The Certified Information Systems Security Officer Exam will take approximately 2 hours.  It is a multiple choice exam and will be taken online via your Mile2.com account.


100 exam questions are served from a much larger bank of questions so each exam is unique.  However, all of the topics described to the left are covered in every exam. 


A passing score of 70% is required to earn the C)ISSO certification from Mile2.  The certification is valid for 3 years.  Certification Renewal Policies can be found at https://mile2.com/cert-renewal/.


There is an opportunity to retake the exam should you not pass the 1st time.  Our free “Second Chance Exam” will automatically load if you do not pass the certification exam on your first attempt.


We encourage you to use the unlimited practice exams and exam prep guide to prepare yourself for the certification exam.


If you do not achieve the passing score after two attempts you will need to purchase a new exam attempt and there may be a waiting period before you can retake the Certified Information Systems Security Officer exam again.

Is Training Available for the Certified Information Systems Security Officer Exam?

There are two options for training to help prepare you for the Certified Information Systems Security Officer Exam.

 

1.  The Ultimate Self-Study Combo will give you 12 months of access to instructional materials as well as access to the certification exam.

 

2.  The Live Class will give you everything in the Ultimate Self-Study Combo plus 5 days of live instruction via an online classroom.

 

All materials and exams are accessed through your Mile2.com account.

What Learning Materials Come
With the Training?

1.  Ebook/s –  These online flip books have been built by industry and subject matter experts to deliver you a dynamic learning experience.  Each chapter includes text as well as infographics for visual learners.  Plus there is plenty of space on each page for notes.

2.  Videos – The videos coincide with the books with a recorded instructor going through each page and adding descriptions, life experiences, and conversational-style delivery for auditory learners.

3. Exam Prep Guide – Much like an ATC or SAT prep guide, the prep guide will briefly cover all topics and areas you should be prepared to be questioned in during the certification exam.

4.  Practice Exam – Unlimited practice exams simulate the exam environment, but beware!  The questions on the exam are NOT the same as in the exam simulator.  Often, the practice exam questions are a bit easier.  A good score on the practice exam will not guarantee a good score on the certification exam.

5.  Certification Exam – A multiple choice test

6.  Second Chance Exam – Should you not achieve the 70% score needed for certification on your first attempt.
