-> Richard,
->
-> #I am presently employed as a security consultant for NT OS security in a
-> #large WAN environment.
-> #I have reasonable experience with NT, Netware and Linux.
-> #I would like to strengthen my security skills and obtain a relevant
-> #qualification.
-> #My question is what qualification is the most recognised and respected.
-> #SANS? ISS? or some other?
->
-> There are several respected Security certs.
->
-> CISSP - www.isc2.org
-> SANS GIAC - www.sans.org
->
-> And there are vendor certs for individual products. ISS has vendor certs
-> and Security classes. I do not think that ISS has a non-product specific
-> cert. I am a CISSP and I think the CISSP is a good cert to have but a cert
-> means NOTHING if you don't have practical EXPERIENCE. The biggest reason I
-> worked for my CISSP is because I do not have a college degree and I can
-> point to my CISSP and say that a respected institution says that I know
-> what I am talking about. The CISSP is the 50,000 foot level cert. It is
-> for the Security Manager or consultant. I am also looking at getting the
-> SANS GIAC cert. It is more of a security administrator/man in the trenches
-> cert. Either of these would be the certificate to earn but I think that
-> the CISSP is more widely known at the moment.
->
-> There are other certs that I have not mentioned
->
