Endorsement

I am totally exhausted so please pardon my disoriented thought processes :)

I am in the process of preparing for endorsement. What sort of experience qualifies for satisfying experience within the 8 domains? I have over 10 years of Ops experience (Servers, Firewall, Switches, Backups, AV, ACLs, Vulnerability Testing/management, VPN, MDM, SCCM, SCOM, SANs....).

Thanks for your opinions!

    Congrats on passing CISSP!

    Are you getting another CISSP to endorse you? Or let ISC2 endorse?
    Refer to https://www.isc2.org/endorsement-form.aspx and download the appropriate PDF.


    I guess you are getting ISC2 to endorse. Then you need
    1. Resume/CV with description of job duties as related to domains
    2. Copy of Certificate/Diploma/letter from University or other to support waiver claim (if applicable)
    3. Proof of employment for each Job/Position form
    4. Contact Information for supervisor/reference fo each position listed (name, phone, and email.).
    For item 2, refer to https://www.isc2.org/credential_waiver/default.aspx. For my case, I included my MCITP, MCSA, MCSE:Security and Security+ certs.

    For item 3 and 4, talk to your supervisor and HR. For my case, HR printed a certificate of employment signed by my manager that listed my job titles in the company.

    For item 1, you need to write a custom CV that maps to the 8 domains. List all relevant job duties that are relevant to improving information security. Your experience must cover 2 or more domains. Possible examples : implemented WAF (Web Application Firewall) and wrote custom WAF rules to secure web servers


    Refer to PDF for details. Hope this helps.

    Mike7,

    Sorry for the confusion. I have a CISSP who is endorsing me (he is a past supervisor) who knows my background.

    Does this help the process?

    Thank You!

    Yes, it does! I do not have experience with this, but it should be a lot easier.
