I'd hate to sound "cisspish", but looks like I am behind the times here.
Does the above mean  that security is _only_ about writing exploits?

I do sometimes poke fun at various less enlightened CISSPs for all the
trivia they have to remember, but what is wrong with writing a technical
paper (or event a "paper", as Dave put it) on, say, forensics or intrusion
detection and getting certified for it?
