Practicing CISSPs help you prepare and stay on track until the exam day

CISSP by ISC2 is often called the gold standard of cybersecurity certifications. The exam is difficult not because it is “tricky”, but because it is broad and tests how you connect technology, risk, process, and business priorities.

This service is not “just lectures”. It is a guided path to the exam.

Focus. Domain-based learning, exam thinking, practice questions, and accountability.

FAQ

Can I take the exam if I have less than 5 years of experience?

Yes. You can pass the exam first and complete the experience requirement later.

How important is English?

Very. CISSP depends on nuances. We teach a practical approach to “exam reading” and terminology.

How many hours per week do I need?

Typically 8–12 hours/week. Faster is possible but often breaks discipline. We build a pace you can sustain.

Do you guarantee a pass?

If you purchased and completed our training and coaching, and also attended the exam and failed, we will refund 100% of your coaching fees. However, it's your career, your mind, your knowledge, and your responsibility. If you execute the plan, the probability increases significantly. If you don’t follow through, no course, no book, no shamanic drum will help.

Is CISSP “management-only”?

No. It is a balance. We teach you how to connect technical controls to risk and business priorities.

I am preparing on my own. Why do I need coaching?

To stop guessing “am I ready”. To close gaps faster. To avoid losing an attempt due to tactics and lack of structure.

How does H-X practice work?

We select the most suitable candidates and assign them paid and unpaid tasks. Internships at H-X can be counted as relevant experience for the CISSP if your tasks meet the CISSP domains and ISC2's experience recognition requirements. We help you create a portfolio of tasks and prepare proof of experience for endorsement. The final decision on experience recognition is made by ISC2.
