What we’re about
Welcome to the DC, MD, VA CISSP Meetup Group — A Community for Cybersecurity Professionals and Learners
Cybersecurity is more critical than ever in 2025. Whether you’re just beginning your journey or are a seasoned expert, this group is your space to learn, grow, and connect with others who are passionate about protecting information and systems.
We focus on the ISC2 Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) certification, a globally recognized benchmark for leadership and technical expertise in cybersecurity. We also welcome those pursuing or holding other ISC2 certifications, such as CGRC, SSCP, CC, and CCSP.
This group is for:
- Aspiring CISSPs and cybersecurity professionals
- Current CISSPs seeking CPEs and continued growth
- Those exploring careers in cybersecurity
- Educators, mentors, and advocates for secure systems
Now with a new organizer, we’re rebooting the group with fresh energy.
Look forward to:
- Community advice, inspiration, and discussions
- CISSP Study Groups
- Guest speakers
- CPE-eligible workshops and trainings
- Networking events and mixers
- Information on books, study guides, and resources
- Online and in-person meetups
