Maintaining CISSP

Hi,

I need to submit CPE for my CISSP. I have recently passed CISM, can someone help telling me on how much CPE I can
quote while 'self studing'/ achieved CISM? Is there a criteria?

ISC2 says "If you have done preparation work to obtain another professional certification, which is not a
certification from (ISC)²® and if this other certification is one in which you have increased your
knowledge-base, then you are entitled to CPE credits for the preparation or self-study work you did to
achieve this other certification."

Re: Maintaining CISSP

CPE credit is 1hr = 1CPE

So for every clock-hour you spent you can claim one CPE credit

Re: Maintaining CISSP

Probably a good idea to talk to (ISC)^2 directly, but the general rule is report the time you actually spent
learning at 1:1 under class a, multi domain, web / self study...  Hang onto the books / web addresses you were using.

I showed the above to my vpn provider (in Europe) and his reply follows:

"Hello!

Unfortunately the author of the article has very confused ideas about the Netherlands, Switzerland and Sweden.

In NL data retention applies to Internet Service Providers that bring connection to the end-user, and
applies for 6 
months, not 2 years, a shorter period than Switzerland."

Give your advice, pls!

Hello guys!

Im a guy whose duties are doing a lot of security stuff; stuff like
scanning for vulns at our entire infraestructure (mainly pcs and
servers) and web apps, also some pentesting work, checking vulns on
changes made on web apps, and of course, a lot of reports and so on..
My boss wants me for administer an IPS. At this point I'm not pretty
sure. I have a personal lab based on virtual machines including an IDS
and some virtual PC's with different OS's on it.. The size of log
recorded for the virtualized IDS in my lab its very insignificant
rather than IPS real world. I just checked out the event log and there
are millions of records...naturally. All info recorded into log Is not
unknow to me, but the management is my concern, I'm already reading
IPS manuals, but how to deal with hundreds and hundreds of records
classified as attacks, web:bots and so on???? I love challenges, no
doubt...and this is a big one. Definitively I could do it, but I just
I need somebody show me the path, the rest I will do.
with no doubt, I see this as a big chance to give a higher step in my
knwoledge..

what is your best advice?

thank you all you guys and have a nice weekend ahead!
