Welcome to my course, Exam Review and Tips for CCSP.

00:00:14.340 --> 00:00:16.110
My name is Lyron Andrews.

00:00:16.129 --> 00:00:20.250
I have a Master of Science in Technology Management from Columbia and

00:00:20.250 --> 00:00:24.390
a Doctor of Education from Teachers College, Columbia. I've worked in

00:00:24.390 --> 00:00:26.860
technology as an engineer, manager,

00:00:26.860 --> 00:00:30.720
director, and executive for over three decades. I've been a

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:34.070
cybersecurity professional for the past two decades,

00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:39.650
developing training, authoring, and advising with a specific focus on the cloud.

00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:46.570
The CCSP credential is designed to ensure that cloud security

00:00:46.570 --> 00:00:50.530
professionals have the required knowledge and skills and

00:00:50.530 --> 00:00:54.040
abilities in cloud security design, implementation,

00:00:54.050 --> 00:00:59.260
architecture, operations controls, and compliance with regulatory frameworks.

00:01:00.140 --> 00:01:04.250
I want to give you a brief overview of how we will approach this course.

00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:11.160
First, we will briefly consider the operational aspects of taking the CCSP exam.

00:01:11.540 --> 00:01:16.590
Then, we will look at a way of preparing for the exam based on successful

00:01:16.590 --> 00:01:21.160
strategies I've utilized in assisting learners around the world.

00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:22.570
Finally,

00:01:22.580 --> 00:01:28.510
we will decipher realistic exam questions based upon additional tactics that

00:01:28.510 --> 00:01:34.040
I've used successfully for myself and for hundreds of others. In preparing for

00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:39.780
the CCSP exam, do not use this course to replace the study and learning you

00:01:39.780 --> 00:01:46.410
should do with the CCSP path that you can find right here on Pluralsight. Take

00:01:46.410 --> 00:01:51.030
notes of the essential things while you are engaged in learning, using the exam

00:01:51.030 --> 00:01:56.900
outline as your foundation. The exam outline version that is being released for

00:01:56.900 --> 00:02:03.240
the August 2022 refresh of exam items and official ISC2 materials is the one you

00:02:03.240 --> 00:02:08.650
should utilize if you are not planning to take the exam before that date.

00:02:09.340 --> 00:02:13.990
If you plan to take the exam before the refresh in August 2022,

00:02:14.070 --> 00:02:17.650
you can use the one dated August 2019 to prepare.

00:02:19.140 --> 00:02:25.850
Both have six domains with weights for attention on the exam. You have 3

00:02:25.850 --> 00:02:30.980
hours to complete 125 multiple choice questions with only one choice

00:02:30.980 --> 00:02:34.560
being the correct answer of four possibilities.

00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:38.500
There may be some drag‑and‑drop questions or a mix and

00:02:38.500 --> 00:02:42.110
match. Once you secure your CCSP,

00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:46.300
you must maintain it by doing 120 Continuing Professional

00:02:46.310 --> 00:02:49.160
Education credits over three years.

00:02:50.040 --> 00:02:56.120
One of the primary reasons for failure in the CCSP is life getting in the way.

00:02:56.120 --> 00:03:00.750
Join me over in the following clip to find out what I mean.
