CISSP and CAP Prep Guide: Platinum Edition!
An extensively updated version of the bestselling single-source study guide on the market, The CISSP and CAP Prep Guide: Platinum Edition, provides a complete study resource for the full spectrum of security certifications. It provides unparalleled breadth and depth of coverage of the numerous major changes to the CISSP exam, the new CAP credential, and it also includes valuable material for those taking the ISSAP®, ISSEP®, and ISSMP® exams.
The Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) exam remains the ultimate cyber security credential, the globally recognized standard of achievement in the information security field. Its "sister" exam, CAP (Certification and Accreditation Professional), is a fully independent credential that serves as an objective measure of the knowledge, skills, and abilities for anyone responsible for creating processes to assess risk and establish security requirements.
The CISSP and CAP Prep Guide, Platinum Edition, is a cost-effective and time-saving means of preparing for the CISSP, CAP, ISSEP, ISSAP, and ISSMP certification examinations. This guide boasts numerous improvements and additions, including:
- Additional content, not available in any other study text
- Expanded and updated Q&As
- More graphics to boost understanding of difficult concepts
- Thorough footnotes that point to more study resources
- Updated material in all areas, reflecting changes in the CISSP examination
The accompanying CD-ROM includes the Boson-powered, interactive test engine practice sets for CISSP and CAP.

I have just passed my CISSP exam, taken on Aug 2008. This guide was my sole reference book that I used and I also DID NOT attend the review seminar for CISSP. Having said that, I would not recommend it as your only source of CISSP reading material as it slightly outdated by now, as compared to some of the questions that I have encountered on the exam.
The quizzes listed on the book are also way too easy and nowhere near the trickery shown on the actual exam questions. For giggles and laughter, I actually visited the bookshop to review the 'Official ISC2 Guide to CISSP CBK' a couple days after taking the exam, and found out that the quiz questions listed in the book are worded similarly to the exam. I did not read through the chapters for that guide, so I could not make a sound comparison between the 2 books.
However, I could safely say that you should not just rely on one book and read the usual suspects of 'The All-In-One..', 'The Official Guide to CISSP CBK' and this book in your CISSP exam preparations.
Good luck!

I purchased this book for the CAP detail as I was taking the examination in a week. I reviewed the material, and although it was written for the testing prior to 1 November, it was still very helpful reference material. I have received my examination results and did pass the CAP exam.

I read it just after it was published and I think it's one of the best books to prepare for CISSP exam. I can't say it's the only study source to pass the exam, but definitely it was very helpful.
