Summary

Essential CISM has been written with a single goal in mind - to present the CISM material in a way that is easy to absorb without leaving any content behind. Plenty of examples are included to drive the points home so that when it comes time to take the CISM exam, you are ready! 

This exam guide covers all four ISACA domains, including: 

  • Information security governance
  • Information risk management
  • Information security program development and management
  • Information security incident management 

The book is broken down into two sections. 

Section 1 covers basic concepts you will need to understand before hitting each domain. The CISM official exam guide is overwhelmingly redundant across the domains, and so in this book you will encounter each topic once instead of having to rehash the same subject in different (and chaotic) ways. By the time you start covering the domains, you will already be 60 percent of the way there! 

Section 2 presents the four domains and ties together the concepts covered in Section 1, plus subjects that are unique to each domain. 

Please note that chapters may not have a descriptive name as displayed on your mobile device - this is limitation of the publisher platform. However, each chapter will always start with the title being read aloud, so it should be fairly simple to scan through chapters when you wish to revisit a subject.

great revision aid

Used in preparation for my cism exam and was exactly what I needed to pass. Well structured coverage of the content and called out where there were particular items of interest and potential confusion

A very good overview containing detail and context

CISM can be challenging to fully understand but this Audible book breaks the subject matter down quite well and the explanations are quite clear.

The narrator has a broad Texan accent that can be slow, dry and underwhelming at times. I would therefore only listen to this in small chunks, in order to maintain your concentration. However, it is certainly worth purchasing if you wish to study CISM.
