Overview
What is PECB LAIRM?
The PECB Certified Lead AI Risk Manager certifies holders to build and operate an AI risk management program based on NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act, and MIT AI Risk Repository. The five-day training covers identification, assessment, treatment, and monitoring of AI-specific risks and awards 31 CPD credits. The exam is scenario-based with a 70 percent passing score. Unlike the ISO standard schemes, LAIRM is a PECB-owned scheme that integrates multiple frameworks. Full Lead credentialing requires five years of professional experience (two in AI risk) plus 300 project hours. In the DACH market demand grows due to the EU AI Act and complements traditional ISMS risk methods.

Beide verlangen fünf Jahre Erfahrung, beide kosten auf den ersten Blick ähnlich viel. Trotzdem führen CISSP und CISM in verschiedene Berufe. Der Vergleich mit den Zahlen, die Kursanbieter nicht zeigen.

Beide kommen von der ISACA, verlangen fünf Jahre Erfahrung und kosten fast dasselbe. Der Unterschied liegt nicht im Preis, sondern in der Rolle: steuern oder prüfen. Der Vergleich mit den Zahlen und der Rollen-Abbildung.

Beide sind Einsteiger-Zertifikate ohne Zulassungshürde, beide decken die Grundlagen der Cybersicherheit ab, und trotzdem stehen sie für verschiedene Strategien: das eine als niedrigschwelliger, zeitweise kostenloser Start, das andere als etablierter Nachweis mit Gewicht im Arbeitsmarkt. Der Vergleich mit den Zahlen und der gegenläufigen Kostenlogik.
