Resources and references

I keep forgetting there is already a lot of stuff I've put out there.  I guess there have been some changes recently, so I guess I should send it out again.

These might be useful for your own self-study, continuing education, and research, or you might want to pass it along to those who are studying for the certification.

There's a list of books and resources by domain.  Also a glossary of (newer and updated) security terms.  A comparison of the various CISSP guides.

At one time I set up a list of security sites of various types.  With the rate of change of the World Wide Web, there's no guarantee that any of them are still there.  Since a number of the sites may be gone, I have been asked to maintain/provide links for the Vancouver security SIG.  I have been populating it for a while, and while still isn't anywhere near complete I do have a fair amount of  useful material, particularly in the awareness category.  There are more sites in the secmarks, but this  system allows me to annotate the sites.

Somebody recently asked me if it wasn't available as a "feed" in some way.  So I'm using this blog on the ISC2 blog, and most of the time when I add another link to the infosecbc.org site, I'll give an explanation (with link) on the blog.  You can specify my postings or try the link for all postings in the training category.  I generally add the training tag to all the resource postings.
