All BSG consultants have at least a bachelor’s degree in cybersecurity, computer science, or a related field. Then, CISSP and CISA are the most relevant for the consulting work of all the prestigious certifications our security experts hold. Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) provides a broad and profound understanding of organizational processes and security controls. Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) enables our audit quality and brings IT audit standards and guidelines to our work.
