I dont normally write reviews but I felt I needed to for this. Little back story - I was lucky enough to land a cyber job in the air force with a caveat being I needed to pass Security plus. I had a short amount of time to pass and thought there's no way but asked around from some folks who had passed previously. This author was recommended to me and it's what I chose to go with. Now I'm recommending it to anyone looking to pass this incredibly difficult exam. Trust me, you'll be happy you did. It's structured nicely and if you obsess over it a little bit and read and reread. Then you'll be able to pass.
