    @Paul: Let me rephrase: The CISSP is about security from a management perspective. It's not about looking at security from a technical aspect, but instead from the eyes of management. That's the one thing they drilled in our heads during the official ISC2 training: If you get an answer that has three technical answers and one management answer, you take the management answer. It's an inch deep and a mile wide. The misconception I often see with the CISSP is that people think it is a strong technical exam. That it is not. If you go into the CISSP exam with a technical mindset, you'll fail. There are countless articles, blogs, and educational material out there that attempts to debug this misconception around the CISSP (Check out: http://www.cerebellumstrategies.com/best-cissp-exam-advice/ and http://avitria.com/cissptopmp.html)
