in CEH
Hi all.
I'm a little bit confused. Now that I'm certified CCNA R&S and Security, one of my colleagues advised that if I want to advance in the security world, I have to pass Security+, which will be allowing me to understand the technology and have a bright idea about what can inspire me to choose the right decision when it comes to security specialization.
According to some articles, CISSP is one of the best paths to take. Howewer, the prerequisites say that my experience has to be at least 5 years in the field.
Another path is CEH, which is interesting me. I want a piece of advice and some feedback regarding my situation. Thank you so much.

You can pass the CISSP exam without the relevant experience, you will just get Associate status until you do. There is a small part of CEH that would help towards your CISSP study. Personally it depends on your experience and knowledge whether you go straight into studying for the CISSP exam.
You can self study, but will need to go through a eligibility process.
You need to show at least 2 years of infosec experience, fill in a form and pay US$100. EC-Council will then contact your supervisor to validate.
More details at EC-Council website.
