ISC(2) Starts Switch to Computer-Based Testing

The ISC(2) Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) exam is now available at more than 500 Pearson VUE test centers around the world instead of through good old pencil and paper as it was before. This is the first ICS(2) exam to make the move to computer-based delivery, with the CISSP, CAP, and SSCP expected to follow over the next 3 years. The exam price ($549) and question content remain the same. Before you can schedule a CSSLP exam date, you must register through the ISC(2) website.

(ISC)2 to Move Exams to VUE

Starting with its Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) designation sometime next year, the International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium (ISC)2 will be switching from administering its own certification exams to making them available through the VUE testing network. The other (ISC)2 exams will follow over the following 3 years.
