Good overview for the content required for the AWS security certification but expect to do more work before taking the exam depending on your level of experience.

I am so happy that I came across this book before I needed to take my security exam. I was able to pass and it was definitely the most challenging exam yet from the ones I have taken with AWS. The online resources that the book provides were really helpful (you just scan a QR code in the book at each section to access them). The exam readiness drill at the end of each section was how each chapter is closed and you get to apply the concepts you just read.The diagrams were done extremely well and I specifically liked the organization of the book - it aligned with the exam rubric. If there is only one resource you use for your AWS Security Speciality exam - this book needs to be it.

My weekend book review: AWS Certified Security - Specialty (SCS-C02) Exam Guide - Second Edition by Adam Book and Stuart Scott.Royluis Rodrigues mentioned this book to me. I need to renew my Security Specialty exam soon, so I ordered it on Amazon and read this exam guide last weekend. I enjoyed it. It covers all the exam topics thoroughly and includes a step-by-step guide on how to solve the business’s security challenges in each chapter.As a visual learner, I enjoy watching video training more than reading books. However, this book helps me quickly locate key security concepts and what are the proper resolution steps.By skimming the heading, bolded keywords, and diagrams, I can ensure I have correctly remembered the remediation steps to solve the related security issues.The book shows you how to do things and provides practice exercises at the end of each chapter using Exam Readiness Drills. After completing the drills, the reader will be confident in passing the exam and solving real-world problems as a Security Professional.Each chapter is designed to be easily digestible, taking 30 minutes or less to read for those with some AWS experience. To maximize the value of your certification journey, complete some hands-on labs and watch additional videos on YouTube.How do I use this book?* For people new to IT security, focus on understanding the concepts, with less focus on the how-to and step-by-step. Once you get the idea, doing the how-to is easy.* For those with some IT experience, concentrate on creating solutions and understanding the reasons behind choosing one security service over another—hint: AWS Services are tailored to address specific business challenges.* For experienced security professionals, this book is a great resource to review before taking or renewing your certification. Quickly skim the content and keywords, run a few exam drills, and you should be ready for the exam and your day-to-day challenges.* Skim other resources, use cases, and all the references mentioned in the book.* In general, it is not just about following the How-to but also about answering the question of what business value your solutions bring.I hope you will find this book helpful for your exam preparation.
