CCSP Certified Cloud Security Professional All-in-One Exam Guide, Second Edition 2nd Edition

The CCSP softback edition is a well-bound, easy-to-read resource that thoroughly covers the material for the CCSP cloud security certification. It’s also assigned reading for my M.S. in Cybersecurity Management program at Purdue University. The book does an excellent job of breaking down complex technical concepts into accessible and understandable language, making it suitable for learners at different levels.While the CCSP certification doesn't dive deeply into any one area of information security engineering, it provides a solid foundation in cloud security principles. In contrast, the CISSP exam prep material I'm also studying is much more technical, complex, and wide-ranging, covering topics such as data centers and the physical infrastructure that supports cloud services. The CCSP book, however, only touches upon some of these more intricate cybersecurity topics.Overall, I’m pleased with the content and the way it's presented, making for an enjoyable and educational read. I purchased the book on Amazon and saved significantly compared to retail prices at stores like Barnes & Noble. If you're preparing for the CCSP exam, I highly recommend getting this book on Amazon for both its quality and cost savings.

The exam tips are helpful and correct. Concepts are introduced and then explained in great detail with good examples. I was going to skip what I knew, but enjoyed the read too much. Much better than another study guide I tried. If you are using Kindle, make flash cards as you read for review later.

I agree with the other buyer's (Armorek) comments. In addition, some concepts interpretation doesn't match the CCSP official study guide, which cause misunderstandings.After reading the other two books (official study guide, CCSP CBK), I have to say this is the best written and organized study book compared to the other two books.

I utilized this material as a jump off point and passed the exam

Very thorough but easy to read.

Hello,It's my pleasure to be the first to review this book. I have successfully passed CCSP exam today and I have used this book as my primary study source. I rate this book with 4 stars for two reasons, 1) I would like to have seen some real life stories which would help to further explain some of the concepts, and 2) practice question in the book are a lot easier than on the real exam. Otherwise, the book is well written and covers ALMOST everything. Not everything is explained in the book but don't think it's possible either. The exam requires that candidate has multiple years of experience and previous security certifications and experience will help as well. Very valuable additional materials I have read are CSA Security Guidance and OWASP Top 10-2017. I also used practice questions from an Official CCSP Study Guide which are more inline with the real exam.Anyway, I definitely recommend this book!Dinko

I really enjoy the All in One Books for the ISC2 tests. They generally contain mountains of information needed to pass a test. This one however just seems wordy for the sake of filling pages that I can't begin to really describe how much filler is in here. At one point in just a 7 chapter book, there are two sections that basically repeat themselves verbatim. There are multiple paragraphs that are entire pages long with so many filler words and reworded sentences. When a short paragraph, strait to the point would do. You could most likely cut a lot of the chapters down to 20-30 pages each if the wording was cleaned up.The questions for reviewing the chapter are either inadequate to cover material, in some cases missing whole sections of a chapter to just focus on the technical aspects (something that ISC2 avoids is the technical bit cause they want you to think like a manager or auditor who are generally outside of the technical aspect). Or the questions stand in direct opposition to what is in the book itself or the book itself is totally missing context for an answer. It'd be one thing to miss a question and reread the section specifically talking about the question and find out you're wrong. The book material however doesn't back that up or the question itself contradicts the content of the book.Let me give you an example: In the practice question bank associated with the book there is a question that directly contradicts the content within the book. The question pertains to the issues an organization would face during a BCDR event and which answer WOULD NOT be a factor DURING the event. One option is Regulations, which should be the answer, but it isn't for some reason. Regulations (as per the book material) are reviewed before your BCDR occurs during the BCDR planning cycle. So, logically, in the MIDDLE OF A BCDR EVENT when services are down and you need to get them back up ASAP, the last thing you should concern yourself with is what Regulations you should follow as they should have already been reviewed and the plan shaped in accordance with them.I've read a good number of these books and this one by far is the worst one.

I have 2 books, 2 audiobooks, and 4 online courses. I have taken well over 50 different practice tests from these books and online. I was averaging 95% on the practice tests but when i took the exam last night none of my material even remotely covered what was actually in the exam. I literally felt like i was taking the wrong exam. I have never felt soo ready to take an exam and then be soo under-prepared for it.There was a massive lack in depth and detail needed for this exam. I knew i was going to fail 10 minutes into the exam. I had been studying for 6 months.
