Summary: Excellent prep guide, good even if you don¿t take the exam.
Comment: The TICSA Training Guide is one of the better certification exam preparation books that I have seen in a while.

The book is makes for an excellent reference, and it quite valuable, even if you don't plan to take the exam.

The book is well organized and written. Many exam prep guides are simply a cut and paste from the course preparation material and a lot of other publicly available information. I saw none of that in this book.

The exercises and practice exams give a good feel for the test.

Taken as a whole, TICSA Training Guide is an excellent work. If you are taking the TICSA test, it is worth every penny. If you are not taking the exam, it is a worthwhile introduction into information security and protection.

Summary: Not just another Security Exam book!
Comment: I have been working on several Security certifications including CompTIA, Cisco and Microsoft, now I have found a new player in the game and finding this training guide has open a whole new world to me.

Unaware of what TICSA certification entailed, before reading this book I went to the website and researched the subject matter as well as found exam objectives and practice exams. I then took that information and compared it to the training guide and found that the authors have taken the exam material one step beyond the exam for this book.

I also found much of the material, whether you want the certification or not, is helpful in everyday network administration. Also the material goes a long way in other exam like Security+ and I could have certainly used this when I took that beta exam.

There are plenty of exercises and practice questions in each chapter, tips throughout the books and warnings and field notes to help in your study. Finally there is a cd-rom with practice exam questions powered by the PrepLogic testing engine giving you a look at the exam before going live. Overall this seems to be a very useful reference manual.
