My original question was whether a Masters Degree in Information Systems Security and a CCE Certification would qualify me for CISSP or do I need several years experience in the field.
You would, I think, need at least two years field experience. CCE is an approved credential for a one year experience waiver. You can also apply for a one year waiver in respect of a Masters in infosec (or a four year bachelor's course) provided that it's from a U.S. National Center of Academic Excellence in Information Security or regional equivalent, but I think that's it. I don't speak for (ISC)2 though: you could try contacting them direct to see if there's any further room for negotiation.
There were some suggestions as to what I could label as "experience" and how to maybe cut corners. I never asked how to cut corners to get the Cert.
Understood. Hope this helps. -- David Harley CISSP Security Author/Editor/Consultant/Researcher Small Blue-Green World AVIEN Guide to Malware: http://www.smallblue-greenworld.co.uk/pages/avienguide.html Security Bibliography: http://www.smallblue-greenworld.co.uk/pages/bibliography.html
