All of the bootcamps are just CBK reviews. There is no way for someone to pass this exam without the prerequisite experience. There is just way too much material to cover for any bootcamp to be enough. -Craig ________________________________ From: The EDUCAUSE Security Constituent Group Listserv on behalf of Doug Markiewicz Sent: Mon 12/8/2008 8:49 AM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: Re: [SECURITY] recommendation for a cissp bootcamp If you've been working in security for awhile, I'd recommend one of those 3-5 day CBK reviews that focuses on how to pass the test over a boot camp. There is a lot of stuff that you'll just need to memorize for the test <cough>Bell-LaPadula</cough> and a CBK review should help flush those items out. I'd recommend the CISSP Passport book written by Shon Harris (ISBN 0072225785) over the big book. It gets to the point and is significantly shorter. I took the CBK review a month prior, read through the passport book a couple times and that was sufficient. I second all the comments on the CCCure sample tests. Good luck!
