SYNOPSIS
TruSecure’s TICSA certification is “designed for
computer network and IT security practitioners who desire to improve their
security practitioner expertise, as well as position themselves as demonstrated
and knowledgeable information security professionals.” The TICSA, which stands
for TruSecure ICSA Certified Security Associate, was introduced in March 2002
and is a vendor/training-neutral certification that is worth achieving on route
to more advanced security-related certifications such as (ISC)2’s CISSP. There
is no specific prerequisite for this certification; however, normally "candidates
will have two or more years in information security and IT experience, and are
responsible for their organizations' primary systems and networks."
"TICSA
certifications are valid for two years. Re-certification will require a renewal
fee and you will need to provide evidence of continuing education (48 hours
within a 24 month period of approved educational or conference attendance, or
evidence of equivalent), and a reaffirmation of the previously agreed to Code
of Ethics statement. Should any major changes be made in the certification
criteria of an already held certification, retesting or update testing may be
required. Watch the TruSecure web site
for updated information."
This
certification is well suited to IT personnel, with titles such as computer
administrators, network administrators, audit personnel, and other IT-oriented
professionals, who want to learn foundation-level security knowledge. The TICSA
designation is achieved by passing one exam.
