Hi Everyone! I received the following message from ISC2 three days after writing the CISSP exam, but I haven’t been able to update the platform until now due to urgent family matters. The message read: "Congratulations! We are pleased to inform you that you have passed the Certified Information Systems Security Professional examination. You have successfully completed the first step toward earning your certification and becoming an ISC2 member..." From my experience, I’ve learned that the key to passing is understanding the core concepts and how they apply in real-world cybersecurity scenarios. Practice tests help, but not as much as truly grasping the principles. Thank you.
