I used Cisco Secure Intrusion Detection System (Cisco Press) by Earl Carter, ISBN 1-58705-034-X. I found that it covered the topics pretty well. Since there is not an official study guide for the test (that I am aware of), this is probably the best reference for getting a foundation on IDS. If you can, I would also recommend downloading the 90-day evaluation version of CSPM from CCO and getting to know it fairly well. As far as Unix goes, I don't think it is listed in the objectives for the exam but you may want to make sure. Good luck.

I am not too sure if Cisco has a courseware for this course. Secondly, among the 3 boson practise test on this course, which one do you consider the best for preparing for this exams. Will CSIDS courseware from cisco be of any help to me in preparing for this exam even though I do not know anything in UNIX.
