Sweet! glad to know my efforts and goals are covered with the government. However i still believe in order to protect against attacks you have to know how to attack, in other words become a gray hat

CEH, OSCP, GPEN, and other certs/skills should cover those areas.

+1. Indeed! CPT, CEPT, RWSP (Given you have the years) would also help from a study material standpoint. Keeping up on new attack vectors and evasion techniques is critical to being efficient at any security administration or analysis job.

Cool. This will make it even more valuable when I pick it up next year. I still question Cisco IPS market penetration though....

I think that knowing how to attack is important as well. I just wish there were more "network security" aka layers 2-4 courses out there that didn't cost 1000s of dollars.
