You can sit the CISSP exam and get the "Associate of ISC2" designation without the required experience. People saying the get the full credential without experience aren't telling the full truth.

For CISM, you can sit for the exam but you won’t be certify until you have the experience.

The full CISSP cert require just 5 years experience in 2 of the 8 domains. That’s a wide range of experience. Being a security guard counts as experience

funny

CISM cert requires demonstrable 5yrs (can use some subs like CISA and CISSP to knock if some yrs)

You can get it with 4 years experience + a relevant 4-year degree (anything IT). Or just 5 years experience straight up.
