Experience for DRP

GOGONUT2K

Hello,

At my current employer I am working as a Network Support Engineer in the IT Department. One of my tasks was to participate in testing of DR Plan by performing an DR Drill. Also I have been designated to be permanent Network Admin for the DR Site.

I asked my manager to sign a document that proves my eligibility for the CISSP endorsement stating that while working for them I gained experience in this domain. He refused to sign it motivating that this is not eligible for the BCP/DRP domain and now I am asking you if this experience can be endorsed for the domain "Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Planning" ?

Was he right ? Or was I right ?

Thank you,

JDMurray

Regardless of what you did is DR or not, it's of no use to you if your manager will not endorse you for it. You need to find InfoSec work experience that your manager will endorse you for.

What JDMurray said, but what is your managers logic for saying it doesn't apply? I have a lot of the same background and I am planning to use it when I apply for the CISSP.
