GCCC (SEC 566) certification

GarudaMin · December 2014

It's relatively new but has anyone attended training or done the certification, or in the process of attending or doing the certification? If so, any thoughts? Even if you have not or are not planning, any thoughts on it are welcome.
Thanks.

GIAC has a certification specifically for the SANS Top 20 critical security controls? I suppose if your organization has a C(I)SO that is really gung ho on the SANS Top 20 this would be a good cert to go for.

Thanks JD. That's my gut feeling too. They are retiring G2700 and offering that course (self-study + exam + practice tests) for about $600 to those with G2700 certs. Considering they are waiving $4700, I was thinking of taking that offer. I am sure between G2700 and GCCC, I can build a solid case on resume/next career move. At the very least, I will gain some additional knowledge in pursuit of it.

I believe the cert is definitely worth the effort and the 720$ including shipping. I am going to give it a go as part of the Christmas Lockdown we have here. I have a good 12 days off and I think I should get the books by then.

Should be a good way to understand how Self Study works. I have done 4 of my courses via the Work Study model.

If anyone has GCCC self study books they no longer need, I would be interested in purchasing them.

Thanks,
