Acknowledgments

First, I once again thank my heavenly Father for blessing me throughout my life.

I would also like to thank all my family members, many of whom wondered where their acknowledgement was in the CISSP Cert Guide. To my siblings, Libby McDaniel Loggins and Kenneth McDaniel: Thanks for putting up with my differences and loving me anyway. To their spouses, Dave Loggins and Michelle Duncan McDaniel, thanks for choosing my siblings and deciding to still stay with them, even when you realized I was part of the package. LOL! To my husband’s family, I thank you for accepting me into your family. James and Sandra Abernathy, thanks for raising such a wonderful man. Cathy Abernathy Bonds and Tony Abernathy, thanks for helping to shape him into the man he is. Tony, you are missed more than you will ever know!

I must thank my wonderful husband, Michael, and son, Jonas, for once again being willing to do “guy things” while I was locked away in the world of CASP. You are my world! What a wonderful ride we are on!!!

Thanks to all at Pearson for once again assembling a wonderful team to help Troy and me get through this CASP journey.

To you, the reader, I wish you success in your IT certification goals!

I must thank my coworkers at Kaplan IT Training, who have helped me to grow over the past 15 years. Thank you, Ann, George, John, Josh, Robin, and Shahara. I also must as always thank my beautiful wife, who has supported me through the lean years and continues to do so. Finally, I have to acknowledge all the help and guidance from the Pearson team.
