• Although not mandatory, it is beneficial to have some practical experience in an IT or information security role.

Please note that these prerequisites are meant to provide a solid foundation for the complex and in-depth material covered in the CISSP course. The actual CISSP certification process also requires candidates to have a minimum of five years of cumulative, paid work experience in two or more of the eight domains of the CISSP Common Body of Knowledge (CBK).
