The CISSP will definitely help, but as long as you have a very strong understanding of the supporting domains, you certainly can pass the exam. I hold a CISSP and just passed the CCSP exam a week ago.</P> Thu, 11 Mar 2021 15:36:32 GMT https://community.isc2.org/t5/Exams/CCSP-exam/m-p/43922#M1426 DBlasing 2021-03-11T15:36:32Z
