I would recommed this certificate for:

- people who wants to step in to the security
- people with limited network/system knowladge who want to develop their skills
- people who are not qualifing for CISSP just yet and want to learn more about practical side of security
- finally for all who are instersted in gathering all aspects of PenTesting in one place

Would you mind posting what you did to study and your work experience?

Inquiring minds want to know.

work experience:

- a couple of degrees covering InformationSecurity aspects
- vendor and non-vendor certifications since 2006
- 4 years work experience in system/network support/deployment
- a few months ago I was conducting PCI audit along with a third party company...so I had a chance to see how comercial pen test looks from inside and outside the companny...

what I did to study?

- official mile2 training Kit containing Labs, books, DVD's and so on...
- exploring Backtrack and open source methodologies for the pen test...


thats it...

As I said before, in my opinion this exam would be probably easy for someone who is stepping into IT...not having a few years comercial experience in IT...
