As students progress through the FC RMF – Fusion Cyber Risk Management Framework Professional Program (100% virtual, a performance-based certification), they also prepare for the Security+, CISA, CISSP, or CEH certifications. Students can earn up to two certificates within the FC RMF pathway, the world’s most complete hands-on cybersecurity workforce program. As a result, students get the skills they need to land a high-paying cybersecurity job and build a stable career. The FC RMF is academically aligned to the NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) and Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework, and includes browser-accessible Cyber Range instruction & labs providing hands-on experience using real-world cybersecurity tools & techniques, and multiple levels of job readiness from internships to mentorships, to networking opportunities to find that new career position.

EXAMPLE: SALARY POTENTIAL after successfully passing corresponding industry certification(s):

Fusion Cyber Risk Management Framework Professional (FC RMF) - Common Body of Practice

1. 1. Individuals may pass the Security+ as their first entry point into Cyber security when switching from another career.

   2. Cybersecurity professionals who take and pass ISACA’s Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) certification demonstrate that they know to advance in their careers through practice. CISA is world-renowned as the standard of achievement for those who audit, control, monitor, and assess an organization’s information technology and business systems.

   3. Cybersecurity professionals who take and pass the CISSP and demonstrate through practice that they have mastered the seven domains of the Common Body of Practice will earn the certification. In addition, candidates demonstrate a mastery of the FC RMF Common Body of Practice by satisfactorily producing all critical deliverables required for implementing the NIST RMF/Fed/RAMP.

The Common Body of Practice includes the following seven domains:

1. Categorize the information system and information processed, stored, & transmitted by that
2. Select an initial set of baseline security controls for the system based on the security
3. Implement selected security controls and describe how the controls are
4. Assess security controls using appropriate assessment procedures to determine how the controls are implemented correctly, operating as intended, and producing the desired outcomes for meeting the system’s security.
5. Authorize the information system operation based on determining the risk and the decision that this risk is
6. Monitor the security controls continuously in the information
7. Manage the risk exposure of on-premises systems by assessing the boundaries between on-premises and cloud-based

Cybersecurity professionals who take and pass EC-Council’s Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) will show that they’ve mastered the latest commercial-grade hacking tools, techniques, and methodologies hackers and information security professionals use to hack an organization lawfully.

Additional certificate or degree options may be added or replaced, as the market demands, such as graduate certificate(s) or doctorate and bachelor's degree completion. The University partner powered by Fusion Cyber certificates can be articulated into various degree programs. In a credit-bearing program, each FC RMF course is academically worth multiple credits (thirty to forty or more credits).

Target Market: The baseline Fusion Cyber Risk Management Framework (Security+, CISA, CISSP, or CEH) appeals to professionals already working within a comparable field of IT or risk management, or other similar professional roles and requires 2 to 3 years of professional work experience.

Fusion Cyber Cybersecurity Risk Management Framework (FC RMF) Curriculum and Deliverables:

The National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) Cybersecurity Workforce Framework (NICE Framework), published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in NIST Special Publication 800-181, is a nationally focused resource that establishes a taxonomy and common lexicon to describe cybersecurity work, and workers, regardless of where, or for whom, the work is performed.

The materials within The University partner powered by FC RMF bootcamps, programs, and courses focus on the Knowledge Skills and Abilities (KSAs) identified within the National Cybersecurity Workforce Framework specialty areas.

The FC RMF program uniquely combines top industry-recognized certifications into one pathway and 3^rd parties and self-help guides to enable students to pass their certification exams. Multiple cyber range badges are issued at every FC RMF level and some individual levels.

The Security+, CISA, CISSP, or CEH certifications embedded (after passing the certification body exam) within the FC RMF program also meet DoD Directive 8140, the successor to 8570 certification and compliance requirements.
