This is the first book I bought about the security+. July 22, 2008 Kaizen (Japan) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the first book I bought about the security+.
I an a network specialist, but not a security specialist.
So I check technical terms and abbreviations.
The index of the book is very usefull, because it contain full spells of the techinical abbreviations.
Passed My Security+ Today with just this book November 9, 2007 Spoonfed808 (Honolulu, HI USA) I read the book from front to back and tested myself on all the questions. Passed it earlier today. My test version was SYO-101 (2007 Edition). There is a lot information to digest for this exam. The 5 Domains of Security were covered well and easy to read. Not an exam for someone just starting out in IT. I currently have my CCNA, A+, and Network+, with 9 yrs of experience in the field.
Good Book September 17, 2007 prontovic (Minneapolis MN USA) Read book cover to cover and watched the video training and passed the test with a 872
Security+ November 10, 2006 J. Soule 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
In general when studing for any certification, no one book should be considered as the only source of information. If one book, however, is going to be the source for studying for the Security+ Exam, I would recommend reading this one cover-to-cover and take each of the practice questions very seriously as some questions are very close to the ones actually given in the exam. I found the Video Training that is included was not really worth watching. In addition to being a study guide for the Exam, I would recommend keeping it is a reference for the future. The granularity of detail goes beyond that which is needed for the Exam but can be a great help down the road as a Security+ professional.
Helped me pass the Security + October 10, 2006 C. B. (MI) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is covers the topic of Security in depth. It is very methodical in how it presents the material and it was a huge part of my success during the exam. I passed with an 813
Pros - Go to the publishers site Syngress and check the price nine bucks. Very thorough and concise with very few errors. Helped me pass the Exam
Cons - 720 + pages, The DVD is worthless.
Recommendations - get the Exam Cram in addition to this book and MAKE SURE you buy the Exam Cram Practice Questions Book. It contains 700 questions from Measure up that is money well spent!!
