4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent CISSP preparation guide, March 20, 2003
The number of CISSP prep books has gone from zero two years ago, to about 15 in March 2003. With that, choosing the best CISSP prep guide is both a matter of personal preference, and budget; as some of these titles can cost nearly $90.00

While not cheap, ... the `CISSP Training Guide' by Roberta Bragg is definitely an excellent resource for anyone preparing for the CISSP examination.

This book, like all of the other CISSP prep guides is organized according to the 10 domains of the CBK (Common Body of Knowledge).

Where this book shines is in its organization and presentation of the material. The material itself is presented in a well-organized and easily readable style. Other titles are written in a much more technical style, which make memorization of the concepts more difficult. But Roberta Bragg has written her `CISSP Training Guide' in a very readable and clear manner.

The book also has a number of case studies that attempt to make the material more understandable by presenting real-world scenarios. The case studies do a fine job of taking often-abstract security concepts and mapping them into understandable ideas.

The CD-ROM is helpful, but there are many pop-ups requesting the test taker to pay to upgrade to a premium edition of the test.

Overall, the `CISSP Training Guide' is one of the better CISSP prep guides. Anyone looking for a solid CISSP preparation resource should definitely consider this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, October 31, 2003
By A Customer
I was skeptical after seeing that last review, but after reading much of the book, I'm not sure what that last reviewer is talking about. If you're new to security CISSP isn't for you -- try Security+ -- nor is this book. If you're in over your head, don't blame the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very well put together., December 3, 2002
Over the past year I have found more and more the need to qualified security professionals. I have also found that security certifications are more in demand than ever.

This 700 page manual is an excellent resource for the certification of CISSP. Broken down into three parts part 1 breaks down the exam objectives by covering such topics as access control, which is an excellent read.

Also in this section you cover security management, which I found to be helpful in my job. Other topics in network fundamentals, disaster recovery and law and ethics.

Part 2 is the final review of the entire 10 domains, which has a practice exam included. Part 3 is used for appendices and other material. There is a cd included, using the Prep Logic testing engine, and you can order more exams from the Prep Logic website.

The book has exercises and test and review questions in each chapter. Overall the book can be used in a self study mode or better yet in the formal classroom setting.
