  • Great CISSP preparation course with lots of real-world connections!

    The CISSP Cyber Training helped me to pass the CISSP exam on the first try. Shon’s lectures include a lot of real-world connections which help learners understand various difficult cybersecurity concepts smoothly, especially in domains with less familiarity.

    Also, depending on the course package, students can have mentoring sessions with Shon who has abundant experience in cybersecurity and who can even help them with the endorsement process.

  • Shon does a great job of breaking down topics for the CISSP exam and explaining them. He also highlights a recent cybersecurity news story and explains its relevance. Great podcast to listen to if you are studying for the CISSP exam. I used his material and passed on the first attempted at the 100 question mark! Highly recommend.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

CCT 341: Deepfake Nudify (Wired) - CISSP Exam Practice Test (Deep Dive)
Q: During a GDPR compliance review, a company discovers that its AI-driven customer profiling violates transparency requirements under Article 22, which governance control best addresses this to align with ethical AI principles.
Implement a Privacy Impact Assessment with explainability metrics to address transparency and automated decision-making concerns, rather than focusing solely on data retention, training, or outsourcing.
CCT 341: Deepfake Nudify (Wired) - CISSP Exam Practice Test (Deep Dive)
Q: Question one, the global organization faces increased risk from the state-sponsored supply chain attacks, targeting firmware in their IoT devices.
The best approach is to classify the risk as manageable by selecting ARO=5 and mitigate by implementing Software Bill of Materials validation, which reduces supply chain risk and is cost-effective relative to the ALE.
CCT 337: UK Manufacture Attacks - CISSP Deep Dive (Domain 4)
Q: Which protocols should be implemented to ensure outgoing emails are encrypted in transit and cryptographically verifiable by the receiving server?
DKIM is the correct protocol, as it provides a cryptographic signature on outgoing emails to verify the sender and ensure the content has not been altered in transit (often used with SMIME for end-to-end protection).
CCT 337: UK Manufacture Attacks - CISSP Deep Dive (Domain 4)
Q: An employee is using a split-tunnel VPN to access corporate resources from a coffee shop. What is the primary security risk of split-tunnel versus a full-tunnel VPN?
The primary risk is that the user's device could act as a bridge for an attacker to pivot from the public internet into the corporate network, due to reduced visibility and inspection of traffic.
CCT 337: UK Manufacture Attacks - CISSP Deep Dive (Domain 4)
Q: A financial services firm is implementing zero trust architecture within its private cloud. Which technology provides the most granular control to enforce security policies between individual workloads regardless of the underlying network topology?
The correct choice is micro-segmentation using software-defined networks, as it enables fine-grained access controls between workloads and supports zero-trust principles across diverse network topologies.
