One of our most popular courses is the ISACA Certified Information Security Manager® (CISM®). Could it be right for you or your team? Read on.
What is ISACA CISM®?
The ISACA Certified Information Security Manager® course, also known as CISM®, helps you develop the skills you need to manage, design, oversee and assess enterprise information security.
Learners often ask about the difference between this course and the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) developed by ISC2. While CISSP is more technical, CISM is more holistic and management-focused.
Who is ISACA CISM® for?
ISACA CISM® is open to anyone with an interest in security, especially Network Achitects, Information Security Managers, and other roles that include management responsibilities related to information security.
How long does CISM® take?
At Firebrand, we specialise in accelerated courses. This course takes only 3 days.
