Firebrand’s CISSP Boot Camp is an accelerated course that will prepare you to take the challenging CISSP exam. Accelerated training is fast, but this is not a crash course – you’ll learn from a real-world security expert and study everything you need to know to pass the exam.
You’ll study the eight CISSP CBK (Common Body of Knowledge) domains using the most up-to-date curriculum and revision materials.
Firebrand’s CISSP bootcamp is ideal for experienced security professionals, including managers, auditors and consultants – or anyone aiming to achieve CISO roles.

The CISSP Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) is an established information security framework covering security terminology, principles and a library of cyber security topics. It is sometimes referred to as the CISSP syllabus.
Created by (ISC)2, the CBK is used to assess a student’s level of security knowledge when preparing for and sitting the CISSP exam.
CISSPs are subject matter experts (SMEs) who work within two or more of these eight domains and possess advanced knowledge, skills, and experience gained through certification.
The CISSP exam covers 8 domains in 2018 which are:
To achieve this certification, you must have at least five years of cumulative, paid and full-time work experience in two or more of the eight CISSP CBK domains.
However, if you don’t meet these requirements, you can get a one-year experience waiver with:
You may also opt to take and sit the CISSP exam without the required experience. If you do pass the exam without the prerequisite experience, you will become an Associate of (ISC)2. You’ll then have six years to earn the work experience required, at which point you will receive your CISSP certification.
The CISSP exam costs £560 in the UK.
The CISSP CAT exam duration is three hours. Exceptions can be provided to candidates with medical accommodations that are pre-approved by (ISC)2.
There is no minimum exam duration and students may proceed through the exam at their own pace.
The average annual salary for professionals holding the CISSP certification is £60,000 – according to data from ITJobsWatch.
This accelerated CISSP course will prepare you for the following exam. The exam voucher is included in the course price. If you wish to take the exam, we'll provide guidance on how to book your seat at a Pearson Vue testing centre.
You'll be tested on the eight CISSP domains:
Once you have successfully passed your certification exam, you'll receive your certificate and ID card. Upon receiving notification of your exam success, you will be required to subscribe to the (ISC)2 Code of Ethics and have your application endorsed before the credential can be awarded.
An endorsement form for this purpose must be completed and signed by an (ISC)2 certified professional who is an active member, and who can attest to your professional experience. You are required to become certified within nine months of the date of your exam.
If you do not become certified or an Associate of (ISC)2 within 9 months of the date of your exam, you will be required to retake the exam in order to become certified. It is possible for (ISC)2 to endorse you if you cannot find a certified individual to act as one.
The CISSP certification has annual and three-year CPE requirements. To maintain your certification you must:
Please note: Passing candidates may be randomly selected and audited by (ISC)2 Member Services prior to issuance of a certification. Attaining multiple certifications may result in a candidate being audited more than once. Firebrand Training will provide support for candidates that are audited.
On your accelerated CISSP course, you'll get access to resources only available to authorised (ISC)2 training providers:
Firebrand will also provide you with:
For this 6 day duration CISSP course, (ISC)2 recognise a maximum of 40 CPEs for an existing (ISC)2 certification holder.

"The scope of the topic immediately strikes the fear of God, filling one with dread and apprehension. Our instructor's eccentric delivery, laced with humour, belies a suitably qualified and experienced person SQEP who never looses site of the need of his students; who he affords the due care and diligence to ensuring you certify. Exceptionally gifted."

"The experience with Firebrand and the instructor we had was second to none. Given how comprehensive the content is, I am still in awe at how well the instructor kept us engaged, spaced the out the breaks really well, and made sure no one was left behind. I would highly recommend going with Firebrand for any training needs you have."
SZ. (4/9/2023 (Monday) to 9/9/2023 (Saturday))
"Absolutely amazing instructor. This is the second time I have trained with him as my instructor. His charisma, positivity and humorous anecdotes help the information to stick. This was a resit for me, and I can confidently say that his efforts have helped me to affirm my knowledge and understanding. I would most certainly return to train with him again hopefully for a different course, as I'm hoping I'll pass my CISSP, and would highly recommend my instructor and Firebrand to others!"
Rashpal Soor. (4/9/2023 (Monday) to 9/9/2023 (Saturday))
"The training course initially felt very full on but as the week progressed, it was clear as to how much information I had taken in and it boosted confidence quite quickly at that point. All staff encountered were friendly and informative. I would definitely recommend Firebrand to anyone"
Jonathan Faulds. (4/9/2023 (Monday) to 9/9/2023 (Saturday))
"Training was great, appreciate the jokes and well-time breaks to help stay engaged in the training."
