Overview

The Certified Information Security Manager® (CISM®) certification program was developed by ISACA specifically for experienced information security managers and those who have information security management responsibilities. The CISM certification is for those who manage, design, oversee and/or assess an enterprise’s information security (IS).

 

"The CISM certification promotes international practices and provides executive management with assurance that those earning the designation have the required experience and knowledge to provide effective security management and consulting services." (ISACA)

 

With a growing demand for professionals possessing Information Security Management skills, CISm has become a leading individual certification in information security management for individuals and organisations around the world. CISM certification signifies commitment to serving an organization and the Information Security industry with distinction.

 

More than 6,000 professionals have earned the CISM since inception in 2002, so clearly many people agree: earning the CISM is a good career move.

Studying for your CISM Examination

CISM certification is achieved by passing the official CISM exam, which are run in the UK and elsewhere (see below).

 

The most common method of preparing for the CISM certification is to attend a classroom training course. There is only one of these each year for each exam, and places are reserved early - so make your reservation today!

Classroom training is not, however, mandatory and, provided that you meet the registration requirements described below, anyone can sit the CISM exam. There are a number of training aids specifically designed to help you pass the exam.

Exam Center Locations & Registraton

Here are the locations of the Exam Centers for 2008, and you register online with ISACA for the exam. The Candidate's Guide to the CISM Exam provides a detailed outline of the subject areas covered on the examination, a suggested list of reference materials to review, a glossary of acronyms commonly used on the examination, and a sample copy of the answer sheet used for the exam. This publication is automatically forwarded to individuals upon receipt of the CISM exam registration form and payment.

Continuing Professional Education

There is a Continuing Professional Education (CPE) policy in respect of qualified CISM professionals. The goal of this continuing professional education policy is to ensure that all CISMs maintain an adequate level of current knowledge and proficiency in the field of information security management. CISMs who successfully comply with the "continuing professional education policy will be better trained to assess information systems and technology and provide leadership and value to their organizations."

The responsibility for setting the continuing professional education requirements rests with the CISM Certification Board. The Board oversees the continuing professional education process and requirements to ensure their applicability.
