CRISC is the only certification that prepares and enables IT professionals for the unique challenges of IT and enterprise risk management, and positions them to become strategic partners to the enterprise

QA is proud to be an official ISACA partner. The official Certified Risk Information Systems Control (CRISC) certification is a powerful manifestation of proficiency and expertise regarding various areas of risk. As well as this, CRISC demonstrates a commitment to IT security operations and enterprises, and a willingness to deliver quality within their profession. CRISC has been established as one of the most desirable and preferable IT security certifications worldwide.

The CRISC designation is designed for IT risk, control and compliance practitioners, business analysts, project managers and other resected professionals. The highly respected certification demonstrates to employers that the holder is able to identify and evaluate IT risk, and help their enterprise accomplish its business objectives. CRISC has received over 15 global recognitions.

Professional experience within risk management/control for a minimum of 3 years is required for CRISC certification. You should have taken the QACRISC training and be familiar with the CRISC job practice domains before taking the exam.

Types of risk may vary, but with its key role as an agent of innovation, technology has become the most critical risk factor for today’s enterprises.
