ISAUnited Certified Professional Licensing (CPL) Stamp
Achieve the Prestige of Cybersecurity Engineering, Enterprise Security Architecture, or Security by Design Professional.
Our pioneering professional licensing program responds to the growing demand for experts who can design, implement, and manage advanced cybersecurity frameworks. By earning an ISAUnited license, you position yourself among an elite group of professionals committed to securing the future of enterprise systems.
Recognizing Elite Cybersecurity Professionals with the ISAUnited CPL Stamp
The ISAUnited Certified Professional Licensing (CPL) Stamp represents the gold standard of cybersecurity professionalism, mirroring the Professional Engineer (PE) stamp used in traditional engineering fields.
Unlike certifications, which serve as a foundational entry point, the CPL License validates proven expertise, real-world technical experience, and professional accountability. This ensures that only the most competent, qualified, and rigorously evaluated professionals are entrusted with securing critical infrastructure, enterprise environments, and national security assets.
The Certified Professional Licensing (CPL) Stamp is ISAUnited’s official seal of recognition for cybersecurity professionals who meet our stringent licensing requirements:
​
-
CPCA – Certified Professional Cybersecurity Architect
-
CPCE – Certified Professional Cybersecurity Engineer
-
CSbDP – Certified Security by Design Professional
Each CPL licensee is held to a higher standard—demonstrating technical mastery and a duty to protect public health, safety, and welfare through secure architecture and engineering principles.
​
Today, anyone can claim to be a cybersecurity architect or engineer—without proof of competency. The ISAUnited CPL Stamp corrects this gap, ensuring that professionals designing and securing critical systems are as trusted and qualified as their civil, mechanical, or electrical engineering counterparts.
This industry-recognized digital stamp signifies the following:
✔ Mastery of complex cybersecurity architecture & engineering principles
✔ A deep commitment to security by design and risk mitigation
✔ Accountability in protecting critical infrastructure and digital assets
✔ A mark of trust that enterprises and governments can rely on

Why is CPL Not a Certification?
The ISAUnited Certified Professional License (CPL) is not another certification.

By limiting the number of licenses issued annually, ISAUnited ensures that its holders represent the pinnacle of cybersecurity expertise, bridging the gap between engineering disciplines and modern cybersecurity needs.
