The CISSP certification program is governed by the International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium, or (ISC)². The (ISC)² is a non-profit organization that is based in Palm Harbor, Florida. According to the (ISC)² Web site, the CISSP certification is aimed at "mid- and senior-level managers who are working toward or have already attained positions as CISOs, CSOs or senior security engineers". There are a couple elements of the CISSP credential that set it apart from most other vendor-neutral (or vendor-specific, for that matter) programs. For instance, to earn your CISSP you must. Subscribe to the (ISC)² Code of Ethics. Have a minimum five years of direct full-time security professional work experience in two or more of the ten domains of the information systems.
