To qualify for the Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) certification, candidates must meet the following requirements:
Minimum: 4 years of cumulative, paid full-time work experience in at least one of the 8 CSSLP domains (as defined by the (ISC)² Common Body of Knowledge - CBK).
The experience must be directly related to the software development lifecycle and security practices.
A one-year waiver is granted if you hold a 4-year college degree (Bachelor’s or equivalent) in computer science, information security, or a related field.
This reduces the requirement to 3 years of relevant experience.
You can still take the CSSLP exam!
If you pass the exam but lack the required experience, you will become an Associate of (ISC)².
You'll then have up to 5 years to gain the required work experience and become fully certified.
