The full federal authorization credential on the assessor track. Participants build out the whole Risk Management Framework core — categorizing systems, selecting and documenting SP 800-53 controls, running continuous monitoring — and then specialize in the independent assessment craft: advanced 800-53A technique and the end-to-end work of planning, running, and documenting a security control assessment that holds together. Aligns to NIST SP 800-37, 800-53 Rev 5, 800-53A, 800-137, and the NICE ISSO/ISSM and Security Control Assessor work roles.

Prepares you for: security control assessor and 3PAO assessor roles, and preparation toward the ISC2 CGRC. Working the cloud side instead? See Federal Cybersecurity Authorization Professional: Cloud & FedRAMP Authorization.
