Thanks for sharing Bob

I have the CISSP all in one by Shon Harris and it's one of the better books I've read.

Thanks so much for the link. I know this is an older post but feel it is deserving of a bump for anyone planning on taking the exam. I wouldn't say I prefer listening over reading. It is just nice to be able to have this link when I don't feel like reading or just as a nice change of pace. Variety is the spice of life and the same holds true in the certification world. I have just started on the CISSP and do have Shon's 3rd edition book and it makes for easy reading. I work at Cybertrust (formely TruSecure) and we have 5 CISSP's and they all highly reccomended this book. After only reading the 1st 70 pages or so I see why. Thanks again.

Aren't you the people that put out the TICSA security certification? I'm seriously considering taking that exam. How do you compare it to the SSCP and CISSP?

That's us. But I am sorry I have only worked there for a year and a half and am unsure about the TICSA. After I passed the ccsa I narrowed down my next choice between the CCSP, TICSA, CEH, and CISSP. After speaking to the CISSP guys at work I decided I was going to pursue it next. A couple guys there do have the TICSA so when I get a chance I will ask them about it and let you know.

Thanks. I'm always glad to get the "inside scoop" on any certification organization.
