How I passed the CASP+

This year I have decided to complete few certifications specializing in the field of security. Based on this goal, I started my certification sprint with the CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner Certification (CASP+) exam. I chosed this exam due to the reason it is a performance based certification for practitioners , not only for managers.

CASP+ is compliant with ISO 17024 standards and approved by the US DoD to meet directive 8140/8570.01-M requirements.
Regulators and government rely on ANSI accreditation, because it provides confidence and trust in the outputs of an accredited program.
I bought the book titled “CompTIA® Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP) CAS-003 Cert Guide” from the Pearson Store. The books is authored by Robin Abernathy & Troy McMillan . I spent around 4-5 months reading the book and understanding the contents ,as I was making sure that I understood the technologies and the terms in the book. Since, my goal was two folded , one is passing the exam , and the other one is to ensure that the knowledge i gained will help me to handle real world situation in a professional manner.
The exam will contain approximately 90 questions(Multiple choice based and performance based question). The duration is 165 minutes. Further this exam does not give you a scaled score – it is pass / fail only.
I am providing the link below to the book I used. Also I am willing to share the PDF version of the book with anyone who wants to attempt this exam.
