Passed CISSP 4.2.2018
Wow that was mentally exhausting. Thought I failed when it stopped at 100 questions. Had a little over an hour left in time. Big thanks to the folks on the board for sharing their study regimen. And a big thanks to Eric Conrad and Kelly Handerhan. The sunflower review material was great—but truthfully the mental processes… -
ISACA Study Materials
Can anyone tell me how helpful ISACA review manual(s) (CISA, CISM, CRISC) for study material? Should I use anything else in conjunction with their material? I also, see that they write a new book almost yearly, so how much really changes from year to year? Can I use last years information for this year or this year for… -

Re: Information Security Certification path CEH OR OSCP OR GPEN?
Thanks NovaHax. Appreciated. Now I think I can easily decide for the choice of offensive security courses. One more thing I would like to ask, CISSP, CISA, CISM, CRISC courses are helpful for what field either for pentester or only security analyst or just for management? I mean after doing the offensive certifications,… -
Re: CISM study resources
Yes, CISM is similar to CISM. Keep in mind that CISA, CISM and CRISC all have different work experience requirements, and the domains are NOT the same. JAT. As for studying - I have found that the database is enough for me. If you're really into reading dry material, you'll love it and think it's a real page-turner, but… -
Re: Passed CISA with a 663

It's bound to the user's personal ID for which they register to their own personal details. If you're suggesting if they… -
Re: Exam with Risk Management Experience Only?
Studying for and passing the CRISC exam will certainly help you learn IT risk management. There are several other certs you should also look at to help you learn IT and InfoSec, such as Security+. There are many hiring managers who only care that a candidate has passed a certification exam and not necessarily has the full… -
Re: Plan B - which test if not successful
removed unnecessary quote from reply CISA has similar overlap, but is different. CISA is geared towards audit and risk, with some technical components. (Not to be confused with the level of risk management that CRISC has...) I would not suggest preparing for the CISA with the CISSP materials. There is too much of a… -
Re: CISSP Concentrations
If you are a VP then you are governing...helping with the direction of the department at a high level. Honestly, since you have already made the VP level, there are a few certifications that would be applicable....CISM, PMP, CRISC, CISA (in no particular order). Any one of those would be good additions because they are… -
Re: CISM QAE Database vs Review QAE Manual
The QAE Manual has the questions in booklet format, and it is not ideal because it has the answers right there under each question. The QAE database is an online testing application that is highly customizable in how you want to set up practice exams. Do not do the manual. Get the database. You can mimic the real exam…
