Course Overview

thinQtank® Learning is offering a unique five-day training camp comprised of five days of instructor-led learning for Certified Chief Information Security Officer. As with all our EC-Council Training Experiences - exams are delivered in the classroom.

The CCISO Certification is an industry-leading program that recognizes the real-world experience necessary to succeed at the highest executive levels of information security. Bringing together all the components required for a C-Level positions, the CCISO program combines audit management, governance, IS controls, human capital management, strategic program development, and the financial expertise vital to leading a highly successful IS program. Material in the CCISO Program assumes a high-level understanding of technical topics and doesn't spend much time on strictly technical information, but rather on the application of technical knowledge to an information security executive's day-to-day work. The CCISO aims to bridge the gap between the executive management knowledge that CISOs need and the technical knowledge that many aspiring CISOs have. This can be a crucial gap as practitioners endeavor to move from mid-management to upper, executive management roles. Much of this is traditionally learned as on the job training, but the CCISO Training Program can be the key to a successful transition to the highest ranks of information security management.

Our instructors are well-versed in accelerated learning concepts and exam preparation. During our CCISO boot camp, the experience of working with thousands of exam takers give our team unique insight into the learning requirements needed for success. They are recognized industry experts in the fields of cyber security, risk management, and business continuity.
