Hi,

The thing is that I am missing a book with practice tests as in other certifications. Also, would be great to have an updated version of the CBK. Is there any plan to get these materials soon?

Regards,

Hello @fgarcialainez,

Thank you for comment. At this time we do not have any plans on creating a practice test book but, I will absolutely take this suggestion back to the development team. As far as the CBK, we do not have any plans to update CBK this year however, the current version has a lot of great information that is still very relevant to the updated exam outline.

Again, I will definitely bring your requests back to the development team to think about for future self-study resources.

Thank you!

Hi,

Thanks for your quick answer. I have already read the CBK a couple of times, but I still don’t feel comfortable taking the exam without studying a reasonable number of practicing questions.

I have seen lots of practice questions for other certifications like the CISSP or the SSCP (I passed this exam last summer), but unfortunately not too many about CSSLP...

Regards,

Hi:

I have the same problem mention by @fgarcialainez. I already pass the CISSP certification, and I'm currently studying for the CCSP certification. And in both cases, the Practice Tests are a key to detect topics requiring more focus or getting deeper knowledge during the studying process.

And considering the natural complexity and recent changes of the CSSLP exam, it's essential to have this kind of study material.

I hope we have some goods news soon!!!

Best regards

Alejandro Fuentes, CISSP

I have to agree with @afuentes. If ISC2 has something similar to ISACA's Q&A databases, that would be great. We can home our skills and find our weak points with practice.

Hi,

Totally agree... It would be great to have this kind of study resource available.

Btw, quick question. During CSSLP exam is allowed to use the acronym glossary master list for non-native English speakers? I don't remember to have it available when taking the SSCP, but I have seen some posts that are contradictory regarding this.

Hello,

Is there a place on the ISC2 site to download a copy of the current CSSLP CBK?

Or is the Certification Exam Outline (https://www.isc2.org/-/media/ISC2/Certifications/Exam-Outlines/CSSLP-Exam-Outline-Sept2020.ashx) considered to be the current CSSLP CBK for exam preparation purposes?

Any information is greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

I bought the All in One CSSLP certification exam guide, 2nd Edition.

That has some questions in it, and access to a test engine online.

Not sure how relevent the questions are, as not got to them yet, but the book is good.

Erratum for the CSSLP CBK book

Hi,

It would be nice to have an erratum for the official "CSSLP CBK" book.

Hi,

Do you have any update about this?

Also, are you planning to create any self-paced online training for the CSSLP as in most of the other certifications?

Note that there is many (but many) people that would be interested in taking this certification, and I think that having this kind of resources would be really helpful for all of us.

Thanks and Regards,

You can find self-study material related to CSSLP in http://www.linkedin.com/learning.

@fgarcialainez

I clear CSSLP after my ISSEP, I would say the study/preparation on ISSEP clear a lot of domain for me in CSSLP. I did not read any study guide (I mean books).

You may refer to the official study guide. For online, I find Jerod Brennen CSSLP on linkedin learning can give you a good summary of the domain covered in the CSSLP and he explained the concept also very clear, a very good reminder or revision on what is expected in CSSLP. I have read through his CSSLP, and he has also other learning series on application security too.

Hi,

I already took some of these courses few months ago, but in spite that those are good, I feel that I still need some additional preparation, specially practice tests.

Note that at the end, I am not asking about something special, I just would like to have the same kind of materials than in other certifications.

Regards,

Re: (ISC)² Self-Study Resources for CSSLP

Got it.
I think you can look at the
1) NIST SP 800-160 volume 1, it is very good ,well written and relevant,
2)maybe the OWASP Secure Coding Practices-Quick Reference Guide
3) Building Security In Maturity Mode (BSIMM)
4) NIST Mitigating the Risk of Software Vulnerabilities by Adopting a Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF)

These are very good. For practice test, apology i did not take any except the flash cards for all my isc2 exams or each checkpoint question of the study guide for each chapter

I would like to understand when the self-paced course was produced and if this is a suitable replacement for the on-live course. I don't have the time to do the 5-day course during the day.

Does anyone know when the exam questions were last refreshed?

I've done CISSP and CCSP (purchased self-paced) so not sure if I would need to purchase the self-paced for the CSSLP if the domains overlap a lot.

Would reading the material in CSSLP Certification All-in-One Exam Guide (Arthur Conklin) be sufficient?

Please help with any recommendations?

Does anyone know if the content here is still relevant for today's CSSLP's exam? https://app.pluralsight.com/paths/certificate/csslpr-certified-secure-software-lifecycle-professional-2020

Good question, it looks like the exam was last updated in September of 2020 (based on my web search). The PluralSight course is November 2020. My guess is that they updated for the latest exam. Even if they didn't I don't think you are going to get bad info from the PluralSight course, it just may not cover everything. I have the PluralSight course bookmarked to watch myself.
