CISSP 2015 passed July 28th
Hi Guys,
I have been reading this forum a lot before taking the exam, so I will share my experience.
I took the new CISSP with the 8 CBK 2015 on July 28th and... I passed.
It was my first attempt.
Lot of questions related to Secure Code Development and a few to Security Frameworks such as PCI-DSS. A few scenorio based questions and other conceptual question. Many of the answers I have figured out only thorugh my experience (I am a security Auditor with 5 years experience + a couple of years of personal interest in hacking), there was many questions not related to the books I have studied and the quiz I have taken.
Here follows the material I have used:
Books
CISSP All In one guide, 6th edition, Shon Harris (Definitely Good)
CISSP eleventh hour, 2nd edition by Eric Conrad (Enough for a quick final review)
Online video training
CISSP course on Cybrary.it by Kelly Handerhan (AMAZING for ful final review!!!)
Test Quiz:
Quiz on the All in One Guide CD by Shon harris (good)
Quiz related to CISSP on www.freepracticetests.org (good(
It took me more or less 2 months, reading 4-5 hours per day the first month
. Took one week to watch the Cybrary videos 
and taking roughly 500 questions per day two weeks before the exam. I did not study on Saturdays and Sundays except a couple of them.
Now I am waiting for the endorsement process to be finished!
Good Luck to everyone!
Regards
