Applicants must have a minimum of FOUR years of direct full-time security
professional work experience in one or more of the ten domains of the (ISC)²
CISSP® CBK®. As well as pass the test, you will have to get an endorsement
from another CISSP or someone else qualified to certify that you do have
sufficient experience.
Waiver of Experience:
If certain circumstances apply and with appropriate documentation, candidates
are eligible to waive a maximum of two years of professional experience as
follows:
* One-year waiver of the professional experience requirement for
education.
Candidates can substitute a maximum of one year of direct full-time
security professional work experience described above if they have a four-year
college degree OR a Master's Degree in information security from a U.S.
National Center of Academic Excellence in Information Security (CAEIAE) or
regional equivalent. If you hold both a four-year degree and a Master's degree,
you may only apply for a one-year waiver of experience.
* One-year waiver of the professional experience requirement for holding
an additional credential on the (ISC)²-approved list

Hi,
As far as eligibility for the CISSP exam goes you need to have a minimum of 2
years of exp in any one of the 10 domains of the exam. If you have that your
eligible and also if you do hold a Masters Degree that compensates for 1 year.
You say that you have SAP exp whats that in development or functional if its
development then you fit the Application and System Development Domain.
Well for more information on that you can visit the site https://www.isc2.org
where you will find all the information you need.
Regards,
Khalid.

Hello
I am new to this group. I would be grateful if someone could tell
me if I would be eligible to take the CISSP exam.
My experience in IT has been in the area of SAP R/3(around 5
years).... I also have performed audit in the same area. I am
interested in pursuing the CISSP certification, but first was
wondering whether I would be eligible to take it up in the first place.
awaiting your inputs.
regards,
Hemal
