You also need another CISSP to "sponsor" you. If your company doesn't have one, then I think an IT manager can do it for you.

I've heard that one needs to have a work experience of at least 3-4 yrs in security domains. Also a bachelors degree is necessary. Title: Re: CISSP Pre-requisites Post by: BillV on February 02, 2007, 11:42:27 AM A bachelors degree is not a requirement. You must have 4 years of direct security related experience or 3 years and a degree.
If you don't have the years of experience, you can still pass the exam and receive an 'associate' credential and 4 years time to get that experience and receive the certification. ISC2 (https://www.isc2.org/cgi-bin/content.cgi?category=1186) Title: Re: CISSP Pre-requisites Post by: don on February 02, 2007, 12:22:04 PM venom77 is spot on.
