• 9701 - Cybersecurity Foundations
• G013 - CompTIA Security+

• This course prepares you for the 2026 ISC2 CISSP examination.
• The examination itself is not part of this course.
• We recommend taking the exam soon after completing the course. Please plan on doing some self-study to prepare for the exam, you can also leverage the practice questions that will be supplied at the start of the course to assess your readiness level. We recommend reserving at least 2 weeks after the course so your exam preparation can fit in with your regular workload/hours.
