With that said, the most notable Securitycert would have to be CISSP.The CISSP may be useful for Robert's upper-level folks, but it's really more of a management level cert.
Agreed, the CISSP is wide and shallow and management-oriented, the SANS GIAC certs are narrow and deep and engineering-oriented, although they do offer a management-oriented one also. The GSEC that I have is the widest and still fairly deep cert they offer. FYI, of the two, I found the CISSP much easier to pass. I only put it up front because it seems to be more respected, being the oldest of the security certs and now requiring a bachelors degree as a pre-requisite.
