Developed and maintained under a joint agreement between the International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium (ISC)2 and the U. S. National Security Agency, Information Assurance Directorate (NSA/IAD), ISSEP is a master-level, vendor-neutral certification that recognizes mastery of an international standard for information security and understanding of a Common Body of Knowledge (CBK). After studying the course for ISSEP certification, you’ll have the ability to manage, operate, develop and plan an effective network security infrastructure.
To be considered for ISSEP certification, candidates must satisfy the following prerequisites:
Candidates must be a CISSP in good standing* to sit for one or more of the concentration examinations. The term "concentration" exam refers to the class of (ISC) examinations (ISSEP, ISSMP and ISSAP) designed to work in tandem with the CISSP credential. A concentration designation demonstrates that a CISSP has proven capabilities and subject-matter expertise beyond that required for the CISSP credential.
