Great book, once you get beyond the continuous degrading of males. The book has an underlying theme of portraying males as, untrustworthy employees, lazy, and as "hackers" (unskilled; i.e. script kiddies). In contrast, females are commonly portrayed as managers, security professionals, and "attackers" (highly skilled professionals). The book is also laden with poor attempts at humor that simply detract from learning. Barring this, the book is worth the read and provides ample information to pass the CISSP test.

This book is one of the best resources in preparing for the CISSP exam. Although it may contain a few errors, the author presents the material in an easy-to-read style. Sure, the exam may not cover every sentence and paragraph from this text, but that's true of any study guide. Each exam is different, and not everything can be covered in 250 questions. The additional information in this text also aids in better understanding of some of the concepts.
You must know and understand the concepts to pass this exam. While reading through unfamiliar domains or "hard to grasp" concepts, read some of the listed references, applicable NIST documents, or websites. Reading this text and cross-referencing the material with other resources will increase your understanding. I used the following:
1. AIOv3 (All in One)
2. CISSP Passport (good for a quick study session, but not nearly as in-depth)
3. Exam Force Audio MP3 (not as in-depth, but good for using your driving time wisely)
4. The CISSP and CAP Prep Guide (didn't use this one too much...not an easy read)
In addition to your chosen resources, be sure to take plenty of practice exams. I found that cccure.org is an excellent resource, as it's free and others try to charge for the same questions. These questions will give you a feel for the "wording" on the actual exam, but you'll never see any exact questions come test day.
Good luck on the exam, and remember to think of each answer from a manager's perspective. Skip the questions that may seem difficult, and they "should" seem a lot easier once you've come back to them at the end. Your experience, coupled with a good study plan will get you there. Again, good luck!

I took the CISSP exam and passed it!!!
I purchased three CISSP reference books: Official (ISC)2 Guide to the CISSP Exam, The CISSP Prep Guide Gold Edition and All in One CISSP.
The Official (ISC)2 almost put me to sleep after reading the first 72 pages. Very DRY and BORING book.
I DID NOT use this book after all.
In my opinion All In One CISSP is the best written amongst the three books that I purchased.
I read All In One CISSP book twice to prepare for the test. I used The CISSP Prep Guide Gold Edition to reinforce the Operations Security domain.
My strategy to take the test:
- READ THE QUESTIONS CAREFULLY
- READ THE QUESTIONS CAREFULLY
- READ THE QUESTIONS CAREFULLY
- ANSWER EACH QUESTION FROM SECURITY POINT OF VIEW.
Quite a few people completed the test within 3 hours, however, I almost used all of the allocated time (5 hours and 50 minutes)
GOOD LUCK!

Though like many others, I thought for sure that I didn't do well enough to pass, I received my news that in fact I did pass the CISSP. Many thanks to this book, as well as the references at the end of the sections. Here are some brief pros and cons of the book as I saw it:
Pros:
- well written, easy to understand all domains (including crypto)
- many useful links to outside sources immediately following the sections
- covers many different topics nearly complete enough to the level of detail required for passing the CISSP exam
Cons:
- The index leaves much to desire, many topics that I tried to reference were not readily available in the index. Fortunately, the PDF version makes searching very easy.
- Although this can probably be said about most other books on this topic, the level of detail is lacking in some areas. There were some questions on the exam which could not be found anywhere in this book. This is probably why there are so many references included, but is probably the most complete book out on the market.
- As time goes by, the 2003 edition is getting old quickly. As ISC2 recently published a new version, this would suffice for now, but does not include some of the most recent changes to the official study guide.
All in all, I used this as my main reference and passed the exam. It will remain on my shelf as a great quick reference and tool for teaching. I recommend this book to anyone studying for the exam and wish them the best when they go to take it.
