By the isc2 definition, yes

Lets see... do you have the experience they ask for? www.isc2.org/cissp-professional-experience.aspx

Titles really don't tell anyone what a person actually does.

@NetworkNewb- 404 error on the link. But what are you trying to convey exactly?

I was trying to convey the link that showed the exact requirements for the CISSP specified by ISC2. That your titles do not tell us what you do on a daily basis and no one could determine if you fill those ISC2 requirements by the information given.

Its five years in total with one year waiver for a bachelor's degree so it depends on if your experience is consecutive with or without a degree. Given your post I am given you are probably very close.

I guess is, should it be 5 years in BCP and 5 years in Risk Management or should a total of 5 years like (3 Years BCP + 2 years Risk Management) would do?

I think Sec+ qualifies for the 1 year waiver also?

@dhay 13 Yes, it should.

@ankurj.hazarika Yes....look at your CV as you review the domains for the test.

dhay13
