SSCP (ISC)2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner Official Study Guide Paperback – 4 Sept. 2015

Bought this book to supplement some in-house training for a career change to the InfoSec industry. If, like me, you are a novice getting started on the road to SSCP then this book DOESNT cover everything in the exam.Segments such as T1 leased lines and Clipper Chips appears on tests which are not mentioned in the book.As such, use this as a shallow dive into concepts before moving into a more comprehensive reference guide like the CBK

Failed first time (2 questions short out of 100) but passed this time after using this book. For me, this is focused on the actual exam, with useful review questions, rather than being a large reference work which (I believe), the 800 pages of lecture notes are. Won't have to sit it again, thank god!

Good book, gets you through the exam. But like other books for this cert the material can be a bit dry.

Excellent. I was looking for a security refresher and thus is perfect. Shame about the odd typo.

I've had a couple of years of broad InfoSec experience, when combining that experience with this book and the isc2 test app I managed to pass the exam 1st time. The book does have errors in it and you do need to watch out for them which is why only 4 stars.

Brilliant study guide. I totally enjoy reading it. I have also bought the official study guide 2009, but this one is way more readable and useful. Definitely worth the price.Also, some editor errors, and mistakes exists within the book, although they are minimal.

Very well explained.
