Security is the one aspect of programming (and .NET framework) that I find
very interesting and challenging. So after MCAD, I want to appear for this
one aditional exam. However, I cant find enough topics on forums regarding
the preparation strategy. Any help? Topics, Books, what to expect in the
exam? Thanks.

A few pointers I gathered based on "googling" and from discussions in this
forum:

4. MS Press Training Kit

Hi,

I found the following resources very helpful, during preparation for this
exam (70-340) :

1. MS Press Self paced Training Kit. - Tony Northrup.
2. Writing Secure Code - 2nd Ed. - Michael Howard, David LeBlanc.
3. O'Reilly - Programming .NET Security.

HTH,

Regards,

Cerebrus.

Thanks a lot Boomer for the links and Cerebrus for the Books. I've got all
the books mentioned by Cerebrus. Think I should start preparation.
