Thank you,

I will look at it in more depth.

I was wondering if anyone coould shed some light on my work experience in regards to CISSP.

- I hold MSc degree in Information Security + MCSE so that should do 1 year,
- 1.5 years as IT Technical Consultant
- 1.2 years as Netowrk Analyst
- 1.5 years as Sys/Network Eng
---------------
   4 years

Do I qualify, are there any specific job titles they rejecting ??

Thanks

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...

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

CPTS very easy exam with a few tedious questions and also a few mistakes...

Overall good experience...
