Passed CCSP

Today, I appeared for the (ISC)² CCSP exam and passed!

Overall the exam was tough. Initially I was feeling that I am going to pass it easily but later it was much more difficult. I would say, available study materials will not cover everything but you have to apply your knowledge to analyze the situation and respond with the best suitable choice.

Study Materials:

1) I attended an (ISC)² live online training
2) The Official (ISC)² Guide to the CCSP CBK 2nd Edition - Adam Gordon
3) CCSP (ISC)² Certified Cloud Security Professional Official Study Guide - Sybex and Practice Exams from Sybex
4) CCSP Certified Cloud Security Professional All-in-One Exam Guide - Daniel Carter (skimmed through) and Practice Exams (Total Tester)

I also passed CCSK on May 11, 2017.

Thanks
SB

    Congrats on the pass. Would you mind letting me know how long you studied for before attempting this exam? Would be useful for me next year since I plan to appear for it.

    I believe, the time I took will not be the same for others. It is each individual's understanding of the topics covered for the exam. I started my online live training at the beginning of March, 2017.

    Anyone submitted CCSP endorsement on new online system? When I was submitting, it did not take myself as endorser and then I checked ISC2 as endorser. I talked to a certification consultant from ISC2 and he suggested to do that when he also mentioned that as I have CISSP in good standing, they will not go to verify experience. I submitted this on 6/6, online system is saying it make take 4 weeks! and email from ISC2 endorsement stating 6 weeks!

    I appreciate any response.

    Thanks

    Here's the timeline for my CCSP endorsement

    22nd March: Submitted endorsement. Also checked ISC2 as endorser, uploaded CISSP cert and mentioned that the use of CISSP for experience waiver.
    14th April: CCSP endorsed email received
    20th April: Digital badge issued

    It takes about 3+ weeks for endorsement so I guess you may get the endorsement email around end June early July.
