Hello All,
I'm new here so forgive me if I say the wrong things. I'm looking for advice on which certs to start off with besides Sec+ which I already have. I've had a few help desk jobs already up to level II, now I'm in Compliance and Security for one of the big 4 in Advertising and Public Relations provisioning new users and granting access to groups and file permissions across the world. Just trying to elevate my position elsewhere and my boss recommended the CISSP and nothing else but I don't think I'm ready for that just yet. I'm more of a technical person not managerial.
