Hi,

I recommend security 101 from backtrack. It is an awesome certification where you will learn and understand security in depth!!!

Also there is no risk in taking this certification because the backtrack guys are very helpful in all aspects. The course content is awesome and now they have come up with more revised contents. Also the course provides maximum pointers to other resources where you can learn more about technology, security and hacking.

Hope this helps!!!

Hi List

 What would be a good certification for a newcomer to start a career in
 InfoSec? I've heard of CEH/ECSA/LPT but then I haven't had great
 review about it from the list. The place where we are SANS doesn't
 offer any course around. SANS Pen-Test course although is available on
 demand, it costs $3500 which is well too much for guys in my
 country... I've heard of something from Back Track guys.. looks
 promising... but risky too at the same time...

 what certification would be most rewarding to get a good job?

 Looking forward to your replies.

 Thanks
