CC Certified in Cybersecurity Study Guide (Sybex Study Guide)

Very good for ISC2

Passed the CC by using this already got the CISSP and SSCP books ready to study them but could do with a book on the CGRC

This book was my best friend to study for the Certified in Cybersecurity exam with ISC2

I used this book alongside Mike Chapple’s training course on LinkedIn learning and passed the exam first time. The book is easy to read and covers the exam objectives very well.

You can’t go wrong with Mike chapelle’s excellent books, with this one I passed by cc first time, I’m now listening to security+ and have the CCSP book in my Amazon basket. Mike is an expert at his subject and a superb teacher. Get this book you won’t regret it.

It’s a good book. Covers the basics very well. The only reason not giving 5stars because only 2 practice questions after end of each chapter. Also you may have to to some extra reading about cybersecurity and networking from other books.

This really is a must if your on the ISC2 CC course. The access to free course material, doesn't cover even half of what's in this book. A must for exam prep.

This was my primary core text and I passed the exam. The book is very succinct and highly targeted at foundational concepts. It enabled me to cover many more topics in shorter time frames compared to more voluminous texts. Corresponding simulated practice tests redeemed on Wiley (Sybex) website offer exam focused practice and revision. The questions are at the right level of difficulty to close gaps in knowledge, but expect a slightly more difficult exam. Supplementary review guides and additional practice test purchased at certmike.com were extremely helpful. The cost of the book offers real value for money by eliminating barriers to entry and facilitating access to the profession for those who might otherwise not have been able to enter it. The book can serve as a quick desk reference and also help non-IT professionals transition into cybersecurity. The author is a cybersecurity professor and a cybersecurity certification expert. You are in great hands for Certified in Cybersecurity and subsequent qualifications!!!

Best book to refer for CC exam

Excelente material de preparação para o exame CC.

It is a good foundations book for the CC

TLDR: Passed the exam first attempt. Supplement your study with additional materials. Solid practice exam. This book was my primary material to study for the exam. Keep in mind that the official exam questions are significantly harder, cover more topics and uses language to throw you off. Make sure to utilize the 100 practice questions included after registering your copy. You might require additional study materials and practice tests, if you are coming from a different background like myself. ISC2 online self study chapter and final tests were a great benchmark. This book, even though great, skims over some important material that you are expected to know. My suggestion is to learn more about additional topics like subject-object-rule relationship scenarios. Network protocols and their secure counterparts, and not only memorizing them, but understanding how and where they could be implemented and in what scenario. Networking hardware components and their utilization in a company.
