CIPT — Certified Information Privacy Technologist
IAPP's technology-focused privacy certification bridging the gap between legal privacy requirements and technical implementation. Covers Privacy by Design, anonymization, pseudonymization, privacy-enhancing technologies, and how to embed privacy controls into systems and processes. Not DoD 8140 approved. The most relevant IAPP certification for security engineers, developers, and architects who need to implement privacy requirements technically rather than just understand them legally. The technical focus differentiates CIPT from CIPM (management) and CIPP (law) — together these three cover the full privacy professional competency framework.
