It depends on what your goals are.

I have a BS in CS (I also think that sounds funny to say) and  
debating a Masters of some type.  But I'm not sure if I want to  
spend the cash for the MS after dropping a ton on the BS.  One of my  
father-in-law's professors said this about the degree chain:

BS - self explanatory
MS - More of the Same
PhD - Piled Higher Deeper

I keep wondering about that as I look on the return I have had on  
the BS for the cost.  Perhaps it will open some doors for me later.   
We shall see.

I also have a CS degree and am working on an MBA.  The difference  
might be that I am not in infosec - but a software developer.

Though I am learning a lot about business and enjoying myself, I am  
also not so sure about it either.  It seems like a lot of the things  
are busy work BUT I know this is the only way, besides internal  
promotion, that you will be able to get to a management decision.

I really would like to manage, because I think I could make the  
biggest difference in the organization in such a role.
