What makes the ISSAP hard
ISSAP is the CISSP’s architecture concentration: the same ISC2 style, one level deeper, taken by people who already passed one of the hardest best-answer exams in security and still find this one slippery.
Every question is a design decision under constraints: which architecture pattern satisfies a governance requirement, IAM architecture across federations and hybrid estates, cryptographic architecture choices and their lifecycle, and infrastructure security design where three answers work and only one aligns with the stated risk appetite. The CISSP teaches the concepts; the ISSAP tests whether a candidate can arrange them.
The exam is heavily weighted toward infrastructure: infrastructure and system security is 32% on its own, and IAM architecture another 25%, together well over half the paper. This pack has 237 practice questions for the ISSAP.
About the exam
CISSP-ISSAP certifies security architecture expertise as a CISSP concentration: governance aligned architecture, security architecture modelling, infrastructure and system security, and identity and access management architecture. It requires a CISSP in good standing plus 2 years of architecture experience, or seven years of cumulative experience across two or more domains, and is maintained under the CISSP CPE cycle.
Exam domains
- Governance, risk and compliance: 21%
- Security architecture modeling: 22%
- Infrastructure and system security: 32%
- Identity and access management architecture: 25%
