KPMG 1 list is excellent. I used Phil Martin test questions on audible too. Ref number of hours - can’t remember exactly - but a good metric is “until you hit a minimum of 80% on the test questions”. Test questions on each Domain in the official text book are excellent. As is the separate fuller list of official test questions.

Currently stuck in risk but interested in Cyber. Have done one related engagement from a regulatory perspective. But a lot of posts here making me think it’s harder to break into than I expected (non-technical background). If you had a six sigma green belt / supply chain degree/exp., would you still go through the effort of going into Cyber or take easy risk money being offered / easier transition back to supply chain? 2-3 YOE and trying to decide career course, any advice highly appreciated
