I find it hard to believe that a pen testing cert can replace a general security cert. Please offer the facts not just your opinions. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin Ortloff" <Kevin.Ortloff () j2global com> To: "Mike Hale" <eyeronic.design () gmail com>; "Andrea Gatta" <andrea.gatta () gmail com> Cc: "security basics" <security-basics () securityfocus com> Sent: Friday, August 29, 2008 5:51 AM Subject: [SPAM]RE: GCIH or GPen If you read the finer print. GCIH is recommended before taking the GPEN. Both are becoming highly desirable in the market, but GPEN offers much more for your career as it's slowly replacing CISSP. I was in the same shoes you're in and decided to take the GCIH first. Hope that helps. -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of Mike Hale Sent: Monday, August 25, 2008 8:36 AM To: Andrea Gatta Cc: security basics Subject: Re: GCIH or GPen I would take the GCIH class, as you'd get more exposre to more areas than the GPEN. That'll allow you focus indepth on individual topics later on. I've also consistently heard very good things about the GCIH class, though GPEN is supposed to be really cool as well. I do think the Pentesting class would be much more "fun", however. On 8/22/08, Andrea Gatta <andrea.gatta () gmail com> wrote:
Hi, I have been looking closely at both of these classes. Although it seems clear that the first is more a comprehensive overview while the other might more specific, I really would like to hear what are your thoughts about what class might be better to start with or what the two might be better value for money/time spent. Thanks in advance. Andrea
