Certification: Certified Counter-Insider Threat Professional - Fundamentals (CCITP-F)

The CCITP-F measures and assesses whether an individual has the requisite knowledge and skills annotated in the CCITP-Essential Body of Knowledge to perform the tasks outlined in the CCITP-Essential Body of Work. The CCITP-F was designed with a target population of those personnel working directly in a C-InT program; however, because each program is unique with different needs and constraints, the CCITP-F is open to anyone who works within or is affiliated with a C-InT Program, as determined by each organization's Program Manager.
