About this event

First introduced in 1999, the BCS (formerly ISEB) Certificate in Information Security Management Principles (CiSMP) is a trusted foundation-level qualification, which is ideally suited for those new to the subject before they progress onto more advanced practitioner-level programmes in specialised areas. The current version of the BCS syllabus (v9.0) was refreshed and reformatted in 2020. The CiSMP covers a broad range of topics and is closely aligned with ISO/IEC 27001, the international standard for information security. Award holders will develop an understanding of key concepts in information security, risk management, business continuity as well as related data governance and regulatory compliance areas.

By obtaining the BCS Foundation Certificate Information Security Management Principles, award holders will be able to demonstrate:

  • Knowledge of core information security concepts (confidentiality, integrity, availability, vulnerability, threats, risks, countermeasures)
  • Understanding of the legislation and regulations that impact information security management
  • Awareness of relevant national and international standards and frameworks
  • Knowledge of the business and technical environments in which information security management must operate
  • Understanding of the categorisation, operation and effectiveness of controls of different types and characteristics
