of Hiring Managers Identify Risk Management as Most In-Demand
According to a 2024 ISC2 survey of IT security managers, 27% of hiring managers identify risk assessment, analysis, and management as among the most in-demand skills in the field.
Most cybersecurity professionals understand security controls. But understanding controls isn't the same as managing risk.
CRISC bridges that gap. It proves you can identify which risks actually threaten your organization's objectives, assess whether your controls address those risks, and communicate risk in terms that executives understand and can act on.
While other certifications focus on implementing security, CRISC focuses on the strategic decisions that determine which security matters most. It's built for professionals who need to evaluate risk across the enterprise, not just secure individual systems.
With CRISC, you’ll:
If you want to move from implementing security to managing risk strategy, CRISC certification gets you there.
And that's exactly where our CRISC Bootcamp comes in: teaching you everything you need to earn your certification in just 4 days and lead risk management in your organization.

Your CRISC Implementation Toolkit: Practical Resources for Day-One Impact
Beyond passing the exam: tools you'll use immediately to lead risk initiatives
CRISC certification proves you understand risk management. But the day after you pass, your organization still expects you to make risk decisions with confidence. These four tools bridge that gap. They turn your certification knowledge into practical resources you'll use for every risk assessment, vendor evaluation, and management presentation.
Risk Register Template
The Problem: Every security or compliance program needs a risk register, but starting one from scratch is painful. Your team gets stuck debating formats, fields, and frameworks instead of actually assessing risk.
How It Helps: This template gives you a clean, intuitive structure for capturing threats, scoring impact, and tracking mitigation plans, all in one place. No more reinventing the wheel every time you need to document risk.
Real Impact: You bring order to chaos. You standardize risk reporting across your organization so leadership can actually compare risks instead of sorting through inconsistent spreadsheets. You get your team aligned around what truly matters instead of wasting time on documentation debates.
Risk Management Plan (Guided Template)
The Problem: Leadership asks for a Risk Management Plan, and you know it's critical. But writing one takes hours of researching best practices, wrestling with structure, and making sure nothing critical gets overlooked.
How It Helps: This guided template walks you step-by-step through defining scope, identifying risks, assigning owners, and outlining response strategies. Each section includes prompts that make sure you're addressing everything auditors and executives expect to see.
Real Impact: You get a polished, board-ready plan that demonstrates maturity and satisfies auditors. More importantly, you set your team up for proactive risk management instead of constantly reacting to incidents.
Step-by-Step RMF Checklist
The Problem: The Risk Management Framework is powerful, but only if you can actually navigate it. Too often it turns into a maze of confusing requirements and missed steps that derail entire projects.
How It Helps: This checklist breaks RMF into a simple, repeatable sequence you can follow every time. It highlights what to prepare, what to validate, and what to document at each phase so you can stay compliant without drowning in bureaucracy.
Real Impact: Whether you're experienced or brand new to RMF, this turns complexity into clarity. You stop missing steps that create compliance gaps. You can confidently guide projects through the framework and explain your process when auditors come asking.
Quick Guide to Running Agile Projects
The Problem: Agile sounds simple until you try to implement it. Then suddenly you're juggling ceremonies, roles, backlogs, and stakeholder expectations with no clear playbook.
How It Helps: This quick guide distills Agile down to the practical actions that actually make teams faster and more effective. You get clear guidance on running standups, managing backlogs, and coordinating with stakeholders without drowning in Agile theory.
Real Impact: Perfect for teams adopting Agile for the first time or for leaders who want consistent, repeatable execution. You stop arguing about process and start delivering results.

Understanding CRISC Challenges
Based on our experience training thousands of professionals for advanced cybersecurity certifications, we know that CRISC introduces unique challenges that traditional security training doesn't address. The exam doesn't test if you can implement security controls. It tests if you can make risk-based decisions about which controls matter most, communicate those risks to executives, and manage risk across your entire enterprise. Our program addresses these challenges directly:

Destination Certification (DestCert) is an organization dedicated to providing top-tier training and preparation for cybersecurity certifications, with expertise in CISSP, CCSP, CISM, Security+, Network+, AAISM, and now CRISC. We offer bootcamps that provide an immersive, instructor-led experience that helps you absorb and apply complex cybersecurity concepts with confidence, so you're ready for both the exam and real-world implementation.
Our commitment is to make the toughest cybersecurity certifications approachable and achievable. We focus on teaching concepts through practical, real-world examples, so students don’t just memorize answers—they truly understand the material. This approach ensures our students pass comfortably on their first attempt while also gaining skills they can immediately apply on the job. Our goal isn’t just to help you pass but to make you a confident, capable professional who can translate knowledge into action and advance your security career.
We track pass rates differently depending on the level of student engagement with our program.
For students in our Preferred and Premier MasterClasses, we have nearly 100% accurate pass rate data because these students work directly with our instructors throughout their preparation. We know exactly when they sit for the exam and whether they pass on their first attempt. These students have a 93.6% first-time pass rate.
For students in our Essential MasterClasses and bootcamps, pass rate data is based on voluntary self-reporting. While we actively collect this information and the results are directionally consistent with our Preferred and Premier students, we can't guarantee the same level of accuracy since not all students report back after taking their exam.
The consistent pattern we see across all our programs: the vast majority of students who follow our complete preparation system pass on their first attempt, regardless of which certification they're pursuing.
The few students who don't pass on their first attempt almost always pass on their second attempt.

CCSP Masterclass – What a masterpiece! Well done on this incredible work. In addition, the strategy worked out! Thinking like a CEO made all the difference to me in passing the exam. HUGE THANK YOU!
Minesh
Destination Cert's engaging presenters and high-quality content truly made preparing for the CISSP exam an amazing experience. Thanks to their comprehensive approach, I felt confident and successfully passed the exam!
Sean
The Destination Certification team is fantastic! The material is well structured, engaging, and reassured me that the focus is on value. I found the way the service helped me focus on the weaker areas of my knowledge was a game changer in terms of effort/reward.
Joe
I used DestCert to prepare for CISSP. The material was well-structured and engaging. Mindmaps helped me understand how different topics fit together. The personalized review helped me target my weaker areas of knowledge, making my study efficient. DestCert is a valuable resource in my exam preparation.
Devin
Earning the CISSP felt like a daunting, almost impossible challenge. But I watched all the videos, read the book, reviewed flashcards and grew confident enough to sit it after three months. Though it is a really hard exam, the material was accurate and enough for me to pass at 100 questions on my first attempt. I highly recommend DestCert to anyone preparing for these exams.
Daniel
Preparing for and taking the CISSP exam can feel like a daunting task. DestCert's CISSP MasterClass helps plan out everything for you, and leads you through each of the many topics with engaging video content. I used their MasterClass (as well as Quantum Exams) to prepare for the exam and I passed the first time at 100 questions! I would 100% recommend DestCert in future to anyone looking to pass the CISSP exam. Their first time pass rate speaks for itself!
Zeke
The CISSP was a beast and I had failed before. There was so much information coming from so many sources and I could never feel comfortable to attempt it again. I went through the MasterClass at Destination Certification and everything was explained so well and the course was intentional with how and what order they taught information. I bought in and followed it and I ended up passing at 100 questions and honestly felt over prepared! DC was awesome and the one stop shop that I needed for everything!! Lou, Rob, and John were great and I can't thank them enough! Looking at going for CCSP soon!!
