To qualify for the CISSP certification one needs to have say 5-10 years of industry experience thats what the website says. So If I do not have any experience but I want to get into the security industry as a fresher or at least attain a few certification to prove my worth what path should I take... Can or should I go for the EC-Council CEH (Certified ethical hacker) certification ? Any tips from anyone in the security industry is much appreciated. Thanks
Ask your local whitehats for advice. Bonus points if you can get to a meetup and start making connections.<p>I am pretty sure that making positive associations with local white hats will be more likely to get you your first security job than a certification will.
