Kris Lamberth of Paranet™ Earns Prestigious Security Certification

May 7, 2009 - PRLog -- The CISSP certification is issued by the International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium, or ((ISC)². (ISC)² is a non-profit organization that educates and certifies information security professionals worldwide.

"The CISSP is the premiere professional certification for information security experts," said Erik Akopiantz, Paranet™. "We are very proud of Kris' accomplishment and this further illustrates our commitment to servicing the needs of our clients."

In order to earn the CISSP, Lamberth had to meet stringent professional requirements as well as successfully pass a comprehensive examination known for the breadth of topics it covers. To renew his certification, Lamberth must earn 120 continuing professional education credits every three years.

Certification establishes a standard of best practices for the enterprise. It offers a solutions-orientation, not specialization, based on the broader understanding of the (ISC)² CBK. Furthermore, certification allows access to a network of global industry and subject matter resources from leading security experts.

"Certification demonstrates a working knowledge of information security and confirms a commitment to the profession," added Akopiantz. "Employers demanding qualified information security staff give their organizations a leading edge by providing the highest standard of security for their customers', employees', stakeholders' and organizational information assets."
