ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity (CC) Full-Length Practice Test
One hundred and four questions in 120 minutes. Ten independent CC practice tests follow the exam outline effective September 1, 2026, with an estimated scaled practice score measured against ISC2’s 700-point passing standard.
- 104 questions / 120 min
- Estimated scaled score

The September 2026 CC outline is now the live exam
ISC2’s updated Certified in Cybersecurity outline took effect on September 1, 2026. It keeps five domains but changes their names, weights and coverage, including foundational AI security across the outline.
| Current outline | Effective September 1, 2026 |
| Delivery | Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) |
| Exam length | 100–125 items |
| Time limit | 2 hours |
| Item formats | Multiple choice and advanced item types |
| Passing standard | 700 out of 1000 points |
| Result report | Pass/fail; no numerical score reported |
| Languages | English, Chinese, Japanese, German, Spanish |
| Testing | Pearson VUE testing centers |
| Work experience | None required |
| Standard exam fee | US$199 |
Written to the current outline
These ten practice tests use the five domains that came into force on September 1: Security Principles, Security Governance, Identity and Access Management Concepts, Networking and Cloud Security Concepts, and Security Operations and Incident Response.
The 104-question form is deliberate. ISC2 publishes a 100–125 item range for the live exam, while these papers hold the count fixed so your results are comparable from one practice test to the next.
The live CC exam is adaptive. These practice tests are linear. They cover the same current content areas and the same two-hour time budget without claiming to reproduce ISC2’s adaptive item selection or stopping rules.
Two hours of foundational security decisions
CC is an entry-level exam, but that does not make every answer obvious. The harder questions come from separating two related ideas: authentication from authorization, continuity from recovery, or a useful control from one that solves the wrong problem.
How it’s built
- 104 questions in a 120-minute practice window
- 92 single-answer questions
- 12 Select TWO questions, scored all-or-nothing
- 42 easy, 44 medium and 18 hard questions
- No negative marking in the practice engine
- Same five-domain allocation across all ten tests
What the questions ask
- Short workplace scenarios at junior cybersecurity level
- Security principles, controls and risk decisions
- Governance, resilience and security awareness
- Identity lifecycle, least privilege and access control
- Network, cloud, operations and incident-response concepts
- Foundational AI security where the current outline includes it
What comes back
- Estimated scaled practice score
- 700 used as the readiness benchmark
- An explanation on every question
- Why the correct option fits the scenario
- Why the strongest alternative is still wrong
Every 104-question test follows the new five-domain blueprint
Security Principles is the largest domain at 24%. The fixed practice form converts ISC2’s published weights into a repeatable 25 / 18 / 21 / 22 / 18 question split.
| Current CC domain | ISC2 average weight | Questions per practice test |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Security Principles | 24% | 25 |
| 2. Security Governance | 17.3% | 18 |
| 3. Identity And Access Management (IAM) Concepts | 20% | 21 |
| 4. Networking and Cloud Security Concepts | 21.3% | 22 |
| 5. Security Operations and Incident Response | 17.3% | 18 |
