What is CISM?

CISM (Certified Information Security Manager) is an ISACA certification focused on information-security management and governance. It validates the ability to design and manage an enterprise information-security program, distinct from hands-on technical security work.

What it means

ISACA's credentialing page lists CISM among its certifications, with a free exam content outline available; review materials and courses are paid. CISM is management-oriented — covering security governance, risk management, program development, and incident management — and is aimed at professionals moving toward security leadership.
