This chapter presents the following
• The definition of a CISSP
• Reasons to become a CISSP
• What the CISSP exam entails
• The Common Body of Knowledge and what it contains
• The history of (ISC)
2
and the CISSP exam
• Recertification requirements
• An assessment test to gauge your current knowledge of security

This book is intended not only to provide you with the necessary information to help
you gain a CISSP certification, but also to welcome you into the exciting and challeng-
ing world of security.
The Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) exam covers ten
different subjects, more commonly referred to as domains. The subject matter of each
domain can easily be seen as its own area of study, and in many cases individuals work
exclusively in these fields as experts. For many of these subjects, extensive resources can
be consulted and referenced to become an expert in that area. Because of this, a com-
mon misconception is that the only way to succeed at the CISSP exam is to immerse
yourself in a massive stack of texts and study materials. Fortunately, an easier approach
exists. By using this fourth edition of the CISSP All-in-One Exam Guide, you can success-
fully complete and pass the CISSP exam and achieve your CISSP certification. The goal
of this book is to combine into a single resource all the information you need to pass
the CISSP exam. This book should also serve as a useful reference tool long after you’ve
achieved your CISSP certification.
Why Become a CISSP?
As our world changes, the need for improvements in security and technology continues
to grow. Security was once a hot issue only in the field of technology, but now it is be-
coming more and more a part of our everyday lives. Security is a concern of every orga-
nization, government agency, corporation, and military unit. Ten years ago computer
and information security was an obscure field that only concerned a few people. Because
the risks were essentially low, few were interested in security expertise. Ethical hacking

and vulnerability assessments required great talent and knowledge and thus were not a
common practice.
Things have changed, however, and today corporations and other organizations are
desperate to recruit talented and experienced security professionals to help protect the
resources they depend on to run their businesses and to remain competitive. With a
CISSP certification, you will be seen as a security professional of proven ability who has
successfully met a predefined standard of knowledge and experience that is well under-
stood and respected throughout the industry. By keeping this certification current, you
will demonstrate your dedication to staying abreast of security developments.
Reasons for attaining a CISSP certification:
• To meet the growing demand and to thrive in an ever-expanding field
• To broaden your current knowledge of security concepts and practices
• To bring security expertise to your current occupation
• To become more marketable in a competitive workforce
• To show a dedication to the security discipline
• To increase your salary and be eligible for more employment opportunities
The CISSP certification helps companies identify which individuals have the ability,
knowledge, and experience necessary to implement solid security practices, perform
risk analysis, identify necessary countermeasures, and help the organization as a whole
protect its facility, network, systems, and information. The CISSP certification also
shows potential employers you have achieved a level of proficiency and expertise in
skill sets and knowledge required by the security industry. The increasing importance
placed on security in corporate success will only continue in the future, leading to even
greater demands for highly skilled security professionals. CISSP certification shows that
a respected third-party organization has recognized an individual’s technical and theo-
retical knowledge and expertise, and distinguishes that individual from those who lack
this level of knowledge.
Understanding and implementing security practices is an essential part of being a
good network administrator, programmer, or engineer. Job descriptions that do not
specifically target security professionals still often require that a potential candidate
have a good understanding of security concepts as well as how to implement them. Due
to staff size and budget restraints, many organizations can’t afford separate network
and security staffs. But this doesn’t mean they don’t believe security is vital to their or-
ganization. Thus, they often try to combine knowledge of technology and security into
a single role. With a CISSP designation, you can put yourself head and shoulders above
other individuals in this regard.

Consult www.isc2.org for a complete list and description of requirements for your
CISSP certification.
Because the CISSP exam covers the ten domains making up the CISSP CBK, it is
often described as being “an inch deep and a mile wide,” a reference to the fact that
many questions on the exam are not very detailed in nature and do not require you to
be an expert in every subject. However, the questions do require you be familiar with
many different security subjects.
The CISSP exam is comprised of 250 multiple-choice questions, and you have six
hours to complete it. The questions are pulled from a much larger question bank to
ensure the exam is as unique as possible for each entrant. In addition, the test bank con-
stantly changes and evolves to more accurately reflect the real world of security. The
exam questions are continually rotated and replaced in the bank as necessary. Each ques-
tion has four answer choices, only one of which is correct. Only 225 questions are grad-
ed, while 25 are used for research purposes. The 25 research questions are integrated
into the exam, so you won’t know which go towards your final grade. To pass the exam,
you need a minimum raw score of 700 points out of 1,000. Questions are weighted
based on their difficulty; not all questions are worth the same number of points. The
exam is not product- or vendor-oriented, meaning no questions will be specific to cer-
tain products or vendors (for instance, Windows 2000, Unix, or Cisco). Instead, you will
be tested on the security models and methodologies used by these types of systems.
(ISC)2
has also added scenario-based questions to the CISSP exam. These questions
present a short scenario to the test taker rather than asking the test taker to identify
terms and/or concepts. A scenario-based question would be worded something like
“John returned from lunch and found that the company’s IDS indicated that a critical
server has had continuous ICMP traffic sent to it for over 45 minutes, which is taking
up 85% of the server’s CPU resource. What does John need to do at this point?”
The goal of the scenario-based questions is to ensure that test takers not only know
and understand the concepts within the CBK, but also can apply this knowledge to real-
life situations. This is more practical because in the real world, you won’t be challenged
by having someone come up to you and ask, “What is the definition of collusion?” You
need to know how to detect and prevent collusion from taking place, in addition to
knowing the definition of the term.
The International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium (ISC)2

process for earning credentials will change as of October 2007. In order to obtain this
credential, candidates for any of the (ISC)2
credential will be required to obtain an en-
dorsement of their candidature exclusively from an (ISC)2
certified professional in good
standing. The professional endorsing the candidate can hold any (ISC)2
certification,
such as the CISSP, SSCP, or CAP. This sponsor will vouch for your years of experience.
5
After passing the exam, you will be asked to supply documentation, supported by a
sponsor, proving that you indeed have this type of experience. The sponsor must sign a
document vouching for the security experience you are submitting. So, make sure you
have this sponsor lined up prior to registering for the exam and providing payment.
You don’t want to pay for and pass the exam, only to find you can’t find a sponsor for
the final step needed to achieve your certification.
The reason behind the sponsorship requirement is to insure that those who achieve
the certification have real-world experience to offer companies. Book knowledge is ex-
tremely important for understanding theory, concepts, standards, and regulations, but
it can never replace hands-on experience. Proving you have practical experience sup-
ports the relevance of the certification.
Afterward, a small sample group of individuals selected at random will be audited
after passing the exam. The audit consists mainly of individuals from (ISC)2
calling on
the candidates’ stated sponsors and contacts to verify that the test taker’s related experi-
ence is true.
What makes this exam challenging is that most candidates, although they work in
the security field, are not necessarily familiar with all ten CBK domains. If a security
professional is considered an expert in vulnerability testing or application security, for
example, she may not be familiar with physical security, cryptography, or security prac-
tices. Thus, studying for this exam will broaden your knowledge of the security field.
The exam questions address the ten CBK security domains, which are described in
Table 1-1.
(ISC)2
attempts to keep up with changes in technology and methodologies brought
to the security field by adding a large number of new questions to the test question
bank each year. These questions are based on current technologies, practices, approach-
es, and standards. For example, the CISSP exam given in 1998 did not have questions
pertaining to wireless security, but present and future exams will.
Other examples of material not on past exams include security governance, instant
messaging, phishing, botnets, VoIP, and spam. Though these subjects weren’t issues in
the past, they are now—and in the case of botnets, VoIP, and spam, they will be in the
future.
The test is based on internationally accepted information security standards and
practices. If you look at the (ISC)2
web site for test dates and locations, you may find,
for example, that the same test is offered this Tuesday in California and next Wednesday
in Saudi Arabia.
If you do not pass the exam, you have the option of retaking it as soon as you like.
(ISC)2
used to subject individuals to a waiting period before they could retake the exam,
but this rule has been removed. (ISC)2
keeps track of which exam version you were
given on your first attempt and ensures you receive a different version for any retakes.
(ISC)2
also provides a report to a CISSP candidate who did not pass the exam, detailing
the areas where the candidate was weakest. Though you could retake the exam soon
afterward, it’s wise to devote additional time to these weak areas to improve your score
on the retest.
