Title: Why CEPT cert is not know?
Post by: d3l0n on December 11, 2009, 05:20:10 PM
I see the cert requires not only passing a test like most other certs, but also solve challenges.

So why it's not a popular cert? Is it marketing at there end (infosec)?

I'm doing it. Nothing wrong with the course.

Where do you get the material, just only from infosec?

Based on the material outline and the path to the cert, I thought it is not a paper only cert which is good. But it is not widely know and that surprised me.

Apparently yes.

The course is good. The CEPT cert is more like a test at the end of the course to verify that you have learnt the course material.
It would be awesome if it had more clout but at the moment I don't see an isue that it isn't as widely known as CEH or ECSA etc.

IMO just get those too. Hell even infosec says you should achieve them.
