Do it yourself
Cancel ISC2 yourself
TLDR: Cancel or terminate the membership from the Member Dashboard, or email membersupport@isc2.org. The account is deactivated and future emails stop, the record is kept for 5 years, and annual maintenance fees are not refundable.
Cancel in the Member Dashboard
You can still sign in.
- 01Sign in to the ISC2 Member Dashboard.
- 02Use the membership tools there to cancel or terminate the membership.
The privacy center says that is where you update your information or cancel the membership. Ending it deactivates the account and stops future emails. They keep the membership record for 5 years after the termination date.
Call member support
You want a person.
- 01Call +1-866-331-4722, or +1-727-785-0189.
- 02Or email membersupport@isc2.org.
Those lines are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern. A different number, 877-863-0386, is for exams, not membership. Chat is Tuesday through Friday, 11 a.m. Singapore time until 3 p.m. Eastern.
Mail a notice
You want it on paper.
- 01Write that you are ending the membership, and include the email or member ID on the account.
- 02Mail it to Attn: Member Support, ISC2, Inc., 625 N. Washington Street, Suite 400, Alexandria, VA 22314.
The member policies use that street for Member Support. The contact page lists the same building as corporate headquarters for media, financial statements, and legal matters, and writes the street as 625 N Washington Street. Logo questions go to legal@isc2.org at the same street.
How to know it worked
- The account is deactivated and future membership emails stop.
- The record is kept for 5 years.
Watch out for
- Certified members pay one annual maintenance fee of U.S. $135, due on the certification anniversary, even with more than one of the listed certifications. Certified in Cybersecurity only, and Associates of ISC2, pay U.S. $50 a year.
- The pages that opened do not say the card is charged by itself. They say the fee is due each year and can be paid online, or by check or wire after you ask Member Support how.
- If the fee is still unpaid after a 90-day grace period, the certification or associate designation is suspended, and you may no longer use it.
ISC2 refunds
- Annual maintenance fee payments are not refundable. The amount can change.
