Currently I should be finishing up my MCSE 2k3 with Messaging and Security in the next few months, and I would really like to go after some specialized certs that could really help me. I'm currently interested in...
GIAC (http://www.giac.org/certifications/)
Nortel certs (http://app97.nortelnetworks.com/cgi-bin/teds/cs/maintc.jsp?level=0&category=12&subcategory=)
Juniper (http://www.juniper.net/training/certification/)
CISSP: (Certified Information Systems Security Professional)
CWNA: (Certified Wireless Network Administrator)
CEH: (Certified Ethical Hacker)
CHFI: (Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator)
CNDA: (Certified Network Defense Architect)
SSCP: (Systems Security Certified Practitioner)
CCSPA: (Check Point Certified Security Principles Associate)
CCSA: (Check Point Certified Security Administrator NGX)
I am leaning more towards the Security/Penetration (hacking) side of things. So if anyone could give me a real world opinion on these certs, and what learning/job health benefits it would be greatly appreciated.
