ISACA is pleased to offer the 2013 (11th) edition of the CISM® Review Manual. The purpose of this manual is to provide CISM candidates with updated technical information and references to assist in the preparation and study for the Certified Information Security Manager exam.
The CISM job practice can be viewed at www.isaca.org/cismjobpractice and in the Candidate’s Guide to the CISM® Exam and Certification. The exam is based on the knowledge statements in the job practice, which involved thousands of CISMs and other industry professionals worldwide who served as committee members, focus group participants, subject matter experts and survey respondents.
The CISM® Review Manual is updated annually to keep pace with rapid changes in the management, design, oversight and assessment of information security. As with previous manuals, the 2013 edition is the result of contributions from many qualified authorities who have generously volunteered their time and expertise. We respect and appreciate their contributions and hope their efforts provide extensive educational value to CISM manual readers.
Your comments and suggestions regarding this manual are welcome. After taking the exam, please take a moment to complete the online questionnaire (www.isaca.org/studyaidsevaluation). Your observations will be invaluable for the preparation of the 2014 edition of the CISM® Review Manual.
The sample questions contained in this manual are designed to depict the type of questions typically found on the CISM exam and to provide further clarity to the content presented in this manual. The CISM exam is a practice-based exam. Simply reading the reference material in this manual will not properly prepare candidates for the exam. The sample questions are included for guidance only. Scoring results do not indicate future individual exam success.
Certification has resulted in a positive impact on many careers. CISM is designed to provide executive management with assurance that those earning the designation have the required knowledge and ability to provide effective information security management and consulting. While the central focus of the CISM certification is information security management, all those in the IT profession with security experience will certainly find value in the CISM designation. ISACA wishes you success with the CISM exam.
