SSCP® - Systems Security Certified Practitioner
The Go-To-Guy: That’s an Information Security Must-Have
The go-to guy could be you. With as little as one year’s work experience in the information security field, you can become certified as a Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP®).
The SSCP is ideal for those working towards positions such as Network Security Engineers, Security Systems Analysts, or Security Administrators. This is also the perfect course for personnel in many other non-security disciplines that require an understanding of security but do not have information security as a primary part of their job description. This large and growing group includes information systems auditors; application programmers; system, network and database administrators; business unit representatives, and systems analysts.
For your SSCP credential, your professional experience has to be in one or more
of these seven (ISC)² SSCP domains:
- Access Controls
- Analysis and Monitoring
- Cryptography

- Malicious Code
- Networks and Telecommunications
- Risk, Response and Recovery
- Security Operations and Administration
Don’t yet have the necessary years of experience? If you’re working on building your experience right now, you may earn the Associate of (ISC)² designation by passing the required SSCP examination.
