Thanks Meg for making this video. Your CISSP video was the one that pushed me to complete that beast, so this one is the push I needed to now tackle CCSP. Many thanks, as always for you insight and information sharing. 🙂

[@CybersecurityMeg]

Aww, thanks so much John! This was such a lovely comment to read. Congratulations on passing your CISSP, and I can't wait to hear back about when you pass your CCSP too!

[@Nezzy4Christ]

Excellent video Meg! I believe I'll tackle the CCSP years down the line when I get my CISSP too. I'm only starting my Cybersecurity journey but I anticipate great things in the future!

[@CybersecurityMeg]

You’re too sweet, thank you so much! You’re going to achieve wonderful things, and I can’t wait to see! 😊

[@SpicyPunkRockerOfficial]

I just passed CCSP couple weeks ago and this vlog helped! Very appreciated 😄 I ended up making my own vlog of my takeaway as well

[@DanielCanizzo]

Great information Meggy ! You look great on the video.

[@CybersecurityMeg]

Haha, thanks so much Daniel!

[@DanSlades]

Great advice, I think a lot of this could apply to many certifications. Thanks for making the video.

[@Lamont1818]

I really enjoyed your discussion about how other's negative comments about failing the exam can negatively affect a candidate's experience. I learn this lesson during the my CISSP examination. I passed first time, but I recall initially how I was allowing negativity to impact how I answered the questions. I noticed it early and I snapped out of that very quickly. I was lucky, but many people people aren't so lucky. Stay away from negativity people.

Great video Meg! So informative. I will sit this exam next Tuesday. So far, I only rely on the cert guide and a LinkedIn Learning course. Lucky me I found your video! Let me check the All-in-one tomorrow.

[@CybersecurityMeg]

Aw shucks, thank you so much for your feedback! It means a lot. You’re going to do amazing on your exam - you’ve got this! 😊

And here I am who is still trying to get into cybersecurity for the last 3 years but is stuck in the networking field :(

[@CybersecurityMeg]

Aww, I hope you get into the field soon!

[@TheMaximum2020]

I sat for CCSP couple of months ago and failed 😞

[@CybersecurityMeg]

That’s okay, it happens to all of us. You’ve got it next time!

[@rpsloss]

Nice job, Meg!

[@CybersecurityMeg]

[@sharathchandra4319]

Just passed the exam in first attempt. Have to say it was very tough. FYI I have completed CISA CISM CISSP in first attempts

[@sharathchandra4319]

@@joshuauyamasi4999 you can attempt CCSP without doing other 3. However, it has some similarities with CISSP

[@maritzaalonzo1722]

Does the Think Like A Manager apply to the CCSP exam like it does on the CISSP exam?

[@wavygoods877]

what are they actual book titles and author names?

[@folksjulien]

Great content! Thanks for sharing.

How can you be in a room with a puppy and not play with it for 8 hours?

[@24reyeser]

I was gonna take it but honestly its basically the cissp. I opted for aws certs instead. Thoughts??

[@ruel1072]

How many weeks/months did you spend studying each book?

[@anthonypena2259]

Is the All in one book still updated for this exam?

[@mica122213]

def would...

[@anthonypena2259]

Thanks for the tips.

[@RohitSharma-nm1jv]

You mentioned that you can flag a q and then go back to it at the end of the exam. I read that now you cannot do it, you cannot come back to previous qs, is that correct?

[@RohitSharma-nm1jv]

Sorry i just checked you mentioned practice exams

[@zsamoo10]

This is probably a stupid question but what methods do you use for studying for exams

[@CybersecurityMeg]

Not a stupid question at all! I do cover this in the video though. Make a study plan of what content you need to cover and when you need to cover it by (date-wise) is usually my go to. Take practice exams to discern where your weak areas are, and then attack those.

[@gilgilbert5866]

Your in North Carolina? I thought you were overseas like Italy or Spain? Boy, I am missing something? I guess I am behind the power curve here with your career?

[@CybersecurityMeg]

Haha, I was forced to move back stateside when Spain refused to (for no valid reason) renew my visa. I’ve been back in the states for a few months now, but once covid simmers down, I hope to travel extensively throughout the EU and elsewhere! 😊

[@jsp5407]

Hey meg ! Can I ask you some questions? Do you have a email to be reached at ? Thanks

[@CybersecurityMeg]

Hi James! You can ask basic ones here, sure.

I would just use the '3 doors problem' to solve the multiple choice: I think it's answer n°1 ...But I know it is not answer n°3 It must be answer n°2 then! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Hall_problem (also, I'm not serious)

Answer n°4 is just there to throw you off

Haha.
