Why Certify with (ISC)²

Certification by a respected accreditation organization is becoming indispensable to the information security professional. Positions in many large corporations and governmental agencies worldwide now require certification, and credentialed practitioners have a higher earning potential, as well as greatly expanded career opportunities. What's more, as a member of (ISC)², you're joining an elite network of certified information security professionals.

Nowhere is the need more evident than within today’s government. The DoD 8570 skills matrix indicates the importance of (ISC)² certifications to that initiative. Many of the (ISC)² education programs are covered by the GI bill, where funding is made available to further careers into the growing field of information security.
