Actually, I beg to differ. Never went to a school or training for any of
them but the GSEC. The special 8x12-hour-day SANS conference in D.C. last
year was awesome. You either came out of there scared s___less or with a
head 2 hat-sizes bigger. Anyone who takes it, try to get Eric Cole, a real
brain and great teacher. The course is worth it for anyone in infosec,
whether you want the cert or not.
As for the cert's I prefer getting them from experience vs. boot-camp, more
meaningful to me. As for the easiest, unquestionably the CISSP followed by
the CCDA, also have CCNA which was even easier, but I ran out of room ;) I
just put CISSP first because it seems to be so well respected.
As for the snipes on my unfamiliarity with Swen, I am blushing, but I have
also just finished a month-long security audit for a HIPAA client and have
not kept up like I should have.
