The Certified Information Security Manager® (CISM®) training was developed by ISACA for experienced information security managers and those who have information security management responsibilities. The course translates ‘Information Assurance’ to specific activities within the information security management domain.  More importantly it also examines how these domains interconnect with each other and focuses on the business side of security. It addresses the connection between business needs and IT security by focusing on risk management and security organizational issues. The CISM certification is for those who manage, design, oversee and/or assess an enterprise’s information security. It also benefits the IT- security professional that wants to have a solid understanding the ‘bigger picture’ of Enterprise Risk Management and/ or is looking to grow and build his/ her career into mid-level and senior management positions.
