Certified Professional (CCP)
The UK needs more skilled people in the cyber security profession — now, and for the future. As a result, the UK’s national technical authority for information assurance (IA), the NCSC is playing a pivotal role in addressing the skills gap and building the UK’s cyber security capability.
The NCSC developed the Certified Professional (CCP) scheme in consultation with government, industry and academia to address the growing need for specialists in the cyber security profession. The CCP scheme sets the standard for UK cyber security professionals, and is at the heart of efforts to build a community of recognised professionals.
CCP is not just a qualification — it is a certification which is awarded to those who demonstrate their sustained ability to apply their skills, knowledge and expertise in real-world situations.
At CNS Group we have a wealth of Senior and Lead Practitioners that are CCP certified
