Would like to share my approach for the exam, passed today on my first attempt.   1. I attend the ISC2 class and read the student guide v5 and also read the 2013 official ISC2 CSSLP CBK. Read both books twice within 2 weeks and attempts all their questions to resolidify my understanding. 2. Also read OWASP Top 10, SAFECode material to under them more. 3. During the exam, think as a security manager/PM since their questions are more testing your experience and knowledge in SDLC, security concepts and project management.   Hope it helps, good luck to all.   Study hard and earn it, you will feel a sense of satisfaction.   Ben View More

Hi All,   I am looking for used/unused CSSLP Student Guide 5th Edition. If someone is willing to donate or sell the Student guide, please let me know.     Thanks. View More

Question is about earning the CSSLP vs only the Associate status.  The Exam Outline states the minimum requirements for earning the certification....four years of cumulative paid Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) professional work experience or three years of paid SDLC with a 4-year degree.   Jut want to make sure I'm clear. Having a CISSP already does not matter in the case of this certification? Does having a CISSP factor into the experience requirements and just not listed in the Exam Outline. Thank you in advance for any answers provided. View More

So, I failed my CSSLP exam and I used the official book, guides, pluralsight, LinkedIn courses, Kelly Habdersens course, etc. The point is questions that were asking in the exam were nothing that came up in any of these materials. And to not be able to review the answers before submission was so annoying. Why doesn't ISC2 release latest syllabus book ? Any tips on how to prep from folks who passed the exam please ? The official trainings seems eye watering pricey 😞 View More
