Next-Level Cloud Security with CCSP
You’ve proven your expertise in cybersecurity…now prove yourself as the authority in cloud security for your organization. If you haven’t considered expanding your expertise to the cloud, now is the time.
The Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) credential was designed to build on your deep technical and managerial CISSP knowledge and position you at the highest level of mastery for cloud security. By earning your CCSP, you’ll validate expert skills to design, manage and secure data, applications and infrastructure in the cloud using best practices, policies and procedures.
PLUS…as a CISSP, you have a distinct advantage, you already meet the CCSP experience requirements making you immediately eligible to sit for the examination. AND, as a certified (ISC)² member, you’ll only pay one AMF, and your CISSP CPEs are transferrable to the CCSP.
The buzz for CCSP [and cloud security certification] is real – CCSP just topped “The Next Big Thing” list as the #1 certification that 2021 Salary Survey respondents plan to earn this year.
