The CISA exam is the official ISACA exam behind the Certified Information Systems Auditor certification, validating the skills measured by the ISACA Certified Information Systems Auditor credential. It sits at the Professional level of the ISACA certification program. It also connects to CISM, CRISC, CGEIT, CDPSE, so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.

The CISA exam contains 150 questions to be completed within 240 minutes. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the Exam4PDF test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.

The passing score for the CISA exam is 450 (scaled 200–800), and the official registration fee is US$575 (member) / US$760 (non-member). Retakes are not discounted — every new attempt means paying the full fee again — so it pays to measure yourself before you book. Work through the 1605 practice questions on Exam4PDF, sit a timed practice test, and schedule your exam only when your scores are consistently comfortable. That simple habit is the cheapest exam strategy there is.

No mandatory prerequisite exams; requires 5 years of professional experience in information systems auditing, control, or security (with allowed substitutions up to 3 years) to obtain certification after passing Requirements can change when ISACA revises its certification program, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official exam page before you register.
