Has anyone taken the Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) exam?  The Official (ISC)2 Guide to the CSSLP has finally been published so I'm planning to do some self-study (the class at TakeDownCon Dallas was cancelled, unfortunately).  I was curious about your impression of the difficulty of the exam and your assessment of the benefit of the knowledge gained from preparation.

Thank you

I have not taken it yet but plan to do so in the next two months. I did pick up the official guide and have been working through it. Debating whether or not the official practice exams are worth the price.

Is it more focused on the SDLC or does it cover more technical topics in detail? Common programming mistakes, validating inputs, etc? I've had my eye on http://www.sans.org/security-training/defending-web-applications-security-essentials-1442-mid (obviously focused on web apps) but am also curious about CSSLP and other offerings.

It is primarily focused on the SDLC and where security fits in. The official book does mention the more technical topics like SQLi, validation, etc., but it is brief and the focus is more on the high-level SDLC topics.
