Passed the CCSP!
Took the CCSP Wow that was an odd exam. For prep, I read the Official CCSP Study Guide over the past two weeks, and also did the online version of the Official CCSP Practice Exams. During the exam I felt like the book only prepared me for about 40-50% of the questions I faced. Probably 30% of the questions was stuff I…

CCSP 9/7 Pass
Took my CCSP today with somewhat little prep, basically spent 2-3days skimming through the Sybex CCSP book and took the practice exams for each of the domains. Overall I have to say that 70-80% of the questions were covered in some form or fashion in the book. With that said I did run into 2 questions that I thought were…

Going for the CCSP
Since passing the CCSK and since working on CLI skills as a prep for eJPT, I haven't been able to take my mind off the CCSP. It's been one I've wanted since it was released. I actually did read through the OCG and started the Official Practice Tests book earlier this year, but dropped the pursuit of it as I started a new…

CCSP Passed - 15 Mar 2018
Passed the CCSP exam today. I would consider this a ISC2 type exam; tough! I took my CISSP a long time ago, so this was a reintroduction to ISC2 style exam. Studied for about 2 months. Also, took the official ISC2 CCSP training course. Didn’t really take any practice tests. And the questions at the end of the chapters are…

Folks Studying for the CCSP?
I have decided that I am going to start studying for the CCSP. I did the CISSP back in 2010 and figured that it would probably be my only (ISC)2 certification.

CCSP Resources
For those who have passed this test, do you think it was much harder than the CISSP? I have very limited experience with AWS and/or any app programming. O365 and powershell/Azure is pretty much it.

CCSP practice exam
I'm looking to clear the CCSP exam end of January. I would like to practice some questions while reviewing the official book, AIO, CSA, and ENISA documents. I'm aware of cccure and sybex test bank - but IMHO these exams could give one false confidence. Does anyone tried already secloud.guru? Thanks

Passed CCSP
I took and passed the CCSP exam yesterday. One word of caution: in my opinion, the ISC2 official study guide probably covers about 50-60% of the knowledge content required. I found myself relying on my existing knowledge and experience for much of the test. I skimmed through the CSA V4 document (to reinforce my prior…

CCSP CBK - just pay shipping.
Last year I got Mitechniq's extra copy of the Official Guide to the CCSP CBK. I am paying it forward with the same deal I got: $10 to cover shipping. The book is $55 on Amazon so definitely a great deal. Not the best book to read but certainly an necessary evil if going for CCSP. Hit me up via PM if you want it.
