CCSP practice exams

Opens next. The first practice exam opens at 100 verified questions, spread across all 6 domains.
Every question here is checked against the official page it cites before it serves, which is why the count grows slowly.
Where to focus: Cloud Data Security is the heaviest domain at 20 percent, but the other five sit between 13 and 17 percent, so the CCSP spreads its questions widely and a weak domain is hard to hide. The exam outline that took effect on August 1, 2026 is the one being tested now, so check the effective date on any study material you buy. If you already hold an active CISSP, ISC2 substitutes it for the entire CCSP experience requirement, which leaves the exam as the only step.
What the exam actually asks you to do
Multiple choice and ISC2's advanced item types. There is no lab and no simulation, so the practice that matters is reading a scenario and choosing well.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the CCSP exam cost?
ISC2 lists standard registration for the CCSP exam at U.S. $599 in the Americas, Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa, EUR 575.04 in EMEA, and GBP 485.19 in the United Kingdom. ISC2 notes that pricing and taxes are based on the location of exam administration.
What experience does ISC2 require for the CCSP?
Five years of cumulative, full-time IT experience, of which three years must be in cybersecurity and one year in one or more of the six CCSP domains. A relevant post-secondary degree or CSA's CCSK certificate can each substitute for one year, and only one year can be waived. An active CISSP substitutes for the entire CCSP experience requirement.
Can I take the exam before I have five years of experience?
Yes. ISC2 says a candidate without the required experience may become an Associate of ISC2 by passing the CCSP exam, and then has six years to earn the five years of required experience.
What does it take to keep the CCSP active?
CCSP holders earn 90 CPE credits over the three year certification cycle, 60 of them Group A, and pay an annual maintenance fee of U.S. $135. Members pay a single AMF no matter how many ISC2 certifications they hold.
