Keep in mind that the TruSecure ICSA exam is an entry-level certification
for security practitioners. As such, it covers a wide variety of topics
but not in great detail. You’ll need to be able to answer basic
questions on a number of security issues, many of which you may have
little or no experience with.
The TruSecure ICSA certification is vendor-neutral, so don’t
spend a large amount of time studying the intricate details of Windows
and/or Unix security. Passing familiarity with each would be helpful,
however.
Spend your first hours of studying performing a quick review of all
of the material covered on the exam. Take notes regarding areas you
are not comfortable with and use them to focus your study time on your
weakest areas.
As of the time this Study Guide went to press, there were no books
available in the marketplace for this exam. However, Que
Publishing was preparing a book for publication that may be available
by the time you read this. Also, there are several good books, and a
Cramsession,
for the (ISC)2 CISSP credential that cover much of the material on this
exam as well.
