Re: Is CISSP certification worth the effort?
It has market value. It's worth it. End of story. Whether the exam has any value in proving a certain level of knowledge among IT and Infosec professionals is worth debating. Even five years ago, when I was a CISSP/CCNP/MCSE as an adjunct, he described the CISSP as "a mile wide, an inch deep". I don't see that that's… -
Re: Is CISSP certification worth the effort?
So it's not valuable to you because you don't think it's valuable yet you maintain it because it makes you more marketable if you look for job... Wait... so if it makes you marketable, it's valuable right? Just messing around with ya. I think it's valuable for IAM or CISO types, but I still don't understand why a lot of… -
Re: Is CISSP certification worth the effort?
it's $85 in money terms and effort in CPE terms. In my books, $85 is free. ISACA maintenance is the same unless you're a member. Then you get to pay high membership fees and low maintenance fees. Bad people can get CISSP as well as good people. I can go back 15 years to a Lotus Certified Professional I worked with who was… -
Re: Is CISSP certification worth the effort?
This is a very good post ... thank you. I certainly do not think my MCSE is/was a 'joke' -- those tests were quite difficult.

The article referenced… -

Thus the market wins and the individual kinda wins but for the wrong reasons. With that said I will tell you most CISSPs I've more recently meet don't… -

Re: Is CISSP certification worth the effort?
I think it's not only about CISSP, it's true for all the certifications. We've to remember that being a certified member, doesn't mean 'we know it all'. In real world, nothing can replace your practical experience, knowledge, analytical approach to the problem and common sense (which is very uncommon). I have come across… -
Re: Is CISSP certification worth the effort?
even if any company paid for my fee's and sent me to different security conferences to gain CPE's its still not worth it. The CISSP lists VoIP as a WAN technology when i took the exam a few years back, that's a total joke. The material is dated, yet enough companies and hiring managers do believe that the cert means…
