CISM - Course Description
ALC brings you the "CISM's CISM" (Certified Information Security Manager) training course. This 5-day training program is presented by international security expert Krag Brotby, lead author of official ISACA CISM Review manual and recipient of the ISACA 2009 John W. Lainhart IV Common Body of Knowledge Award.
CISM properly recognises that security is first and foremost a management rather than a technical issue. CISM defines the core competencies and international standards of performance that information security managers are expected to master. It provides executive management with the assurance that those who have earned their CISM have the experience and knowledge to offer effective security management and advice.
The course provides an intense environment in which participants can acquire, thoroughly and properly, the skills and knowledge expected of a world-class information security manager. In the process the course provides outstanding preparation for the CISM exam.
