowledgeable and was able to provide the information in a way that could be understood. He also provided valuable test-taking strategies that I know not only helped me with this exam but will help in all exams I take in the future.
Michelle Jemmott, Pentagon
Excellent! Our instructor had a vast background and related the materials to real life. Much better than just teaching the materials to pass an exam... but he did that as well. He went out of his way in class. The extra materials really benefited us when we returned to our real jobs! Great experience!
John Peck, EPA
Very impressed with Infosec. My instructor did a great job delivering the information strategically and in a way for all to understand. I would definitely take another class/certification prep course.
