Re: The 3 year requirement: I think it's a good idea. The IT world has
become so certification conscious that many people are simply collecting
certifications like a stamp collector collects stamps. I don't know if
it's the intent of the 3-year rule to mitigate this tendency or not, but if
it were adhered to (and it's not) it would go a long way towards ensuring
that the candidate was serious about Information Security. Just my $0.02
worth, and worth every cent of it!! ;-)
