Reviews

Working as an Information Security Manager, I enrolled in the CISM Certification training. I am now able to take a comprehensive view of information systems security management and their relationship to materialise it to organizational success

Kiran RaghavanSenior Business Analyst

Ensuring that there is improved alignment between the organization's information security program and its broader goals and objectives I had been newly appointed as an Information Security Manager. Thus I decided to increase my skills and joined Vinsys’ CISM Certification Training Program. The program has really helped me and I was able to get my certification easily.

Prosanto DasEstimator

I have cleared the CISM exam on the first attempt. The enrollment process to scheduling training with Vinsys was smooth and thank you Raghav for the same. I would like to thank Vinsys and Trainer for providing impeccable training. His vast experience has certainly provided a platform to understand CISM from a managerial perspective. Trainer guidance is invaluable in this regard.

Sonu ValayilAVP Barclays

Overall, I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the efforts put in by Mr. Devendra Singh and the entire team at Vinsys. The CISM course was undoubtedly one of the best investments that I have made, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in furthering their knowledge in the field of information security.
