CISSP Guide to pass

CISSP (Exabyt3)

Steps to pass your CISSP exam (that worked for me):

  1. Grab the CISSP books by Sybex (i have read most/all IMO these are the best) My method of reading was to rewrite in notbook(s) my own words for each page that I read (this is overkill for most) https://www.amazon.com/Certified-Information-Security-Professional-Official/dp/1119523265/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=cissp+books&qid=1616504879&sr=8-2

  2. Find a video/audio series. I used Sari Greene CISSP https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/cissp/9780134218151/ I listened to this whenever i wasn't in front of my books (example: in the car, mowing lawn)

  3. Grab the CISSP app ios/android they are the same https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.learnzapp.wileycissp&hl=en_US&gl=US take the 10 question tests randomly throughout your day.

  4. Feeling good about the material? A few weeks before your test pick up https://www.boson.com/practice-exam/cissp-isc2-practice-exam (IMO) these questions are harder than the exam. For every question you get incorrect write a paragraph on the correct answer.

  5. Take the test and become a CISSP
