Advice for after the CEH

Hey ya'll

About to take the CEH in a couple of weeks and I'm really stuck on what to focus on next. I'm seeing the CASP from CompTia fill a lot of boxes in the DoD world but I don't really feel like that's going to be as technical as I'd like. I want my next cert to be more hands on and use tech that I can actually apply to my job. Would the GCED from SANS be the route to go? It seems like that cert is more hands on.

Appreciate any opinions. Thanks all.

The CASP is extremely technical. You'd be fooling yourself going into that exam under the impression it's anything less than what it is.

I've just looked at CASP requirements. WOW, that's very impressive for CompTIA !!!

Have you done it?? What books are there for CASP?

CASP exam is technical. In my experience the study material books from amazon were anything but.....

I was thinking of GCED too but I never see it on any job posts. I recently got my CEH and now I'm going for GCIH. Good luck.
