Free CISSP All-in-One Exam Guide, Third Edition
Three weeks after I took the CISSP exam, I received an email telling me I had passed. I came out of the exam fairly confident I'd pass but one can never be too sure with the CISSP - the questions are quite ambiguous and quite often you are making an educated guess in picking out what you think is the best among the 2 choices you have narrowed down to. It has often been said that the CISSP is an exam that is an inch deep and a mile wide. You'd be lucky if you use more than half of what you studied for this exam. I am a software engineer and I know I will never have to choose which fire extinguisher to use for which kind of fire, unless I am actually struck in one!
Now here are a few tips about how to study and pass this exam effectively. Good and bad things have been said about Shon Harris's book. Most of the time people are happy with the fact that this book is a one stop shop and covers the entire curriculum quite comprehensively. Likewise, most of the time, people are frustrated by the bad jokes and the poor editing. Both charges are true. This was pretty much the only book I used to study and though I did peek into Ronald Krutz from time to time, I found that Krutz is not only a drier textbook but also that it covers a lot of detail that goes beyond the scope of the exam. For instance in the cryptography chapter, Krutz goes into the details of the algorithms in some depth that this not required for the exam. So, after all it is true that Harris's book is "All-in-One" as it claims to be. It is however entirely true that the editing is shoddy. Other people have said in their reviews that Shon Harris's lighthearted writing style makes the CISSP preparation a lot more bearable.
Dear All, I recently completed my CISSP review studies, passed the exam, and completed the CISSP endorsement process. This is a very worth while endeavor and, as someone with many years of Internet security and risk management experience, I highly recommend the CISSP certification process for everyone. Reviewing the 10 common bodies of knowledge (CBK) has value for everyone in the IT business and I am very pleased to have taken the time to review the material and complete the exam. For my self-study review, I purchased four books via Amazon: (1) The CISSP Pre Guide - Gold Edition by Ronald L. Krutz and Russell Dean Vines, (2) All-In-One CISSP Exam Guide, Third Edition by Shon Harris, (3) Official (ISC)2 Guide to the CISSP Exam by Susan Hansche, John Berti and Chris Hare, and (4) CISSP Certified Information Security Professional Training Guide by Roberta Bragg. Each of these texts came with a CDROM for practicing test questions on a Windows PC and covered the 10 CISSP CBKs. I found the first three CISSP books in my list to be helpful. Of those three, the most helpful was The CISSP Prep Guide - Gold Edition by Krutz and Vines. This book is concise, well written, and easy to read. The CDROM is excellent and nearly error free. The text is well thought out and informative. I also recommend Shon Harris' book, with reservation. I found it hard to get to the required CISSP information, at times, due to the attempts at humor in the book. The CDROM of sample test questions were also very good, albeit not as rich in features as the book by Krutz and Vines. The Official (ISC)2 Guide to the CISSP Exam by Susan Hansche, John Berti and Chris Hare was a disappointment.
