DoD 8570 Security Certs
I have a need to get baseline certified for DoD 8570. Initially, I was thinking about doing the CompTIA Security Plus-it is quick, cheap, etc. The CISSP would get me level 3 certified though and has better long-term viability. I would like to hear anyone's experiences studying for and then taking the tests for either of these certifications. Thank you, Matt
Hi Matt,
I have taken the CISSP. I studied for it by reading all the material I
could get my hands on and where I could, I worked with test engines such as
Transcender, CCCure and the test engine from Wiley Books. Taking the test
was grueling. I requested and received extra time, but my test was like a
big word document with check boxes to choose answers. I had to wait almost
2 weeks to find out my score. I believe I spent about 7 hours on the test
because of the crappiness of the format. I did that 2 years ago, the new
version of the test is supposed to be different but I do not know how it
would be formatted now for us. Despite all of that, I still managed to get
a DoD job.
