1  EH-Net / News Items and General Discussion About EH-Net / Re: [Article]-February 2011 Free Giveaway Winner - FishNet Security on: Yesterday at 03:39:59 PM
You... luck?  <kidding>  Tongue

Seriously, good luck, man, and let us know how it goes.

I'd agree, but the reason I spoke of LPI is they're 'technically' vendor neutral, so you'll get at least a little spattering of other flavors, not just RH...

Again, it's not all about being vendor-specific, at this point, but about building skills and gaining useful knowledge.  So ANY of the Linux certs (vendor-specific or not) will get you going.

It may be advantageous to start with something more general, like the CCNA, instead of loading up on professional-level infosec certs.

++1 - and / or general Linux certs, etc (ie - ones that can be used outside of infosec, but will help you when you start moving more in that direction, such as LPI's certs, or even Linux+)

If you were asking if you could land an IT security job without a degree - absolutely!  Both don and I have done so.  Sometimes it may be more difficult, and will require you to be able to speak well (communicate,) earn some certs (and continue to grow and expand upon them,) and gain as much experience where and when you can.  Additionally, network with folks, get active in IT security communities, and start getting to know people in the industry.

It's not always easy, and there are days I wish I'd had a degree to help me out with the headhunters, but at the end of the day, I'm doing very well for myself, considering the lack of any degree.

Keep driving for what you want.  I can't speak for what you'll be able to earn (or not) in the UK, but I can tell you I'm doing just fine as the sole 'bread winner' in my home, with a wife and 4 kids, so it's definitely achievable.

Good luck, and let us know how you do, going forward!

Good video, don.  (Nice job!)  Missed it the first time around, and watching it now.

Interesting history section, and ironic, as Novell's certs WERE my first certs (as well as the fact that I worked for them for a handful of years,) then Cisco certs, then the specialized ones. 

Proof positive that your historical / growth of certs, in general, is 'deadly accurate,' and, like you, I have no degree, either.

It's always nice to hear others who've been where I've been, and I find myself relating this same info to other newcomers, all the time.

OSCP is easily managed from a VM.  In fact, they have a download for a BT image, when you take the course.  I don't think you'll need to worry about that.

Just saw that on Twitter.  One MORE thing I need to download and save for future perusal, when I finish OSCE (starting Sunday...  Smiley  w00t)

pharmerjoe - could you clarify your original request, as well?  What were you trying to come up with / do?
14  Ethical Hacking Discussions and Related Certifications / Security / Re: SANS security courses too expensive? on: January 29, 2012, 05:15:24 PM
I'm trying to give him benefit of the doubt, and 'assume' he thought he was going to try to persuade SANS to swing some big group discount, or something...

At least, I HOPE that was his intent...   Undecided

We shall see.

I also head that the exit node it was possible to capture data and information.

You can capture any data at the exit node from any vpn or tor.  The value lies in the source ip address not being yours.  But if, from the endpoint, you're still sending unencrypted data to a destination server, etc, that data can still be captured and analyzed.  So if you have identifying info in there, the source ip being there, or not, isn't always the 'safety net.'

I guess what I'm saying is - can you clarify what you're trying to keep hidden (without specific detail, obviously)
