Matt,I that case, I strongly suggest the CISSP. It is a great higher level overview of very important security concepts and issues with enough technical meat to allow you interact at the appropriate level with the technical people in the fields that the bodies of knowledge cover.
I wish you good luck! Cheers, Jesse -- Jesse Trucks, GCUX [email protected] Director, LOPSA http://lopsa.org On Aug 21, 2009, at 10:10 PM, Matt Lawrence wrote:

If you want it for deep technical security knowledge, don't do it unless you need to round out technical securityexperience or areas of knowledge you don't have now.I think you have just described where I want my career to go. I'minterested in being a data center manager and hopefully work my way up tobeing a CIO. I'm tired of being at the bottom of the food chain. -- Matt It's not what I know that counts. It's what I can remember in time to use. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
