If you don't mind me asking, what books did you study or material. I'm also
trying to see if I could go for CISSP... Any kind of help would be great..

Subject: I've passed the CISSP exam, few months back...Now what???

I have passed the CISSP exam few month back. I have almost 14 years
experience in the IT field, support, networking, and routing.  I thought
that adding security to this profile will be cool. . I prepared for it just
like any other exam; I read the right books, studied well and passed. The
problem is that now few months later I feel that I have forgot everything. I
want to apply for a security consultant position, but I feel that I lack the
confidence to fulfill this position. What went wrong????
I am willing to devote time and effort to bridge the gap and rebuild this
"Security skill set" but I don't know where to start or what book to read.
Please guys advice!
