Frequently asked questions

The Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) exam is a globally recognized certification for information security professionals, offered by ISC2. It validates one's expertise in designing, implementing, and managing a best-in-class cybersecurity program.

Quantum Exams is a platform for certification practice exams.

To get the most out of Quantum Exams, study the material first.

For CISSP exam prep, this typically means spending time reading and/or watching video lessons to become familiar with the material. Sources that we highly recommend are:

• Cybersecurity Station Discord
• ISC2 CISSP Official Study Guide
• Pete Zerger's CISSP Last Mile

Once you are familiar with the material, it is time to dive in to Quantum Exams to practice your question reading and test taking skills. Our practice exams provide a realistic experience and along with detailed explanations of answers so that you're never left wondering why an answer is correct or incorrect. Our questions are intentionally challenging so that when you sit for the real exam you are confident in your knowledge and ability to conquer the exam.

Quantum Exams founders are cybersecurity professionals and have many years of experience with certifiation exam test prep. During this time, they noticed that many bright students could learn the material, but struggled with taking and passing the exam. The solution is to practice, but other question banks on the market do not provide realistic questions because those are difficult to create. Most CISSP test prep software uses simple definition based questions or questions with easy or even absurd answers. These do not help students prepare for the exam. Our platform incorporates the lessons learned from helping students succeed to provide an effective training enviornment for Quantum Exams students.

A Computer Adaptive Test performs a real-time ability assessment after each question is answered, then selects the next question to challenge its assumption about the test-taker's skill level. This results in a more accurate score than a standard test. In the case of Quantum Exams, our CAT (learn more) also uses this to determine ability across the CISSP domains and the number of questions to be asked.
