• In-depth Knowledge of Security Engineering: Learn how to apply security engineering practices to the design, development, and implementation of complex systems, ensuring robust protection against potential threats. 

• System Security and Risk Management Expertise: Understand how to identify, analyze, and mitigate security risks throughout the system lifecycle, using methodologies that align with industry standards. 

• Practical Understanding of Secure Design and Engineering: Gain experience in designing security measures and controls that align with system development and integrate seamlessly into the system engineering process. 

• Hands-on Application in Security Engineering: Use case studies and practical exercises to apply the skills you’ve learned, addressing real-world challenges in securing complex systems across industries. 

• Comprehensive Knowledge of Security Frameworks and Compliance: Learn how to implement security measures that align with regulatory frameworks such as NIST, ISO, and other standards governing system security. 

Upon successful completion of this course, you will be prepared to take and pass the ISC(2) ISSEP certification exam. This certification will demonstrate your expertise in securing systems throughout their lifecycle, applying a risk-based approach to secure design, and aligning with industry regulations and best practices. You will also gain the skills necessary to support and lead efforts in system security engineering within your organization. 

This course is ideal for senior-level security professionals, including: 

• Security Architects 

• Security Consultants 

• IT Managers and Directors 

• Risk Management Professionals 

• Systems Integrators 

• Network Engineers with a focus on security 

• Professionals responsible for developing and securing enterprise architecture 

To enroll in the ISSEP course, candidates should have: 

• ISC(2) CISSP Certification: The ISSEP certification requires that candidates hold the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) credential, as this is an advanced-level certification that builds upon the knowledge and experience gained through CISSP. 

• Experience in Systems Engineering and Security: It is recommended that candidates have several years of practical experience in systems engineering or information security, as this course is designed for professionals with existing knowledge of systems and security concepts. 

• Familiarity with Risk Management Frameworks and System Design: Prior experience with risk management, system engineering lifecycle processes, and security engineering principles is highly recommended. 

Upon completion of the course, you will be fully prepared to take the ISC(2) Information Systems Security Engineering Professional (ISSEP) certification exam. Earning this credential will validate your expertise in applying security engineering practices and methodologies to ensure the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of information systems.

After earning the ISSEP certification, you will be qualified for a range of advanced positions in systems security engineering and information assurance, including: 

• Security Engineer: Design and implement security controls to protect systems and networks throughout their lifecycle. 

• Systems Architect: Develop secure systems and architectures that align with business needs and security requirements. 

• Security Consultant: Advise organizations on implementing and integrating security throughout their system designs and processes. 

• Information Assurance Manager: Oversee and manage the development of secure systems and ensure compliance with security policies and regulations. 

• Risk Management Specialist: Assess and mitigate risks within the systems engineering process, ensuring secure development and operation. 

• Chief Information Security Officer (CISO): Lead an organization’s cybersecurity strategy, overseeing the integration of security practices into system design and implementation. 

• Systems Security Analyst: Monitor and analyze system security, implementing measures to secure information systems against potential threats. 

• Compliance Officer: Ensure systems meet regulatory standards for security and risk management throughout the system lifecycle. 

• Cloud Security Engineer: Design and implement secure cloud infrastructures, ensuring systems are protected from threats.
