On a related note,
How helpful are the seminars/"official" books etc? Reading through
the site, it seems like they attempt to charge you at every turn which
can be expensive if your company doesn't sponsor it.
On an unrelated note,
When replying to the various SF lists, is there a way to prevent the
bombardment of Out of Office replies I receive back?

Hi,
Here in Singapore, we have had people getting the CISSP without the
sufficient knowledge and experience acquired for 3 years. Some only have
1 year and they manage to get the CISSP. Many of the so called vendors
has people obtianing the CISSP with only 1 year experience.
Have raised this to CISSP but noone there replies.
I really question the value of this type of certification as there is no
stringent background check on the candidate.

Subject: CISSP without experience
I have a 6 month experience on working professionally in Information
Security, but I have been learning and practicing it in my studies and
now I am looking for a job. Almost all of the jobs require a CISSP, but
you cannot get it without atleast 3 years experience. I did hear that
even without an experience you can pass the CISSP, but you will not get
the certification and then you can go to the employer and tell him that
you passed the CISSP. Anyone have any views or any experience with it?
