Member Count in ISC2 Website

 

Hello,

 

I would like to know the criterion behind the member count - country wide list  for a particular credential (e.g CISSP )in the ISC2 website.

 

Can someone help me ?  Is it based on the credential holder residential address or exam taken location or credential holder working location or anything else?

 

Is there any directory service available to see the complete list of the credential holders in a particular region rather searching by certificate Id?

 

Thank you.

As you read up on GDPR, contemplate the legal hoops (ISC)² would need to navigate to maintain a complete public member list. 

 

You gave (ISC)² your address (on your profile) to mail your certificate.  I would bet that they use that address for the member counts.

@iluom Thank you for your inquiry. @denbesten is correct; the totals are pulled using the primary postal address on members profiles and we do not have a public member directory. You can find the member count by certification and country here.

Great, thanks!  According to my math then, approx 8800 new CISSP members were added in the past 12 months!  (Be warned, I'm a soon to be CISSP, not a mathematician).
