I just passed CISSP today after 4 weeks of study. I’ve been in the industry for 20 years which certainly helps. I used the official study guide to reference and went through practice tests from ‘cccure’ reading explanations thoroughly. When I was driving or working out, I was listening to your videos.

Wow. I‘m impressed by all your excellent content. I‘m currently studying for CISA but I think your videos will help me a lot as well! I‘ll use them as a supplement :)
Thank you so much for these videos!!! Simplistic but to the point! I have a few questions though. 1. Quantitative Analysis - I understand the formulas, however I am struggling with doing the math manually (I won't have a calculator in the testing center and I am horrible with Math). The example you gave 100,000 x .3 (30%) = 30,000. How do I calculate 100,000 x .3 manually to get the SLE (AV x EF = SLE) ? You're help is greatly appreciated.
I have 18 videos on the series to help you get there. Good luck and ping of questions as you prepare! th-cam.com/play/PL7XJSuT7Dq_XPK_qmYMqfiBjbtHJRWigD.html
I am still watching your video. The way you present is great. Will you release a new series for the new exam in 2021? Meanwhile, I intent to watch all existing ones. Thanks.
Theses are still good for 2021, which is an incremental update. You need the CISSP 2021 refresh video + the other 16 on my CISSP Exam Cream playlist - th-cam.com/play/PL7XJSuT7Dq_XPK_qmYMqfiBjbtHJRWigD.html

Hello, thank you for the great content. I was wondering how important are Threat and Modeling, i have found poor information on the official Study guide. Could you suggest some more resources? Thank you.
Thanks Pablo! This is an exam for security leaders, so you need to know the three approaches frameworks take to theat modeling, and be familiar with the common threat models at a high level. My CISSP Processes and Frameworks video has a targeted 5 minutes that gives you this info starting HERE - th-cam.com/video/mLuLtIsDjK8/w-d-xo.html
I provide a suggested exam prep strategy in my full course, which is spouses multiple media and sources. Here’s my full playlist th-cam.com/play/PL7XJSuT7Dq_XPK_qmYMqfiBjbtHJRWigD.html&si=ZAz2TH5C0zv6l2Ic
CompTIA flow is typically A+, Net+, then Sec+. CISSP is an exam for security leaders, and requires five years security experience. Definitely one you work your way up to.
Eugene, it's intended as part of my exam prep strategy, which includes the practice exams and flashcards that come with the Official CISSP Study Guide, as detail in this video - th-cam.com/video/8TdL16yYNd0/w-d-xo.html. You will find I focus on covering a lot of important information quickly, wasting no time or words.
@@eugenechoong1270 My strategy video suggests you use my videos along with practice exam questions and flash cards that come with the study guide. Then use the official study guide as a spot reference based on areas you struggle in the practice questions. But do take 20 min and watch how I did it and that will help answer this question.
Last year, with my paid online course by (ISC)2, I received "CISSP Student Guide 2018.pdf". Is that same as book you recommend "Official CISSP Study Guide" linked to Amazon ?
Yes I think so, but you will want to check with them to confirm. The 2021 version of the book isn't out until the end of May I believe. So if you own the 2018 version already, that's best case as of today. However the bundle that I mentioned does include access to practice questions and flashcards so you'd have to check if you have that access with what you received in your course.
@@InsideCloudAndSecurity Thanks for your quick reply. My concern also is the difference in title. Your recc is "Official CISSP Study Guide"; my .pdf is "CISSP Student Guide 2018". Do U know if these have same or different content?
Can't be sure, but key question that will answer the question: Did you get access to 1,300+practice questions and 700 flash cards as come with the official bundle I recommend on Amazon?
If you watch a couple of "what's new in 2021" videos (like mine), you might be okay. 2021 updates were incremental. If budget is limited, you can make it work.
What edition of the CISSP CBK are these videos based on? I'm reading the 9th Edition and I see a few items here and there are not mentioned in this edition of the book (like Loss Potential / Delayed Loss)... Is this something to be concerned about for the test?
This was based on the 8th edition (recorded early 2021), with any gaps covered in my "What's new in CISSP in 2021?" video at th-cam.com/video/Ga0AGx83ioo/w-d-xo.html. So, nothing to be concerned about. You will find in my 2021 video that the updates are incremental. You'll also find many recent notes from candidates who have used these videos successfully to clear the exam up to the present day. Reach out any time if questions as you prepare.
I have a recommended exam prep strategy for Security+ HERE (th-cam.com/video/9Hd8QJmZQUc/w-d-xo.html) and CISSP HERE (th-cam.com/video/_nyZhYnCNLA/w-d-xo.html)
If you say a PARALEGAL CERTIFICATE is equivalent to a Law Degree and Passing the Bar exam, a lawyer will slap you in the mouth. THE equivalent of CISSP is a Master's Degree? Cmon now. You don't mean that. That's like saying $700 of a certificate that a high school graduate can get IS EQUAL TO $40,000 for a bachelor's degree, $40,000 master's degree, plus another $40,000 for a Ph.D ($120,000/$80,000 in student loans). So let's not do that. It's a cert that anyone can get after 5 years nothing more, nothing less, the icing on the cake. And the cake is a diploma. Let's not do the equivalent to non-sense.
Surprising but true! That statement comes from this report on the official ISC2 website. www.isc2.org/News-and-Events/Press-Room/Posts/2020/05/12/ISC2-CISSP-Certification-Now-Comparable-to-Masters-Degree-Standard#:~:text=Clearwater%2C%20FL%2C%20May%2012%2C,(RQF)%20in%20the%20UK%2C.
