Response (Virgil Vaduva): "..Being bitter or jealous about failed exams will not help your career, and honestly you should put the time into studying the material, understanding the (ISC)2 approach to security and focusing on security from that perspective..." -- Robert Święcki _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
