CISM definition
Certified Information Security Manager, or CISM, is a certification for advanced IT professionals who want to demonstrate that they can develop and manage an infosec program at the enterprise level. It’s offered by ISACA, a nonprofit professional association focused on IT governance, and focuses on four core areas:
- Information security management
- Information risk management and compliance
- Information security program development and management
- Information security incident management
If you’re interested in making business decisions about cybersecurity and working with — or maybe joining — your organization’s leadership, the CISM is worth pursuing.
