The 10 Security Domains

This practice brief outlines the 10 security knowledge domains that individuals with a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) credential must possess. The CISSP is offered through the International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium. The knowledge domains for the CISSP credential provide a foundation of security principles and practices in all industries, not just healthcare. It's important to note that the 10 security domains are different from what the HIPAA Security Rule requires. The HIPAA Security Rule was designed to be comprehensive, scalable and technology neutral so that healthcare organizations could meet compliance according to their size, type and need. The 10 security domains are more "best practices" in nature, are not healthcare specific, and explained throughout this practice brief.
