Free CISSP Practice Questions

Thirty scenario-based questions that show you how scenario questions work, with a full explanation for every answer and a baseline score by domain at the end. Free, no card, and written by the instructor who teaches the material on this site.

What's included

No payment information required. Create your account on the LSM platform and start practising immediately. By enrolling, you'll also receive CISSP study tips and updates.

What one question gives you

The questions themselves live on the platform, where they come with the reasoning and the analytics that make them worth doing. What you can know before you sign up is the shape every one of them takes.

  1. A scenario, not a definition

    Each question puts you in a situation with a role, a constraint and a decision to make, the way the exam is widely reported to frame its questions. Recalling a term is rarely enough; you have to choose the most appropriate action.

  2. Why the best answer beats the plausible ones

    Every option is written to be defensible. The explanation walks through why the credited answer is the strongest and, just as important, what makes each of the others weaker in that scenario.

  3. A Key Takeaway

    One line you can carry into the next question and into revision: the principle the scenario was really testing, stated plainly.

  4. How to Identify the Correct Answer

    The clue in the wording that points at the answer, so the next time a question is built the same way you recognise the pattern rather than start from scratch.

How the thirty are spread

Every one of the eight domains in the published ISC2 exam outline is represented, so the baseline says something about each. If a domain comes back weak, its hub below collects the guides and glossary terms to start on.

Reading your baseline

At the end you get a score for each domain, not just an overall number. That is the point of the exercise. An overall 60% tells you very little; a 40% in Security Architecture beside an 80% in Security Operations tells you exactly where the next fortnight goes. Thirty questions is a diagnostic rather than a prediction, so treat the domain pattern as the result and the total as a footnote. The analytics on the platform show you the pattern the moment you finish; the report that follows by email is Gagan's reading of it, with the topics to review and the order to take them. If you would rather talk it through, book a free 30-minute strategy call and bring the report.

Ready for the full preparation?

When you have your baseline score, the Pro and Premium practice test bundles take you the rest of the way: up to 1,350 questions, 9 full-length exams, and direct 1-on-1 support with Gagan.

Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?
Yes. The 30-question assessment costs nothing and asks for no payment details. You create an account on the LSM platform, which is where the questions, explanations and analytics live, and you can start straight away.
Why are the questions on the platform and not on this page?
Because a practice question is only useful with its explanation, its analytics and the questions around it. On the platform you answer under exam-like conditions, see the reasoning immediately, and get a score by domain at the end. A list of questions on a web page gives you none of that.
Are these real CISSP exam questions?
No, and no legitimate provider offers real ones. The live exam questions are never published, and using material that claims to be the real exam breaches the code of ethics every candidate agrees to. These questions are original, written to the published exam outline and to the scenario-and-best-answer style that candidates widely report.
What does the baseline score tell me?
Where you stand by domain before you spend money or study time. Thirty questions is a diagnostic, not a prediction of your exam result, but it is enough to show which domains need work first and which you can revise more lightly. The emailed report takes it further, naming the specific topics to review and a sequence to review them in.
What happens after the free assessment?
Gagan looks through your results and emails you a personalised performance analysis report. It covers your scores across all 8 domains, highlights the specific topics to review, and sets out a recommended study sequence. If you want to talk it through, you can book a free 30-minute CISSP strategy call with him. Beyond that it is up to you: if the baseline shows gaps, the Pro and Premium practice test bundles carry on from it with up to 1,350 questions and 9 full-length exams, and if it does not, you keep the benchmark and the report.
