EC-Council's executive security leadership credential — built for people already running a security program, not learning to run one.
C|CISO certifies the full scope of the CISO role: governance/risk/compliance, executive leadership, security program management, core technical competencies across the entire security stack, and the strategic/financial/procurement side most technical certs never touch. Unlike every other course in this catalog, C|CISO has real eligibility requirements — 5 years of verified experience across all 5 domains for the self-study path (or 3 of 5 with official training) — so this is prep for experienced security leaders who already qualify to sit the exam, not a beginner's on-ramp.
