Mile2's Certified Information Systems Security Officer - C)ISSO - program prepares and certifies individuals to analyze an organization's information security infrastructure in respects to threats and risks. This course helps you design a security program to mitigate risks relevant to 2011. In mile2's certification process, Information Systems Security Officers will also be proficient in risk analysis, risk mitigation, application security, network security, operations security, business continuity and disaster recovery planning.

Mile2 has observed that many respected organizations and instructors approach the delivery of both the CISSP® and Information Systems Security Officer prep events as an information technology security event. The focus therefore is inevitably on the technology used in the processing of data into information. This is relatively incomplete, as technology is only one of the many components of an information system. mile2's certified Information Systems Security Officer training attempts to balance both theory and technology.

Certification Background: our Information Systems Security Officer certification was inspired by a Dual Initiative between the DOD and DND: CANCUS CDISM MOU – ID#1974100118. This was a direct initiative of the DND – Department of National Defense of Canada in cooperation with the DOD – Department of Defense of the United States. These and other institutions use and recognize the ISSO acronym - Information Systems Security Officer.Certified Information Systems Security Officer Module Topics:
