Audience

WHO THE CCP-CRE IS FOR

CCP-CRE is the practitioner-level credential for the people actively securing commercial real estate — building technology staff, IT practitioners managing OT environments, and security professionals with 2 to 3 years of relevant experience. It is the most operationally specific cybersecurity credential available for CRE.

⚙️
IT and OT Security Practitioners

Engineers and analysts managing network segmentation, EDR, identity and access management, and log monitoring across CRE portfolios. CCP-CRE validates your CRE-specific depth.

🏗️
Building Technology Managers

BAS integrators, facilities technology leads, and OT security specialists. CCP-CRE covers BACnet, Niagara Framework, vendor remote access, and the physical-cyber attack surface unique to commercial buildings.

🔐
Security Managers Moving into CRE

Practitioners with general IT security backgrounds entering the commercial real estate sector. CCP-CRE provides the CRE-specific context, terminology, and operational knowledge that general certifications don't cover.

The CCP-CRE exam is written from the Common Body of Knowledge v1.0. OT/BAS Security is the highest-weighted domain — 16 questions — reflecting its centrality to CRE cyber risk. Every question tests applied knowledge, not memorization.
