What You
Can
ISC2 describes the CISSP as a way to prove “you have what it takes to effectively design, implement and manage a best-in-class cybersecurity program”. It is one of the primary certifications used as a stepping point in your cybersecurity career.
NOTICE: CISSP Mentorship Program runs every Tuesday at 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM ET starting on March 4th and concluding May 9th for the first session of 2025 and September 9th and concluding November 11th for the second session of 2025. Registering for the upcoming event will grant you access to all the weekly meetings.
To accomplish this, Secure Ideas has developed a mentorship program designed to provide the knowledge necessary to pass the certification, while working through the common body of knowledge (CBK) in a manner that encourages retention of the knowledge. The mentorship program is designed as a 10-week series of sessions along with various student support and communication methods. These work together to provide the student a solid foundation to not only help in passing the certification but to continue as a collection of information for everyday work. This class is set up to cover the 8 domains of the ISC2 CBK.
The mentorship program is designed as a series of weekly mentor led discussion and review sessions along with various student support and communication methods, spanning a total of 10 weeks. These work together to provide the student a solid foundation to not only help in passing the certification but to continue as a collection of information for everyday work. This class is set up to cover the 8 domains of the ISC2 CBK:
- Security and Risk Management
- Asset Security
- Security Architecture and Engineering
- Communication and Network Security
- Identity and Access Management (IAM)
- Security Assessment and Testing
- Security Operations
- Software Development and Security
The Professionally Evil CISSP Mentorship Program uses multiple communication and knowledge sharing paths to build a comprehensive learning environment focused on both passing the CISSP certification and gaining a deep understanding of the CBK.
The program consists of the following parts:
- Official study guide book
- Weekly live session with instructor(s)
- Live session will also be recorded
- Private Slack team for students and instructors to communicate regularly
- Practice Exams
While we believe students will pass on their first try, we also include the option for students to take the program as many times as they want, any time we offer it.
All students receive access to live class lectures, class recordings, and a private Slack team for student/instructor communication.
