Security+ and Server+ books

[brian32]

What books or e-books do you know of that covers every possible question that could be asked on the Security+ and Server+ exam?

It's just that I've heard cases where people have failed 2 or 3 times because they've never seen some of the questions discussed in the books they've read. Thanks.

brian32,

There are braindumps that cover all of the possible questions (in theory), but I generally avoid these.

A friend recently failed the Security+ exam by a small margin due to wrong answers in the 400-question braindump he had used.

Generally a good book with included practice questions would be your best bet. I used the Security+ Guide to Network Security from Thompson Press for Security+, and scored around 860 or so.

I would expect Thompson Press's Server+ book to be of similar quality.

For Security+, I would reccommend Tcat's Security+ PDF.

For Server+, Server+ Bible by Trevor Kaye, but be aware that the Server+ has recently been revised so I would suggest this paper from CompTIA which outlines the changes to the new exam.
