CISSP-ISSAP Study Guides Recommendations

I plan to take the CISSP-ISSAP exam this year. Has anyone taken the exam that can recommend good study materials? I am looking for one good book (ideally) for each of the domains covered by the ISSAP. I have found a few book recommendations, but these are mainly "possible" sources and none were confirmed as used in preparation for the actual exam.

Additionally, if anyone can share their exam experience, that would also be helpful. Specifically, does the ISSAP exam cover the same content as the CISSP exam, but in greater detail?

Regards,

Marc

Congrats mikeysg, quite an accomplishment! Best of luck with the CRISC as well. What is the Enterprise Architecture book you mention? Sorry if I missed it in a previous post.

Study materials I've used:

1. (ISC)2 Official CISSP-ISSAP Guide (2nd Edition)
2. Shon Harris CISSP AIO 6th Edition (Yep!)
3. CISSP-ISSAP Mindmap (FREE). Here.
4. Security Engineering (FREE). Here.
5. Security Architecture Reference ($$). Here.
6. Common Criteria
7. ISO 27001:2013 Document

Above all, 2 years experience as Information Security Architect. That helped quite a lot with the exam for some of the questions.

Good luck and all the best to you guys!

Would you recommend to read Security Engineering - Ross Anderson for ISSAP preparation?
