What is CISSP-ISSEP?

CISSP-ISSEP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional - Information Systems Security Engineering Professional) is a concentration within the CISSP certification. It validates an individual's competence in applying systems engineering principles to develop secure systems and architectures. ISSEPs typically work on projects involving complex systems, ensuring security is integrated throughout the system's lifecycle, from design to deployment and maintenance. They often perform security risk assessments, develop security architectures, and implement security controls. This specialization is valued in environments where security is a critical aspect of system development, such as government, defense, and critical infrastructure.
