Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Forcisos training programs, modules, and membership.

About the Program

What is Forcisos?

Forcisos is the practitioner's MBA for security leadership. We offer a four-level, modular training program that teaches CISOs how to actually do the job. Built by working CISOs, and designed for the real challenges of security leadership.

How is Forcisos different from CISSP, CISM, or CCISO?

Those certifications test knowledge through memorization-based exams. Forcisos teaches leadership capability: how to fight for budget, manage boards, build teams, navigate politics, and lead through crises. We're not competing with knowledge certifications — we're building the leadership layer on top of them.

Who validates the curriculum?

Forcisos is validated through a partnership with the our practitioner network. The curriculum is practitioner-built and industry-validated, giving you practical credibility that employers and boards recognize.

What are the four certification levels?

Level 1: Associate CISO — for aspiring CISOs and career changers. Level 2: CISO — for current CISOs in their first 5 years. Level 3: Principal CISO — for Fortune 500 and global CISOs with 7+ years experience. Level 4: Mythos CSO — the world’s first AI-era security credential, for visionary leaders shaping the future through AI governance, quantum risk, and converged security. Each level has its own set of standalone modules.

Modules & Pricing

Do I have to buy all modules in a level?

No. Every module stands completely alone. Buy exactly what you need, when you need it. There are no forced bundles or prerequisite chains within a level. Each module has its own context, glossary, and assessment.

How much do modules cost?

Level 1 modules range from $99-$299, Level 2 from $149-$349, and Level 3 from $199-$449, and Level 4 from $299-$599. Price varies by delivery format (self-paced online, live virtual, or in-person). Full week intensives are approximately $5,000.

What delivery formats are available?

Self-Paced Online (learn at your own pace with AI tutoring), Live Virtual (scheduled cohorts with an instructor), In-Person (hands-on workshops in European cities), and Full Week Intensives (immersive 4-day programs).

Membership

What does the annual membership include?

For $399/year you get: 15% discount on all module purchases, priority access to new releases, CISO Community access (private network), monthly exclusive newsletter, early-bird notifications for live sessions, and member-only events. It pays for itself after 3-4 module purchases.

Do I need a membership to buy modules?

No. Membership is optional. You can buy any module individually without a membership. The membership simply gives you discounts, community access, and priority features.

Enterprise & Teams

Do you offer enterprise packages?

Yes. We offer custom cohort deals for organizations training multiple security leaders. This includes custom scheduling, dedicated instructors, tailored curriculum, and volume discounts for 10-30+ seats. Contact us for pricing.

Can we customize the curriculum for our organization?

Absolutely. Enterprise clients can mix and match modules across levels, add industry-specific verticals (finance, healthcare, government, etc.), and tailor content to their organization's specific challenges and regulatory environment.
