ü Is able to attest to test taker professional experience

ü Is an active (ISC)2 credential holder in good standing.

This will proof that the test taker indeed has the type of experience required to obtain this certification.

The endorser/sponsor must sign the test taker endorsement document vouching for the security experience the test taker is submitting.
