Hello- I was wondering if there are any security certifications
that are not
specific to any product/s. One that tests the general
understanding of
the security concepts in general. Most of the certifications I have heard of are more IT oriented. Any specifically for telecom??
For the general concepts four certifications come to my mind: CISSP / SSCP (by isc(2)) TICSA (by trusecure) Security+ (Comptia) CIW Security pro (by CIW) For in-depth technical certifications GIAC would be good. Of the mentioned certifications I think highly of GIAC given the practicals they have to make. It just gives that little edge over an MPC exam. CISSP is lotsa theory and only MPC exam. However, they cover an enormous amount of material, so it could be pretty ok. After I get two GIAC certifications I will attend the CISSP exam as well...
