Make sure you check the "Passed CISSP" threads. Tons of details in those posts answering this.

Are you going for Security+, CISSP, or something else? You posted for information to pass like 3 different certs all this morning.

The first thing I would do is actually pick one.

The second thing would be to search the threads of people who passed for their recommendations.

I used Simple CISSP (listened to the audio while driving and read the book in the evening) and I work with the NIST standards a lot so I have read those multiple times. I passed on my first try. The biggest issue with CISSP in my opinion is keeping the management mindset if you come from the technical side. Just remember inform management first is always the correct answer

Sure, here's 1109 items available from Amazon. The exam has been covered from tip to tail and back again. All you have to do is be resourceful enough to do two things: Search Amazon for CISSP and spend enough time to passively learn the pre-digested material.
