Firmus is a leading cybersecurity service, solutions and training provider and winner of the Cyber Security Company of the Year 2016 award in Malaysia. As an (ISC)² OTP, Firmus will offer official (ISC)² CBK Training Seminars to security professionals looking to become certified. The first two certifications to be offered are the CCSP and SSCP. Globally acclaimed, (ISC)²’s credentials qualify cyber, information, software and infrastructure security professionals throughout their careers.
The CCSP credential is appropriate for professionals with deep-seated knowledge and competency derived from hands-on experience with information security and cloud computing. CCSPs help candidates achieve the highest standard for cloud security expertise and enable organizations to benefit from the power of cloud computing while keeping sensitive data secure. The SSCP is suitable for those pursuing technical skills and practical security knowledge for hands-on operational IT security roles. It provides industry-leading confirmation of a practitioner’s ability to implement, monitor and administer IT infrastructure in accordance with information security policies and procedures that ensure data confidentiality, integrity and availability.
“Cybersecurity has become the prime concern of thousands of enterprises worldwide. Cyber threats pose a real challenge in many developing nations, including Malaysia. Firmus Sdn. Bhd, one of the top cybersecurity providers in Malaysia, has been dedicated to raising the issue of cybersecurity threats and emphasizing the importance of proper methods to defend the public from cyberattacks.
