The CSSLP aims to stem the proliferation of security vulnerabilities resulting from insufficient development processes by establishing best practices and validating an individual’s competency in addressing security issues throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC). (ISC)2’s newest credential, the CSSLP is the only certification in the market aimed at ensuring security is built in throughout the SDLC. The goal of the official textbook is to fully educate readers by detailing the security requirements that should be incorporated throughout the SDLC.

The “Official (ISC)2 Guide to the CSSLP” was authored by Mano Paul, CISSP, CSSLP, MCAD, Network+, ECSA, software assurance advisor for (ISC)2 and CEO and president of Express Certification, a professional training and certification company. The materials were vetted by CSSLPs from around the world prior to being endorsed by (ISC)2. The Guide is available online from the (ISC)2 Store for a suggested retail price of US$79.95.
