Al, have you done the Cissp exam????
Dazzzzzz
if not fancy going halves on some SSCP traing to start with??? oner each should do it... don' think i could get work to pay so have to dig deep into my own pockets...

 

I haven't mate... yet.

I don't think the SSCP is for me. I believe the CISSP is THE starting point and anything else would be a waste of time and money for someone of your ability and experience.. I've got CISSP course materials already (£1500 worth) and a load of prep questions... all you have to pay for is the £400 exam... give me a call if you want to go this route....3-4 months of study and then the exam..

TBH.. the SANS GIAC is probably more down our technical route as it focusses on specialised areas such as pentests & Internet hardening etc.... but that's a step up from CISSP and is less known outside the normal circles. If a GIAC certified person came to me for a job, I'd give it to that person over a CISSP qualified one...

 

Done some reading on SANS GIAC, exams, and the top exams are supposed to be the holy grail and to put it mildly difficult......
think i might do a basic security + exam first just to get start in some security stuff... ps i have the ccna stuff for you... so you'll have to pop around for a coffee to discuss... some study stuff.

 

I'm in London tomorrow...
Footie Wednesday...
How does Thursday night sound?
I'll burn off all the prep Q's I have, video matter, docs and all I have on Certs (I've got loads on MS, Checkpoint and other sec stuff....)

Nothing on GIAC

 

sounds good, I'll sort the Cisco stuff out then... :-)
I'll be in all night. saddo...

 

Daz. Do you still want to go for a CISSP cert??

My exam is booked for March in London.. 6 Hours and 250 questions!!

I've got some good training material if you want...

 

yep wouldn't mind cocker...
