PostHeaderIcon CISSP certification endorsement?

Hi all,

not sure if anyone is familiar with this certification. I’m about to begin studies for about 6 months for this cert. I know after you pass you need to be endorsed by a Cissp. I have a former military/close friend who just got his cissp last year. I’m wondering if I could use him after I pass or is there some other cissp I’d have to use for endorsement.

thanks

The (ISC)² certified professional is anyone who:

* Is able to attest to the candidate’s professional experience
* Is an active (ISC)² credential holder in good standing

ISC2 defines good standing as:

* Abide by the (ISC)² Code of Ethics;
* Submit Annual Maintenance Fees (AMFs) upon receipt of annual invoices; and,
* Obtain and submit the required Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits.

PostHeaderIcon which security certification is best for M.Tech (information security) student as a beginner towards CISSP?

i have completed B.Tech( comp.sc) and now I am M.Tech (information security) final year student so where i begin my security certification for which certification is good for me , because CISSP required 4 year work ex , so which certification is not required any experience ?

There are several security certifications out there. The problem is, information security is a huge field. there are multiple specialties inside of it. CISSP is a great management level certification, but isn’t for someone who is fresh into the field.

What is it you want to do?
Do you want to penetration test systems (ethical hacking)? Here are some certs for those:
GPEN
OSCP
CEH

Do you want to work on Cisco Systems hardware as a security engineer? Here are some for that:
CCNA: Security
CCSP
CCIE: Security

Juniper even has their own security certification:
JNCIA SEC

The easiest and most vendor neutral test is CompTIA’s Security+. It is about the best general security cert you’re going to get for an entry level person. SSCP is also a good one. It requires one year work experience however. It is given by the same people who give out CISSP.

SANS certifications hold a lot of water in the world, but they are actually expensive to get. You may want to look into those if you have some money to burn (https://www.sans.org).

There are many many certs out there, but you need to figure out what you want to do.

Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
The Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002 (”FISMA”, 44 U.S.C. § 3541, et seq.) is a United States federal law enacted in 2002 as Title III of the E-Government Act of 2002 (Pub.L. 107-347, 116 Stat. 2899). The act recognized the importance of information security to the economic and national security interests of the United States.[1] The act requires each federal agency to develop, document, and implement an agency-wide program to provide information security for the information and information systems that support the operations and assets of the agency, including those provided or managed by another agency, contractor, or other source.[1]

FISMA has brought attention within the federal government to cybersecurity and explicitly emphasized a “risk-based policy for cost-effective security”.[1] FISMA requires agency program officials, chief information officers, and inspectors general (IGs) to conduct annual reviews of the agencys information security program and report the results to Office of Management and Budget (OMB). OMB uses this data to assist in its oversight responsibilities and to prepare this annual report to Congress on agency compliance with the act.[2] In FY 2008, federal agencies spent $6.2 billion securing the governments total information technology investment of approximately $68 billion or about 9.2 percent of the total information technology portfolio.[3]

Implementation of FISMA
In accordance with FISMA, NIST is responsible for developing standards, guidelines, and associated methods and techniques for providing adequate information security for all agency operations and assets, excluding national security systems. NIST works closely with federal agencies to improve their understanding and implementation of FISMA to protect their information and information systems and publishes standards and guidelines which provide the foundation for strong information security programs at agencies. NIST performs its statutory responsibilities through the Computer Security Division of the Information Technology Laboratory.[4] NIST develops standards, metrics, tests, and validation programs to promote, measure, and validate the security in information systems and services. NIST hosts the following:

FISMA implementation project[5]
Information Security Automation Program (ISAP) * National Vulnerability Database (NVD) the U.S. government content repository for ISAP and SCAP. NVD is the U.S. government repository of standards based vulnerability management data. This data enables automation of vulnerability management, security measurement, and compliance (e.g., FISMA)[6]

PostHeaderIcon what college major is for CISSP?

hello ,
I wanna be Network security that deffense hacker, CISSP
but, i dont know what major do i have to choose
i’m in community college , i wanna transfer to UCLA
and, if you know something about good university for CISSP
tell me what is good
please answer :)
thank you , and one more question
is it ok with major of computer science?
or do i have to look for internet/network security?
both of internet security and network security are samething. right?
i found ‘Computer Information Systems – BS’
is it collect ?

First off, good luck in the information security field. It is a big area and is constantly growing and changing. Before you go shooting for the CISSP, you need to have some experience, namely five years and a CISSP to sponsor you for the exam. As far as degrees go, you should look for a network/information security major. Good luck.
