Read the book. Then I ordered the manual and questions. Basically the book did not help me answer the practice questions. If you want to pass the exam, get the manual and practice questions. If you want to learn some practical industry tips along with the broad understanding of topics, get this book.

CISA exam prep study guide (latest edition)
CISA study guide by sybex (latest edition)
ISACA question and answer set (software) - latest edition
This should suffice to give anyone a good try at the CISA exam. Cheers. ... Read More

I work as a network security professional, so I also relied heavily on my own experience and the experience of my colleagues. I interviewed colleagues extensively, particularly those with bank auditing experience and background in the financial ... Read More
