This entire training track is taught in English.

The world is in dire need of cyber security professionals who have the required skills to guide their organisations towards a safe and sound information security framework, with all the 360° aspects it entails.

Our full Certified CISO training programme is a step in the right direction and will provide you with an intense overview of the aspects it takes to get a helicopter view of the cybersecurity issues in your organisation in the function of Chief Information Security Officer.

The 7 CISO modules on our website, that can be booked separately according to your personal interests, constitute a complete training programme and can also be booked as a whole.
