Synopsis

Identity is the new security perimeter. This is the study guide that teaches it from first principles and prepares you to prove it.

The Identity and Access Management Exam Prep Guide is a complete, structured preparation guide for the CIDPRO™ certification from IDPro ( https://idpro.org/cidpro/ ), the leading vendor-neutral credential for identity professionals. All 22 chapters map one-to-one to the 22 exam sub-objectives across the five CIDPRO™ exam objectives, so you always know exactly where you stand against the blueprint.

What you will master

• Identity architecture, the digital identity lifecycle, identity proofing and assurance levels, aligned to NIST SP 800-63-4
• Authentication, authorisation, cryptography and access management, built up from first principles
• Passwordless, phishing-resistant authentication: FIDO2, WebAuthn and passkeys
• The protocols that make identity interoperable: OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SAML, SCIM and LDAP
• Non-human identity governance and agentic AI, the emerging frontier of identity security
• Privileged access, threat modelling and the attacks that target identity, from credential stuffing to Golden Ticket
• The regulations that shape identity design: GDPR, Singapore PDPA, the Australian Privacy Act, HIPAA, PCI DSS and the EU AI Act

Learn from real cases, not just theory

Case studies make the concepts concrete, including national identity systems such as India's Aadhaar, Singapore's Singpass and Malaysia's MyKad, Singapore's SGFinDex open banking platform, and breach post-mortems such as Snowflake.

Practise like it is the real exam

Two full mock exams, 150 questions in CIDPRO™ exam format, with answer keys so you can find your weak areas before exam day.
