Accelerate Your Career In Quantum Security
Certified Quantum Security Professional (CQSP)
As organizations strengthen their defenses with Al-driven cybersecurity, a new challenge is taking shape. The cryptographic algorithms that protect digital systems today like RSA and ECC are expected to face vulnerabilities as quantum computing advances. Attackers are already adopting Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL)' tactics, capturing encrypted data today to decrypt it once quantum capabilities mature.
To help the industry prepare for this paradigm shift, SISA's Certified Quantum Security Professional (CQSP), the world's first ANAB-accredited certification in Quantum Security equips professionals with the knowledge to secure systems against emerging quantum threats. This program provides practical training on quantum-safe cryptography, risk assessment, and alignment with global standards such as NIST, ISO, and ETSI, enabling participants to lead their organization's quantum readiness with confidence.

Hear what our customers say
Thank you for teaching us about everything specially on every process and technical prospective, the best approach which very understandable to us and make it simple and easy. This greatly help journey for PCI DSS certification. Great appreciated for having us as your student on this workshop. and More power!
Mark Sechang
Infrastructure Security Analyst, Bayad Center
Instructor is very knowledgeable and passionate about the topic. There is a lot of information subject of the course and the instructor is very knowledgeable. Topics are highly technical and the instructor provided explanations for better understanding of the group particularly those not from IT.
Peggy Salazar
Manager, Data Protection, Philippine Airlines
Had a fantastic experience while attended the sessions and all the things were covered. Before attending the training I was not having any idea of PCI DSS. After completing this session got the amazing confidence in this domain so I would recommend anyone if you are looking something that can help with PCI CPISI knowledge just go for it without any doubt.
Anuj Kumar
Information Security Engineer II, NCR Voyix
The CPISI - Payment Data Security Implementation Online Workshop was a fantastic experience to learn about PCI DSS compliance. I learned a lot of useful information and could definitely apply what I learned here to help my organization be more compliant with the new PCI DSS 4.0 requirments. This was a really excellent training I would recommend to everyone who wants to know specific information about the requirements for PCI compliance.
Jacob Young
SW Engineer II, NCR Voyix
The workshop educates on PCI DSS implementation policies, reducing data breach, risk, maintaining compliance status for the organization, etc. by using real-world examples and case studies from SISA’s PCI forensic investigations. Experienced trainers deliver the instruction, ensuring quality and confidence in the quality of the learning experience. I have gained more knowledge from the workshop, which is helpful and fulfills my current job performance at APD Bank.
Vanna Mam
SW Engineer II, APD Bank
SISA’s CPISI-Payment Data Security Implementation Live Online Workshop wasn’t just informative, it was actionable. The instructors, veterans of both PCI compliance and real-world breach investigations, didn’t just explain the standards, they showed us how to implement them effectively in our own environments. The blend of lectures, case studies, and interactive exercises kept me engaged and learning throughout the two days. I especially appreciated the focus on understanding the “why” behind the controls, not just the “what.” This deeper knowledge has already helped me make smarter security decisions back at my company. If you’re serious about securing your payment data and achieving PCI compliance, skip the generic webinars and sign up for this workshop. It’s an investment that will pay off in stronger defenses and peace of mind.
Lasitha Bandara
Associate Information Security Engineer, TechCERT
The PCI DSS training improved my understanding of PCI DSS v4.0 and practical compliance. Real-world case studies and the trainer’s expertise were key highlights. This learning will directly support secure payment data handling and compliance in my role.
