The research results of competencies and competence models of professionals in the Information Security (IS) field are presented. The group structure of competencies, which form a Competency Model (CM) for IS professional academic training, has been determined. The fundamental difference between the academic community's and the professional community's CMs is shown. The urgency of a general professional competencies' (GPCs) group formation during IS academic training is shown. A group structure model, in which specific subgroups are identified, is proposed. The relevance of the study of the first (so-called basic) level of subgroups of general educational competencies is determined. They are versatile across a variety of academic training programmes. Basic GPCs are formulated, and their characteristics are determined. The training modules, with their annotations and labor inputs, are described as parts of academic disciplines. The validity of the results obtained is confirmed by the positive experience in developing competencies and CM in the framework of training IS professionals on the specific educational programmes at the
