Over the past 18 months, 98% of all respondents, who studied our SANS® +S™ Training Program for the CISSP® Certification Exam and then took the exam passed; compared to a national average of around 70% for other prep courses.

SANS® +S™ Training Program for the CISSP® Certification Exam is designed to prepare you to pass the exam. This course is an accelerated review course that assumes the student has a basic understanding of networks and operating systems and focuses solely on the ten domains of knowledge as determined by ISC2.

Each domain of knowledge is dissected into its critical components. Every component is discussed showing its relationship to each other and other areas of network security. After completion of the course the student will have a good working knowledge of the ten domains of knowledge.

Note: The CISSP® exam is NOT provided as part of the training. The GISP exam offered by GIAC is NOT the same as the CISSP® exam offered by ISC2.

Author Statement

The CISSP® certification has been around for almost ten years and covers security from a 30,000 foot view. CISSP® covers a lot of theoretical information that is critical for a security professional to understand. However, this material can be dry and since most students do not see the direct applicability to their jobs, they find it boring. The goal of this course is to bring the CISSP® 10 domains of knowledge to life. By explaining important topics with stories, examples, and case studies, the practical workings of this information can be discovered. I challenge you to attend the SANS CISSP® training course and find the exciting aspect of the ten domains of knowledge.
