  • (16–11-2022) Information Security Management Expert (ISMES) English: The exam is aligned with the latest versions of ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002.

  • (01-07-2022) All: The EXIN Information Security modules will be updated in the second half of 2022. Your certificate will have the same value, whether you earn it now or later this year. There are no contradictions between ISO/IEC 27002:2022 and the current exam. This is because the EXIN exams test a candidate’s understanding of how to protect information, not purely their knowledge of the ISO standard. ISO/IEC 27002 just provides us with a globally accepted structure. The main changes in the ISO/IEC 27002:2022 concern the order of the subjects. The structure has been simplified and actually aligns better with the structure of the EXIN exams. There are some additional subjects in ISO/IEC 27002, in line with developments since 2013, e.g. threat intelligence, security in cloud services and data masking. When the exam is updated, some of these topics might be covered. No subjects will be removed.
