Hi there,

I'm aware that I may need to purchase additional materials on a domain by domain basis, but to get me started I would like to get some suggestions for good overall CISSP training materials. As a starter for ten I'm looking at the following books:


Official (ISC)2 Guide to the CISSP CBK (Isc2 Press) (Isc2 Press) by Harold Tipton and Kevin Henry (Hardcover - 14 Nov 2006)


CISSP Certification All-in-One Exam Guide, 4th Ed. (All-in-One) by Shon Harris (Hardcover - 1 Dec 2007)

I would be grateful for any additional recommendations people can make.

Many thanks.
 
nice one, thanks for your reply! work are providing funding for the material so i figured i may as well have both - i noticed the shon harris book had slightly more favourable reviews but also figured it made sense to buy a book written by the people who devised the cert! thanks for your offer of help too, much appreciated!
 
yeah i recall other reviews of the official one saying it was a bit on the dull side, and that shon harris made it a bit more entertaining!

i'm a techie through and through so tcp/ip isn't a problem for me, currently working as a firewall administrator so i would hope i know my stuff (!), i'm mainly looking at the cissp as a means of broadening my outlook.

i dont currently meet the minimum work experience levels to actually call myself a cissp, but i still think its a good idea to get into the swing of things.

can i ask, how do you go about keeping your credits up?
 
yeah i think they have increased it from four to five years experience in at least two of the domains? i've only just gone past two years so i've a long way to go - but even being an associate would be a good step forward for me! i'll probably try and get the security+ along the way.
