CISSP Preparation Material

elroylive — Tue, 01 Sep 2020 04:13:20 GMT

Hi All,

I am currently planning on a CISSP exam. However, I am getting loss on which material should I get. May I have your kindly advise on that.

Is that CBK is the latest materials for preparing CISSP and which additional should I get as well? I read some bad reviews on Amazon and not sure if it is an appropriate material for further preparation

Thanks

Regards

Elroy

While there are other threads in the community which already address preparation material, I will be curious to know if the CBK will have an update because of the recently announced domain refresh, however.

In my opinion, the CBK is required reading. I enjoyed Chapple's 8E Official Study Guide better. Both benefitted me, as did the flash cards.

Step one: learn to search.

Step two: read "Security Engineering," by Ross Anderson.

Thanks to your reply, I am just now reading your February 2019 thread. I took the test a month later, not knowing I was permitted to be in the Community until I'd passed the exam! I'm enjoying your sample questions and your explanations.

I'm definitely glad I'm not taking the test today. I blew the ITSEC vs TCSEC answer... and others, too.
