What you'll learn
Training overview
This four-day Information Systems Security Management Professional (ISSMP) Boot Camp focuses on professional management experience and how it relates to a larger enterprise-wide security model. You’ll learn deeper managerial elements such as project management, risk management, setting up and delivering a security awareness program, and managing a business continuity planning program.
This boot camp teaches you how to establish, present and govern information security policies and procedures that are supportive to overall business goals, rather than a drain on resources. It also prepares you to successfully pass the challenging (ISC)² ISSMP exam, one of three “concentration areas” for CISSP holders extending the CISSP common body of knowledge.

You're in good company
The instructor was able to take material that prior to the class had made no sense, and explained it in real world scenarios that were able to be understood.
Erik Heiss, United States Air Force
I really appreciate that our instructor was extremely knowledgeable and was able to provide the information in a way that it 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
The course was extremely helpful and provided exactly what we needed to know in order to successfully navigate the exam. Without this I am not confident I would have passed.
