  1. ISC2 Just Cut the CISSP Waiver List in Half. If You Were Counting on a Shortcut, Your Plan Just Died.

    Two days ago — April 1, 2026 — ISC2 quietly did something that blindsided thousands of aspiring CISSPs. They slashed their experience waiver list from over 50 certifications down to 25. Gone from the list: CISA, CRISC, CEH, OSCP, and roughly 26 other certs that security professionals were counting on to skip a year of experience requirements. If you were planning to use one of those as your "fast lane" to CISSP, that lane is closed. And here's the thing: nobody was really talking about […]

  4. Just passed the #CISSP exam on my first attempt!

    Big thanks to @SkillCertExams — their practice questions were incredibly accurate and well-explained. Studied for 6 weeks, focused on understanding concepts over memorization.

    If you're preparing for CISSP, I highly recommend using quality practice questions that mirror real exam logic. You got this!

  5. I'm studying for #CISSP after 9 years of being #cybersecurity practitioner and 24 years of working in IT as a whole.

    Some questions/theory in there is so old that it hurts (and I can totally imagine how the course may be hard for youngsters who for example never have seen nor erased an EPROM with UV light).

    Some parts are hard for me as an European, because I didn't deal much with US laws and standards and have to memorize them now.

    Some parts are just tiring as I am constantly re-learning them and forgetting again over the years, like the subtle differences between various roles in data management or the many abbreviations which are variations on the same in different contexts - many key indicators, formulas etc.

    TL;DR: I hope I'll pass and then don't need to repeat it for a few years... I don't like certifications, but in this world, they're a handy proof of "knowledge" or at least of ability to memorize a lot of stuff.

    Also, a friend of mine is trying to persuade me to go for #OSCP - and that one is something I'm both intrigued with and afraid of it 😄

  6. I just wanted you to know that doing #thm learning paths can be used to gain #cpe for #isc2.

  7. I'm happy to announce my #CISSP certification has been endorsed and approved by #ISC2 🎉 Another badge to add to the profile, and I'm working on a few more in #2025 🤞psafe.ly/MMHQh9

  8. It’s little wonder so many people complain about not passing the ISC2 CC/CISSP exams with “The questions were nothing like I expected” when you have “Security Professionals” posting the most asinine “sample questions” in the ISC2 LinkedIn groups.

    Dorothy dixers like:
    * What port does DNS/HTTP/IMAP use?
    * What Linux command is used to list a file
    * What is an example of social engineering from a list of “SQL Injection, credential stuffing, Phishing and pretexting”

    ISC2 exams will rarely, if ever, ask these types of questions.

  9. All my hardcopy stuff from ISC2 arrived in the mail today.

    I don't know if I am a fan of the new branded style of the certificate with the green trim though. I would have much preferred the one with the gold guilding text and logo with the old-english style text.

    I’ve added the CISSP pin to my Australian Information Security Association (AISA) Lanyard, but would love to see pins as well for both AISA and Australian Computing Society (ACS).

  10. I would like to thank EC-Council EC-Council University for the webinar which I had attended with them. Thanks very much. Hundreds of people attended the webinar, as far as I could recall and most of them stayed and were interested in my lecture that I provided as well. The webinar was good.

    A lot was covered in this talk including but not limited to securing 5G Networks, Supply Chain Cybersecurity within the Aviation Industry, Homomorphic Encryption, Securing VR and AR Devices and much more. Video will be out soon.

  11. @jo I find I get the most understanding when I subscribe to #OutInTech on #LinkedIn so I can see what the beautiful and interesting community can teach me about #cissp #manager #b2bsales

  12. I put some #CPEs in for my #CISSP at
    #ISC2.
    Eventually, I was auto-logged out. That's fine.
    The window was redirected to #Salesforce. Yes, the #Security certification company redirected my browser to a third party site without interaction/agreement by the user.

  13. So I did what I always knew I would do and waited until the last year of my #CISSP renewal to get most of my #CPEs done. What is everyone's go-to for getting CPEs that are useful without spending a ton of money. I know about the included BrightTalk ones but looking for other alternatives.

  15. Hej alla, jag söker med ljus och lykta efter vettiga och prisvärda utbildningskurser inom CISM (eventuellt CISSP). Min arbetsgivare satsar på cybersäkerhet och jag vill att den satsningen ska löna sig.

    Tips tas emot tacksamt!

  16. @CoachKahnsef @mikemcdnet as someone who hasn't taken the #cissp, what makes the #ccsp easier? Is it just the absence of the on-prem security topics?

  17. Just finished my first full practice test. 100/125 questions for an 80%, which is passing but below my desired threshold of 90%.Whatever. Time to learn from my mistakes and maybe sneak in another one later today.
