The ISC2 Code of Ethics establishes the ethical obligations and professional standards that all ISC2 certified members (including CISSP, CC, etc.) must uphold. Its primary purpose is to hold members to the highest ethical standards in the practice of information security. The four canons of the Code of Ethics prioritize: protecting society and infrastructure, acting honorably and legally, providing diligent service, and advancing the profession. While the code touches on harm prevention and conflict guidance, its overarching goal is ensuring members maintain the highest standards of ethical conduct.
