CISSP® CBK® 2012 VERSUS THE NEW CISSP® CBK® 2015 MAPPING

Below you have a simple table showing how the domain were shuffled and realigned within the new
version of the CISSP exam coming into effect on the 15th of April, 2015.

As you will see there is almost nothing new that was introduced. At the most about 4% of new content
was added throughout the new CBK.

On the latest Webinar from ISC2 presented on BrighTALK, the update was described by the new Official
Book author Mr. Adam Gordon as: Mostly Cosmetic.
