    How to get experience

    Getting security experience can be a difficult effort, if your current job doesn't allow you to work with security tools, policies, etc. I think you are going down the right road working on Networking and Security certs, of course that was the path I took when I got started in the Security...

    CISSP exam and training

    Crazynoodle, Nope, the CISSP is the old fashioned, "fill-in-the bubble with a #2 pencil" paper exam. Be prepared both mentally and physically as taking the exam can be quite an ordeal, particularly if you take the entire 6 hours to complete it. You can take bio-breaks, although you...

    Security Certs

    Speaker, From the ISC website at: https://www.isc2.org/cgi-bin/content.cgi?page=43 --------------- CISSP Certification candidates must meet the following requirements prior to taking the CISSP examination. Subscribe to the (ISC)2 Code of Ethics. Have a minimum 4 years of direct full-time...

    Computer security price

    brooksp, I frequently perform small projects involving Linux and security for local customers. My going rate is $150USD/hour. However, this is in the Desert Southwest, so that is what the market will bear. My personal approach to new customers is to measure the "flinch factor". I tell...

    Certification & Training Recommendations - Advice Please

    My 2¢ worth. When I post a network job, HR will pre-screen applications for key words that I supply. Although my company is big on degrees, I can get around that by listing a certain amount of experience along with specific certifications, depending on the position I am trying to fill...

    PMI CAQs

    Elizabeth, I taught a course last Spring based on Kathy Schwalbe's book. It is heavily weighted towards software engineering in the examples, but the PM concepts are aligned with the PMBOK pretty well. Since this class was geared towards the key employees of a systems integration company, I...

    PMP Braindumps

    Good point, Elizabeth, but I would like to take it further than that. The primary value of any certification to the holder is to validate years of experience and knowledge in the workplace. From an employer's perspective, however, it is the perceived value of a given certification and what it...

    What is the best study strategy

    I agree with nkingcad, #1 is the critical key to success on the CISSP exam, #2 & #3 just help solidify what you already know and fill in the gaps in the areas where one is weaker. (The legal arena, HIPAA and other regs were the areas where the Harris book and the review helped me the most) I...

    Schooling

    Rivaman, Have you checked into the SSCP certification. It is the entry level to the CISSP cert and only requires knowledge of seven security domains, rather than the 10 required for the CISSP. The test is half as long and the prerequisite experience level is less, as well. Take at look at...

    CISSP Study Regimens

    I got my notification in 5 days, while one of my partners didn't get the news for almost three weeks. We sat the exam the same day at the same place, so I am not sure why the difference in notification times for us. If I were you, I'd drop a line to ISC^2 and ask them where your results are, as...

    Please Clarify -CCNP-!!!!!!

    I haven't heard anything about the CCNP being retired, but I am steering my guys towards the CCIP cert instead. The primary difference in the (current) core CCIP curriculum is the BSCI which replaces the BSCN. I had already plunked down the exam fee with Prometric for the BSCN and had studied my...

    Another Subnetting Question

    Elija, I agree with Todd, it is a bad example of subnetting, and looks more like a supernetting example. In that case, with OSPF(as an example), which depends on a hierarchal IP addressing scheme to work efficiently, the range of Class C addresses (from 192.168.64.0/24 through 192.168.95.0/24)...

    CISSP Study Regimens

    mcsefinally, The one I went to was offered by Vigilar in Phoenix the week before the exam. There are several vendors who offer the same type of review, Verisign is probably the most prominent. Look at their website for more info on schedules, etc. Good Luck, Joe Joseph B. Baugh, PMP, CISSP...

    RouterSim for CCNP

    Conmeonho, My guess is the program recognizes that you don't have a valid license string and is geared to give you just enough to make you drool over the aspect of free software, then shuts down. As a former programmer and since I adhere to legally owning software, I would strongly suggest that...

    Which are the most important of the rainbow guides?

    The Orange and Red books are best covered in detail. As far as the rest of the spectrum, a good understanding of the area(s) of coverage for each book should be sufficient for the exam. Good luck, Joe Joseph B. Baugh, PMP, CISSP, CBM, CCNP, CCDP, CCSE, CUE Network Services Manager, Sierra...

    Polyinstantiation

    I found two different references to polyinstantiation as pertains to security, the first and probably the most common refers to keeping keys in multiple locations "polyinstantiation: In cryptography, the existence of a cryptographic key in more than one secure physical location. [After...

    if there are 4 bits, what is the mask

    All good reasons to avoid brain dump sites, as well. I have always been brain-drained after a given cert exam and even tho I am pretty confident that I know the material, I can never remember any questions, with the possible exception of those that I think I missed, after finishing the exam. I...

    What is the difference between SCP and CISSP?

    Ruel, If you are interested in furthering your Cisco certs, instead of going for the CCNP, you might look at the CCIP certification. There are two base exams, and then an elective track. All the elective tracks are one test, unless you take the Security elective, which includes the curriculum...

    What is the difference between SCP and CISSP?

    Ruel, Based on the information from the SCP website, it looks like it addresses network security only. The CISSP certification, on the other hand, is a more comprehensive coverage of overall security issues and requires verification of sufficient past experience in one or more of the 10...
