I used this in the last few weeks of study having come across it by accident online. Really helped me, and passed 1st time in January.

Congratulation, glad to hear that.

1- Which practice questions did you solve?

2- which book did you study?

3- there were any online courses?

4- how long have you been in IT security?

5- do you have SSCP?

I appreciate your answer in advance.

Frankly, I did not pass CISSP exam 3 weeks ago... and I am trying to do it again.

definitely, I will review the cheat sheet summary

Enjoy your success, all the best.

Hi,

Lots of different resources, but read the Sybex book cover to cover initially. Lots of other sources include YouTube , Cybrary and various CISSP apps. I think it’s really important to immerse yourself in the subject matter as much as possible - it’s not an exam you could pass just by studying 1 book, unless you have years of experience to back it up (in my opinion anyway)

I hadn’t done SSCP.

About 2 years working in Cyber security, but not dedicated to only this. That said lots of practical experience in some of the domains. - e.g BCP & Disaster recovery I could talk about for hours. Some of the other domains I struggled with.

I found the exam very hard, but more with how it was constructed rather than the content - I was getting increasingly befuddled towards the end with the LEAST, LESS LIKELY,BEST considerations. I just took it slowly and managed to pass somehow.

Good luck.

There are many resources out there relating to CISSP. What makes this one stand out? Also I worry about the concept of cheating. It has been said many times, a badge only has value if it is earned through confirmation of learning supported by experience of delivery. If it can be gained by cheeeting it looses value and in the end you only cheet yourself.

Wow - that's some useful summary - love it. Going to use it a lot just as a good reference to have on hand. Calling it a cheat sheet is a bit of a misnomer tho' - it's a really good reference summary.

Thanks for passing it along.

Hi there,

They don't mean "cheat" sheet in the true sense of the word (not literally). It is simply a condensed study guide that some found helpful. Believe me, there is no way you can cheat. They even checked the stems of my eyeglasses at the study site! It was useful to me towards the end of my study journey, but of most value to me were the Sybex materials and Kelly Hanrahan at cybrary.

Thanks, but this is like a book. Not sure how am I suppose to tattoo 40 pages on my arm.

Thanks this is the best cheat sheet I've seen. I've already passed the exam but its still a good reference. Would make a great poster or set of posters.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Helps the community. The authors take the credit for their work.

I didn't have time to sit down and write a summary for myself. This reference was very useful 3 days before exam, even on the bus to the exam.

Some useful resources we can't just find it straight after googling but need to dig deep page after page 🙂

Community all agreed and witness that we can't even cheat on any ISC2 certification. Unless you have the offline copy of the system and you extract the question and studied haha

Have a great day.

So happy that I found this. I am going to sit for this exam in October of this year, so I'm sure this will be a valuable tool to familiarize myself with the items of which I have less experience.

I haven't reviewed CISSP core materials for a longtime, this is certainly a good summary info to look at from time to time, to refresh the key concepts.

The Cybrary video series with Kelly helped me tremendously!

Not a bad study guide, but I would certainly shy away from calling it a cheetsheet (sp). When I first took the exam back in 2016 (before moving to the new CAT format), I found the following resources to be quite useful:

Online Video Bootcamps (Free when I took the exam)

YouTube: Larry Greenblatt's "8 Domains of CISSP"

CybraryIT: Kelly Handerhan's "ISC2 CISSP"

I also downloaded several apps on my iPhone and iPad, but the ones that proved most beneficial were the ones with the mock exams.

I hope this helps!

Hi Thanks for this.

i have recently failed the exam, I suffer from Dyslexia and struggled to understand some of the questions.

Looking to peruse the qualification again, hopefully this will help.

thanks
