SSCP Study Material?

newjack

Hi all,

Just passed my Sec+ and I want to go ahead and start studying for the SSCP. Before I go ahead and start buying self study guides I would like to see what are some good study guides for 2014. I have noticed that there are a lot of old guides out there, but are they still good to use for today's exam?

Thank you.

if you just passed SEC+, how about going for the CISSP instead of SSCP? I took a simulation test (250 questions) of the CISSP shortly after passing SEC+ (4 weeks ago) and got 63%. so I am starting CISSP.

I used Darril Gibson guide, his app, professor messers videos, and a plethora of online tests which were **** anyways.

I don't know, I kind of don't feel ready for something that large, and I would be an associate. I only have about 1.5 years experience in the field anyways. So I figure the SSCP and then CISSP track would be better.

If you liked Darril Gibson's Sec+ book, he also has a SSCP book. It's probably very similar to the Sec+ book he has tho.

I used Darril Gibson's book for SSCP. It is pretty similar to the Security+ material.

Thanks, I just ordered it. I set up a goal for myself to take it by November. Lots of Holidays soon so it may be difficult.
