About the Certified Cyber Intelligence Professional (CCIP) program

The Certified Cyber Intelligence Professional (CCIP) is a board-certified credential issued by McAfee Institute. Like every McAfee Institute program, it pairs a structured, self-paced curriculum with a proctored board examination, so the credential reflects demonstrated competence rather than attendance alone. Candidates work through the coursework on their own schedule, sit the board exam when ready, and maintain the credential over time. Enrollment is open to practitioners and to career changers who meet the program's eligibility criteria.

Enrollees in this program typically come from law enforcement, federal and state investigative agencies, corporate security, loss prevention, fraud and financial crime units, intelligence teams, the military, and adjacent private-sector investigative roles. The reviews below are written by people who held a confirmed enrollment record for this specific program, which is what the gold verified enrollment badge indicates: a matching order in McAfee Institute's system, not a self-declaration.

The average shown above is a plain arithmetic mean of every published review of this program, rounded to one decimal place, with no weighting and no exclusions. The distribution chart reports all five rating levels, including one- and two-star reviews. Reviews are listed newest first and are never reordered or filtered by rating.

I'm still working on this but it seems great. My only thing is I wish that when we took the quizzes, it would give explanations for when the answer is "false" as it would assist greatly in learning the material and studying for the final.

I would recommend this certification. The certification helps me to understand cyber intelligence and cell phone issues when it comes to understanding the appropriate data to look for and to retrieve. Also the entire course concerning cyber intelligence did give me valuable insight concerning intelligence in the cyber world. I would highly recommend this course.

It was a good overall all experience. Classes were easy to navigate and complete. If I had to make 1 opportunity call out is that some of the courses are a bit dated but they are still relavent.

Overall good course! Good material and videos appart from some double content. Some room for improvement to bring it to 5 star level: 1) add other industries next to the retail examples, (e.g. finance and government) and 2) add more cyber threat intelligence. Currently the "intelligence" has more the character of "investigation".

Loved the course in general. Loved the fact that repetitions of certain concepts and topics were introduced. The Manual that had to be read throughout the course was nicely split across the various modules and was not overwhelming. Joshua's presentations were very engaging and kept my attention. I wish there were more practical exercises just like in the beginning with the auction sites. Some of the links in the support materials were broken or outdated

This was a really helpful course. While some of the material will be a refresher for those with experience in intelligence or in traditional cyber/IT fields, the content was very thorough and helpful. What I loved most about the course was the actual hands-on exercise in looking for auction fraud, and the great detail provided on preservation of computer evidence for prosecution. Top-notch training. Highly recommended

Thank you Joshua and team on being supportive. They also made it feasible to take the exam with my tight budget. I love the way they setup the way your are taught. They have PDF files and Videos, where they show you hands on. I love cyber security, but Joshua made it better by being honest that if I need his help he would be there and he was. I just wanted to thank everyone in Mcfee Institute for trying to keep us up to date with learning as technology evolves. Thank you!
