Re: Help me decide on a job offer?
OP - Original Poster, do you have a computer science or engineering degree? I looked at positions in the lower mainland for similar job postings a few days ago, but most likely going to stay put at my current job of 9 years as a Technical Analyst. I kind of want to go into Cyber Security as it's getting hotter in our… -
Re: Network+ CE renewals
Yeah. It's not worthwhile to maintain, unless it's tied into something you can get from work, like Security+ could be, in some cases, if you're vying for DoD work. It does not make financial sense to be maintaining an "entry level" certification, unless, like I said, it profits you in some way. (your job's requiring it… -
Re: Prep for leaving the army (need advice)
I was in a similar position a few years ago. 25B, One contract (about 5ish years). From the Nashville area. 1) Absolutely get your Sec+ or CASP/CISSP as of yesterday. Sec+ is going to be a requirement for any Gov't contracting job at a minimum. (And there are plenty if you have a clearance) 2) Work on CCNA or MCSA, or… -
Re: Re-Test Round 2
I passed the CompTIA CASP (CAS-002) exam this month and was surprised by the material contained within the exam. This was a difficult test to say the least. The materials that I used were the Sybex CISSP Official Guide (2015) and Pearson CompTIA CAS-002 Cert Guide (2015) followed by previous experience as an admin and… -

Re: Gibson`s second edition of AIO
That's true. Download the candidate information bulletin (CIB) and lay out all of the domains in a spreadsheet, each domain on its own page. Then study several sources for each domain, making sure that you know and understand each bullet point. Gibson's AIO is a good starting point, but it's not enough. Although Cybrary… -
What does it take to be considered?
I have a question. Given the number of job ads for IT roles, demanding all kinds of things, it kinda feels like it's a rat race to the bottom for these roles. If an organization states they want a four year degree, in addition to all these certifications, experiences etc. My mind goes like....really? Did the people who… -

A Year of...
I've been thinking about career paths and a variety of other things the last few weeks. I think that in the past, I have lacked true focus in my studies, my certifications, and my career. As an IT instructor, a lot of my time is spent learning and relearning things that are important to my job but not my career. I don't… -
Re: I dont know where to go...
Fastest way would be as much cert as possible. Then ask for internal transfer or apply for security related job. SOC is a blooming industry and had the most headcount among all security team. Year 0 to 2 exp (two of these) SSCP CEH Security + Year 2 to 3 EXP (one of these) GCIH GISP G2700 GSEC CASP Year 3 to 4 Exp CISSP >…
