Has the great debate regarding the SANS/GIAC certification versus the SSCP
been clarified. Which is more valuable to have for a person to have when
looking for a job in this field. Do most employers look at both, or are
they just more concerned with the CISSP?? IMHO, it should be experience +
CISSP, plus the ability to drive direct management completely bonkers (Hi
Bill S.)
