INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION SYSTEM SECURITY CERTIFICATION CONSORTIUM, INC

International Information System Security Certification Consortium, Inc. specializes in the administration and maintenance of globally recognized cybersecurity professional certifications, primarily supporting federal workforce compliance with industry-standard credentialing requirements. The contractor facilitates the ongoing validity of (ISC)² certifications through the procurement and distribution of Annual Maintenance Fee vouchers, ensuring personnel across defense and homeland security agencies maintain active, up-to-date certifications such as CISSP, CCSP, and SSCP. This enables agencies to meet NIST SP 800-53, DoD 8140/8570, and other federal workforce certification mandates. Their engagement in the ISC2 Security Congress further demonstrates support for professional development, knowledge sharing, and workforce readiness within the national security community. The contractor maintains a consistent relationship with the Department of Defense, where the majority of engagements center on sustaining certification compliance for cybersecurity personnel. A single award with the Department of Homeland Security reflects similar support for workforce credentialing through conference participation, indicating a pattern of enabling continuous professional growth aligned with federal cybersecurity workforce standards. Their primary operational focus is on Computer Training (NAICS 611420), which in practice involves credential lifecycle management rather than instructional delivery. The secondary NAICS classification, Professional Organizations (813920), aligns with event-based engagement to advance industry standards. The organization is positioned as a non-profit certification body serving federal cybersecurity workforce development, not as a traditional training vendor. Based in Alexandria, VA, the entity operates as a non-commercial professional association (Entity Structure 8H) with no government certifications listed. Its market role is unique: it serves as the administrative backbone for globally recognized cybersecurity certifications, enabling federal agencies to meet stringent workforce qualification requirements without delivering direct instruction or technical implementation services.
