Effective April 15, 2018, the CISSP exam will be based on a new exam outline (https://www.isc2.org/Certifications/CISSP). Will the CISSP All-in-One Exam Guide, Seventh Edition be the right book for the new exam outline?

    Usually they don't change much. All the fundamentals stay. Some older stuff gets dropped (like TCSEC) and newer stuff gets added (like cloud, RESTful stuff, etc). I'd say 90%+ stays the same.

    The Official Sybex CISSP Study Guide 8th Edition will be available in May 2018. The Official (ISC)² CISSP CBK, Practice Test Book and CISSP for Dummies will be available in the third quarter of 2018.

    So up until May, there are no available books that cover the entire curriculum?

    My Dear Friend,

    Look. I am sure you could of easily found this on your own in about 45 seconds. But, I'll play the game:



    Previous CISSP Domain Name

    New CISSP Domain Name



    Domain 1: Security and Risk Management

    Domain 1: Security and Risk Management



    Domain 2: Asset Security

    Domain 2: Asset Security



    Domain 3: Security Engineering

    Domain 3: Security Architecture and Engineering



    Domain 4: Communications and Network Security

    Domain 4: Communication and Network Security



    Domain 5: Identity and Access Management

    Domain 5: Identity and Access Management (IAM)



    Domain 6: Security and Assessment Testing

    Domain 6: Security Assessment and Testing



    Domain 7: Security Operations

    Domain 7: Security Operations



    Domain 8: Software Development Security

    Domain 8: Software Development Security




    The only thing they did was add engineering to Domain 3. If it were me, I would still take the test with the minor change they implemented. I am sure if you know your stuff and studied, missing all of the "engineering" questions would still yield a pass. Let us not make a big deal out of nothing. Please Sir.

    ...And they did whatever they did with the weighing of the answers. But, either you know it or you don't.
