Certified in Cybersecurity – CC

CC Certification Training

Certified in Cybersecurity – CC training course for the new 2023 exam.

Cybersecurity threats continue to escalate on a global scale, so the need for security experts is at a record high. Yet there remains a scarcity of qualified candidates who can address the shortfall.  A 2022 Cybersecurity Workforce Study shows that the cybersecurity workforce needs an intake of around 3.4 million professionals to meet global demand.

According to Cybercrime Magazine, estimates for the number of open cybersecurity jobs in the USA and worldwide are, respectively, 750,000 and 3.5 million in 2023.  This is one reason why ISC2 has developed the CC certification.

Earning a globally recognized advanced security administration and operations certification like the CC is a great way to grow your career and better secure your organization’s critical assets. CC certification demonstrates you have the fundamental technical skills and knowledge to implement, monitor and administer IT infrastructure using security best practices, policies, and procedures established by the cybersecurity experts at (ISC)².

The CC leads easily onto the intermediate level SSCP which has been listed in the top 10 list of cybersecurity certifications. It's perfect as a stand-alone certification or a complement to the CompTIA Security+, Certified Ethical Hacker, Cisco CyberOps Associate, or Linux Security Administrator. It lays the foundation for more advanced certifications such as CISSP, CASP+ as well as a career as an IT security manager or consultant.

Consider this course if:

  • You want an easy introduction to cybersecurity
  • You are considering a career move into security
  • Aren't ready for more advanced certifications yet
  • Are short on time and want an easy exam pass
  • Are considering a career move into cybersecurity

The CC certification is ideal for students, career changers, junior IT administrators, managers, directors, and network security professionals responsible for the security of their organization’s critical assets and can lead to the following positions:

  • Security Auditor
  • IT Security Manager
  • Systems Administrator
  • Security Analyst
  • Systems Specialist
  • Security Consultant/Specialist
  • Security Administrator
  • Systems/Network Analyst
  • Forensic Specialist

If you are considering a career in cyber security but have no experience yet, the CC is the perfect stepping stone. More advanced certifications, such as the CISSP, require several years of experience. The CC presumes no work experience or previous knowledge, and having an ISC2 certification leads to around 30% higher salaries than your noon-certified colleagues.

You can chose to progress into technical security careers or IT security management depending on your job requirements and career goals.
