I am very interested as I am planning to appear for CCSP in 2025. I benefitted from the CISSP group last year
Practice Question
You are leading a penetration test against a web application that handles sensitive customer data. During the assessment, the penetration testers discover a SQL injection vulnerability that could allow an attacker to gain access to the entire database. The development team is aware of the vulnerability but has not yet implemented a fix due to other project priorities. The application is considered business critical. What is the BEST course of action? A. Immediately shut down the web application to protect the sensitive customer data. B. Inform the development team and business stakeholders of the vulnerability and its potential impact, and recommend immediate remediation, even if it requires delaying other projects. C. Document the vulnerability in the penetration test report and recommend that the development team address it in the next scheduled maintenance window. D. Implement a web application firewall (WAF) as a temporary mitigation measure and schedule a follow-up penetration test after the development team has implemented a fix.

@Vidya Shankaran - Congratulations and well done!
Provisionally Passed at #150
Hello everyone, Hope you are doing well. I am happy to share that I have passed my CISSP exam today an hour ago. It was a very different experience. Like start running marathon on snow, comparing the level of questions I was getting (though it's snowing outside). It is nothing like any practice tests or questions I have solved. After answering 130th questions, I accepted my fate as I need to retake again. After completing 150th questions, there was still 40 minutes left for me. I cannot express with enough words how I am feeling. Very much nerve wrecking. Easy question but tough choice. I, thank you all for posting those practice questions, for me to solve time to time. Ending with one question, I don't have experience, what should be my procedure to apply? Right now, I am a CC. So, how should I pay the AMF both for CC and Associate or only Associate is good enough?

What is the MOST critical vulnerability that led to this data breach? a) Lack of strong access controls to the database. b) Inadequate incident response plan. c) Improper key management practices. d) Failure to implement multi-factor authentication for database access.
