A Firebrand Training
5
Day Course
The five-day review seminar is the most comprehensive, complete review seminar discussing the entire information system security common body of knowledge. The benefit of the review seminar is to help the individual prepare for the exam. However, it also serves as a very good learning tool for concepts and topics, known as the Common Body of Knowledge (CBK), related to all aspects of information systems security.
This is the only review seminar endorsed by (ISC)2 (the organization that created and manages the CISSP certification) to familiarise you with the CISSP CBK
Information security professionals invest substantially in information assets, including technology, architecture and process. But how can protection of these assets be ensured? Only through the strengths of the professionals in charge.
Industry standards, ethics and certification of IS professionals and practitioners becomes critical to ensuring a higher standard for security is achieved. (ISC)2, as the only not-for-profit consortium charged with maintaining, administering and certifying IS professionals in the Common Body of Knowledge (CBK), is the premier resource for IS professionals worldwide.
Other accelerated training providers rely heavily on lecture and independent self-testing and study.
Effective technical instruction must be highly varied and interactive to keep attention levels high, promote camaraderie and teamwork between the students and instructor, and solidify knowledge through hands-on learning.
This information has been provided as a helpful tool for candidates considering certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes. Firebrand Training provides a guarantee of obtaining certification at the camp, but does not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification.
A discussion of the topics, subtopics, and sub-subtopics of the CBK domains is provided during the five days. The material has been redesigned and updated to reflect the latest information system security issues, concerns, and countermeasures.
An overview of the topics, subtopics, and sub-subtopics of the ten CBK domains are discussed during the five days.
The curriculum for the CISSP seminar is under continuous review, ensuring current information relevant to the ten CBK domains below. For additional details on the CBK, download a copy of the CISSP Study Guide.
The following topics are presented:
Even though the curriculum and CBK were developed in the United States, the material does not boast a definite US flavor. In fact, the material, as well as the exam, focuses on international issues.
The CISSP Certification examination consists of 250 multiple-choice questions. Candidates have up to 6 hours to complete the examination. Ten CISSP information systems security test domains are covered in the examination pertaining to the Common Body of Knowledge:
Upon successfully passing your CISSP Certification examination, you will receive your certificate and ID card. You are also eligible to be listed in the CISSP Directory, can elect to participate in the Speakers' Bureau, and you can serve on ISC)2 committees and participate in annual elections.
Recertification is also required every 3 years, with on-going requirements for maintaining your credentials in good standing. This is primarily accomplished through continuing professional education [CPE] and the earning of 120 CPE credits every three years. More on qualifying for credits will be available upon certification.
The official (ISC)2 five-day review course provides information security professionals, namely Network Administrators and Executive Managers, the information required to demonstrate a mastery of information security - and ultimately pass the Certified Information Systems Security Professional exam.
CBK Review seminars are held regularly worldwide to ensure information system security professionals have an opportunity to review the CBK in-depth, in preparation for the CISSP certification examinations and to stay current on the ever-evolving domains within the information system security field. this intense week of study includes:

Our instructors teach to accommodate every student's learning needs through individualised instruction, hands-on labs, lab partner and group exercises, independent study, self-testing, and question/answer drills.
Firebrand Training has dedicated, well-equipped educational facilities where you will attend instruction and labs and have access to comfortable study and lounging rooms. Our students consistently say our facilities are second-to-none.

To become a CISSP, a candidate must successfully complete two processes: Examination and Certification:
The eligibility requirements to sit for the CISSP examination are completely separate from the eligibility requirements necessary to be certified.
To sit for the CISSP examination, a candidate must:
To be issued a certificate, a candidate must:
Once a candidate has been notified of passing the CISSP examination, he or she will be required to have his or her application endorsed by a CISSP before the credential can be awarded. If no CISSP can be found, another qualified professional with knowledge of information systems or an officer of the candidates corporation can be used to validate the candidate's professional experience.
The endorser will attest that the candidate's assertions regarding professional experience are true to the best of their knowledge, and that the candidate is in good standing within the information security industry.
Upon receipt of the Endorsement Form and barring a random audit of the candidate's professional experience, the CISSP credential should be awarded within one business day, with a formal notification sent via e-mail.
A percentage of the candidates who pass the CISSP examination and submit endorsements will be randomly subjected to audit and required to submit a resume for formal review and investigation.
If audited (subject to results), the credential will be awarded within seven business days and notification sent via e-mail. Naturally, there may be some delays due to mail service or the number of forms received. Also, audits may require additional time for verifying information and/or contacting references.
Firebrand Training staff interview all potential students regarding their technical background, degrees and certifications held, and personal fortitude. This screening process ensures a successful match between the customer and Firebrand Training toward accelerated training and certification.
Firebrand Training is an aggressive training environment. You must have an attitude aimed for success. The above prerequisites are guidelines, but many students with less experience have other background or traits that have enabled their success in accelerated training through Firebrand Training.
