 Great Information Misses the MarkFeb 06, 2010
By John B. Sapp
THe CSSLP Prep Guide is an excellent source for understanding the fundamentals and basics of Secure Software Development, however after sitting for the CSSLP exam the book misses the mark and is not very well suited for preparing to take the exam.
The exam is filled with subjectivity as you really have to understand the mindset of the person writing the question as the answers are what is BEST or PRIMARY or MOST IMPORTANT OR MUST BE DONE and the book can't really prepare you for that.
It will still be used as an excellent piece of reference material for buidling the overall security program within my organization but if I didn't pass the exam I will wait for the ISC(2) book or take a boot camp class to prepare for the re-take.

Simply Not enough for CSSLP examFeb 06, 2010
By W. Leung
"CSSLP Candidate"
This book was created based on the CSSLP Candidate Information Bulletin. It covers almost all the topics, from Security Software Concepts to Software Disposal. It has a lot of material, although not all of them are well-organized.
One would think that after reading the PREP books a few times, you would be confident to answer at least 70% of the questions. Not in this case. After siting the exam, it turns out that you cannot directly find the answer from the book for most, if not all, of the questions. Like the review from another reviewer, this book CANNOT prepare you for the "MOST COMMON" or "FIRST THING TO DO", "LAST THING", "MOST EFFICIENT" kind of questions.
This book can be used as one of the reference material. But if you do not have intensive security software development experience, please do not use this book as the sole study material. You will be overwhelmed in the exam.
Finally, the shortcoming of the book might not be the book itself, it might be the structure of the exam instead. I hope the coming Official ISC book will give more guidance and examples for further candidates and prep book authors.

 Excellent source of secure software development informationOct 21, 2009
By Sotiris Baxevanis
"Secgeek - ITSEC Pro"
The CSSLP Prep Guide provides an excellent source of IT Security information for all IT Security professionals including developers, architects, managers, etc. The text covers all phases of software development from concept to maintenance with an exceptional number of references to supporting material and a 40+ page glossary of terms and acronyms. The accompanying CD offers the reader the ability to practice the test questions on a chapter by chapter basis. In this reviewers opinion a manager that reads and understands this book will have a fuller picture of the requirements for a secure development process. As we all know, comprehensive and fully detailed requirements plus ample time for design are critical to the overall development cycle, while the next most vital step is extensive testing. In building secure software and/or systems these concepts are even more critical, but as we know are typically ignored. The book does an excellent job covering these important areas by spending more than a third of the text on secure software concepts, requirements and design as would be done if the lifecycle were executed correctly. Cross references and notes are used in various chapters to point the reader to specific information and/or tools on the Internet to clarify a term/concept which helps tremendously with highly technical text. Within the chapter that describes secure coding, not only are the various attack scenarios addressed but defensive coding practices are provided to ensure that a full picture for secure coding is presented. I would highly recommend that anyone who truly wants to be an IT Security professional not only read this book but maintain a reference copy in their library.
