GIAC Information Security Professional: Common Questions From Candidates

What is the GIAC Information Security Professional certification exam?

The GIAC Information Security Professional exam (code: GISP) is the official GIAC exam that leads to the GIAC Information Security Professional certification. It sits at the Professional level of the GIAC certification track. Passing it proves to employers that your skills have been validated by GIAC itself, which is why the GISP credential keeps showing up in job postings.

Can I try the GISP practice questions before buying?

Yes. Dumpkiller offers a free GISP PDF demo so you can review the question style, difficulty, and explanations before committing to anything. After purchase, your GIAC Information Security Professional material includes 365 days of free updates, and if your product expires after that, you can extend the update service at a 50% discount from your member zone.

What happens if I do not pass the GISP exam, and how is my order delivered?

If you take the corresponding GISP exam within 60 days of your purchase and do not pass, you can apply for a full refund under our 100% Money Back Guarantee, subject to a few conditions: the failed exam must be the one matching your purchase; sitting the exam within 3 days of purchase does not qualify, since that leaves too little preparation time; downloading the material without actually taking the exam does not qualify; free materials and expired orders are excluded; and the candidate name must match the payer name. To apply, send a scanned copy of your enrollment slip together with your official Score Report (PDF) within 2 days after the exam, and claims are processed within 7 days. If you would rather not take a refund, you can exchange your purchase for two free products of equal value while keeping the update service on the product you originally bought.
