If you want to pass the CISSP exam on the first attempt, then make this book your PRIMARY study guide. If you are not planning on taking the CISSP exam, but you work in Information Security, then make this book part of your required reading. It is an invaluable tool to any security practitioner.
Shon Harris has updated both the content and the layout of this newest edition. Key terms are defined in separate attention-grabbing boxes. This is a huge help when you are stuck on a difficult concept that you want to review, such as the concepts that make up "The Common Criteria", or the seemingly infinite terms associated with the Telecommunications and Network Security Domain. If you are a person who uses a highlighter, or if you annotate passages on an e-reader, these attention boxes are fantastic for easily isolating the important details.
The CISSP exam is peppered with many "scenario-based" questions, and Shon has updated her end-of-chapter quizzes to include these types of questions. The quizzes provided on the disc (included with the book) are comprehensive across each domain. The questions offered on the disc will test your true knowledge of the subjects. The Practice Exam book is the perfect companion for the main book, offering detailed explanations of why one answer is "The Best" choice for a particular question.
The folks who compose the questions for the CISSP exam tend to lean towards the "sinister", attempting to trip you up with subtle and sometimes vague wording. Shon writes her questions in a similar style, making you really think about the material to derive the best answer rather than simply memorizing passages from the book. Her questions and the answer choices will get you into the correct mindset to pass the exam.
I have had the 5th Edition of this book (and therefore that version PDF) for quite some time now, but only recently have had the time to begin preparing for the exam. As I've heard there are some changes in the exam for which having this copy of the book will be handy, I went ahead with purchasing it. Personally, I could care less for the hardcopy book, instead I purchased it to obtain the eBook PDF version. It mentions in the description that Adobe Digital Editions is required. I wasn't entirely sure what this was, but figured it was a secure copy of the eBook.
I have an iPad, and thought it wouldn't present a problem that the PDF was a Secure version. Come to find, however, that there is no native support for such a file on the iPad or via Adobe software for the iPad. I was able to find another app, Bluefire Reader, for the iPad that worked like a charm.
In order to download the Secure PDF file follow these steps: 1. Download Adobe Digital Editions (tried to paste the url, but apparently Amazon will remove urls - so just google the app name), Install and Register an account from within the Adobe Digital Editions Application, 2. Insert the CD included with the book into your computer, 3. as long as your computer is setup to auto-run, a popup will give you several options, one of which will be to obtain the eBook (the file you download is not the eBook, but rather a .acsm file that is the key file to obtain the secure pdf, 4. double click on the .acsm file to launch Adobe Digital Editions and it will then download the secure .pdf file and you should be all set for your computer.
In order to use the secure pdf file on an iPad, find the .
