Certified: The CCISO Prepcast

Before registering for the CCISO exam, it’s crucial to understand EC-Council’s eligibility rules—and in this episode, we walk you through every requirement. The CCISO isn’t a certification you can simply purchase and attempt. It’s designed for experienced professionals who have spent years working in key areas of security leadership. We clarify the two pathways to eligibility: the formal training route and the experience-only waiver, detailing what documentation, job roles, and domain-specific work history you'll need to demonstrate for either option.

More than just paperwork, these requirements are a reflection of the real-world executive maturity the certification demands. This episode helps you assess where you stand, what you may still need, and how to prepare your application materials with confidence. Whether you're applying via experience or taking the official CCISO course, this episode ensures there are no surprises and no wasted steps.
