CCSK Exam Practice Questions!!
No doubt CCSK is one of the best security certification for gaining knowledge in cloud security. While I started studying for the course I find that there was lacking in terms of resources available for preparing and getting ready for the certification course, hence decided to put the resources along with question bank at single place to help aspiring candidates for CCSK.
Once candidate starts getting 90% or above then he/she is ready for the examination.

Strategy
My strategy for electing the best answer was– by order:
1. Read the question fully – sometimes twice if the writing is twisted
2. Mark the “Keywords” from the question
3. Read all answers first time
4. “All of the above:” option exist – if you know two of three correct options
5. Eliminate options with clear wrong answer
6. Read all answers second time + Give each option a question: the “true-false test:” + mark elected ones
7. If two alternatives seem correct, look for differences or “Keywords”
At this point you either have the answer or some options to be confirmed.
Next step – Research:
a) From the question keywords, it is usually easy to link with a topic/domain (ex: IAM, Compliance, DR…).
b) Start researching for the question keywords in: my Summaries, CSA guide & ENISA
c) Confirm the finding is on the right topic and confirm the answer keywords
What you’ll learn
- Pass the CCSK v4 exam in the first attempt.
Are there any course requirements or prerequisites?
- Cloud security knowledge, anyone who would like to attempt a mock CCSK exam to test the knowledge of Cloud Security concepts.
Who this course is for:
- Any one who is interested in making his career in cloud security
- CCSK’s aim is to provide understanding of security issues and best practices over a broad range of cloud computing domains. As cloud computing is becoming the dominant IT system, CCSK is applicable to a wide variety of IT and information security jobs in virtually every organization. The CCSK is strongly recommended for Security professionals since every organisation is using some or other form of cloud services.
