Hi Guys,

Going back to my previus post: hope this clarification will put peace on your hearts.

(ISC)2 officialy annouced new domains, but according to their statement it is only change in names to clarify intent of each of domains.
So scope should not be affected.
Please refer to this link:

Sorry, if I put unwanted and unnecesery stress on any CISSP candidate, but my intention was to inform you on potential changes that could affect your preparation.

After lots of rumours and lots of fear by the people who are currently studying, it was announce in the latest newsletter from ISC2 that only minimal changes were made and they would not affect the current exam questions or the areas of expertise necessary to pass the exam. This is good news and the time and money you have invested is not wasted. See the posting below from the ISC2 website:


(ISC)² CISSP® CBK® Domain Name Changes
Every couple of years, (ISC)² conducts a job task analysis for each certification to ensure its relevance and acceptance in the workplace. Input from an (ISC)² CBK committee, which includes educators and other practitioners on the front lines of information security, is placed into a survey and sent to (ISC)² credential holders. These recommendations are then incorporated into the job task analysis to keep the exam and credential current.

This year, the only changes were slight modifications to some of the CISSP domain titles to clarify the intent of particular domains. These modifications do not affect the exam questions or the areas of expertise necessary to pass the exam.

The CISSP CBK domain name changes are as follows:

OLD: Access Control Systems and Methodology
NEW: Access Control

OLD: Application Development Security
NEW: Application Security

OLD: Business Continuity Planning
NEW: Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Planning

OLD: Cryptography
NEW: Cryptography

OLD: Security Management Practices
NEW: Information Security and Risk Management

OLD: Law, Investigation and Ethics
NEW: Legal, Regulations, Compliance and Investigations

OLD: Operations Security
NEW: Operations Security

OLD: Physical Security
NEW: Physical (Environmental) Security

OLD: Security Architecture and Models
