    Hi,

    I am currently studying for the CISSP as well. One of
    the the pre-requisites for the CISSP is that you have
    3 years of real world experience in at least three of
    the 10 Domains - you may have seen this in some
    other posts already. You also have to sign a "code of
    ethics" which means that you are saying that the
    information you provided is also true and that you will
    not disclose information about the test, and generally
    behave as an ethical security professional. However,
    you are not require to provide information or materials
    as a proof of your experience. If you say you have it
    and you agree to the code of ethics, that is enough.

    I a have also seen a post that stated that you have to
    have 3 years of experience in infosec. I have heard
    otherwise from other CISSPs; if part of your job
    requirements as a sysadmin included infosec that is
    real experience.
