Hello guys,
Just passed my Net+ Exam 2 days ago :D

Now I am going for Sec+ (The SY0-401 Exam). As there are still limited number of SY0-401 books that have been published at the moment, which book do you guys recommend?

I am thinking of buying this one published by Sybex as my primary study book:
CompTIA Security+ Study Guide: SY0-401, 6th edition (by Emmett Dulaney and Chuck Easttom)
CompTIA Security+ Study Guide: SY0-401: Emmett Dulaney, Chuck Easttom: 9781118875070: Amazon.com: Books

What do you guys think about this book? Is it good icon_confused.gif:

    That's what I'm currently using right now and it's great. I will probably also buy a text for strictly practice exams, but besides that book you could just use CBT nuggets or Prof Messer's vids on youtube to supplement.

    Goodluck!

    Darril's Gibson's 401 guide is out, at least on Kindle. Highly recommended!
