Thoughts about new CISSP curriculum
Hi Folks,
I am getting myself turning towards security domain rather than others. I have 10 years + experience in R&S, Security and Service Provider but I want to be only Security guy. I started my journey with CCNP ( Sec) even though I have experience in security managing firewalls and some in Auditing. Although I have some plans for other security cert in future but I am starting with CISSP. ( I know there was lot of discussion in past about CISSP but I hope some of you will still get some time to help me guide and share your experience).
After we have new look of CISSP with 8 domains I am feeling myself confused what should be my first pick for start. I am seeing no other option rather CBK because Shon didn't publish new version on 8 domains.
Do you guys think we have other resources which can help in new syllabus? How much it will be worth to study Shon's old 6th edition ?
Thanks,
Taran

Very little changed. Shon, Conrad, et. al are still useful. Check the "Passed CISSP" threads so you can see what others are using. -

Check the forum for the "I passed" threads.
New editions that covers the 2015 CISSP CBK are being prepared.
The Sybex official CISSP book is out this September while Eric Conrad's book should be out end this year.
The publisher is looking for someone to take over Shon Harri's AIO; she passed away last October. -

For any additions to the abovementioned books, this list by CCCure might be good:

I agree, old books are still relevant and very useful. Use an old book in combination with the link Eburon provided and you should be all set.
