Before you start
This is an advanced course. To earn the full CCSP, ISC2 asks for five years of paid, full-time IT work. Three of those years must be in cybersecurity, and one must be in at least one of the six CCSP domains. A relevant degree or the CSA CCSK certificate can take off one year, and an active CISSP covers the full experience rule. If you pass the exam without enough experience, you can become an Associate of ISC2 while you build it.
About the CCSP exam
The CCSP is issued by ISC2, the body behind the CISSP. It confirms that you have the advanced skills to secure data, applications and infrastructure in cloud settings. It is vendor-neutral, so it is not tied to a single cloud provider. The exam covers six domains: cloud concepts, architecture and design; cloud data security; cloud platform and infrastructure security; cloud application security; cloud security operations; and legal, risk and compliance. The credential is accredited under ISO/IEC 17024 and is approved under the US Department of Defense 8140 framework.

Frequently asked questions
What experience do I need for the CCSP?
ISC2 asks for five years of paid IT work, with three in cybersecurity and one in a CCSP domain. A relevant degree or the CCSK can take off one year, and an active CISSP covers the full rule.
Can I take the CCSP exam without the experience?
Yes. If you pass without enough experience, you can become an Associate of ISC2 and then build the required years of work.
Which domains does the course cover?
All six CCSP domains: cloud concepts, architecture and design; legal, risk and compliance; cloud data security; cloud platform and infrastructure security; cloud application security; and cloud security operations.
Is the CCSP tied to AWS, Azure or Google Cloud?
No. It is vendor-neutral, so the skills apply across cloud providers.
Should I take CCSK or CISSP before CCSP?
Many learners take CCSK first as a cloud security foundation, which can also count towards the CCSP experience rule. CISSP is a broader security credential that suits people who want both.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. You get a StemBoss Certificate of Completion when you finish the course.
Can I get a refund?
