Prerequisites. None to sit the CISM Exam. However, you will need to demonstrate a minimum of 5-years of professional information security management work experience - as described in the CISM job practice areas to achieve the Certification. The work experience for CISM certification must be gained within the 10-year period preceding the application date for certification. Candidates have 5-years from the passing date to apply for certification.
Substitutions and waivers may be obtained for a maximum of 2-years to reduce the 5-years of professional information security management work experience
Materials Update
Starting on 3 November 2026, ISACA’s CISM certification will reflect updated job practice areas.
The exam format will include greater emphasis on information security strategy and program development.
The exam will also add two new content areas: enterprise architecture and information security architecture, reflecting the need to understand the technologies under a security manager’s purview.
This course will reflect the new materials and content from the outset.
