Customer Reviews

All eyes are on you.....

I found this Security+ Exam Guide to be exactly what it claims to be an Exam Guide. Highly organized, concise and yet practical. Crayton's ability to write as if he was right there in the room explaining concepts, objectives and examples to you makes it appealing and invaluable for all experience levels; therefore making this the Mona Lisa of Security + books. The subject matter and practice questions in this book are directly in line with the CompTIA Security+ Objectives and the Security+ Exam itself. I question whether the "Reader from LA" really read this book. All of my students used this book in final prep for the exam. All 38 passed the exam.

This book tells it like it is - I passed!!

I had to become Security+ certified to stay attractive to my employer. it was NOT something I chose to do. With the recent attacks of these killer worms/viruses, our entire IT department was urged to get Comp Tias newest cert. I did some research on the study guides available, and settled on this one because of the authors reviews (on his other book). This book delivers. Not too wordy, right to the point, and accurate. Nothing is missing, and all the Domains are covered. And the test questions included actually test your knowledge. Other exam guides I've been through ask you questions at the end of the chapter and you just roll your eyes cuz theyre so stupid easy. I had to go back and read things over with this book because the questions are made to make you think. And that gives you more confidence because you feel like you really learned. One of the things I liked most was the way some of the harder topics are explained. Crayton has a way of taking what you already know and adding to it, and before you know it, it all makes sense! It was (almost) fun to read. :)This book says it's dedicated to all the test takers out there, well, Mr. Crayton, right back at you. I passed thanks to this exam guide and I recommend it to anyone who wants the quickest route to passing this exam.

Passed Security+ 3/3/03 with this book.

I can't believe I passed the feared Security+ exam with just one book! This is a great study guide that is easy to follow and zones right in on the material that the exam focuses on. FIVE BIG STARS! It was well worth the [money]. Some hands on and this book and you will pass. I did.
