I think the 401 does have a lot of information, and the 501, even better. I went straight to the IDS class cuz thats what I focus on. Now I am debating on whether to take the 560 before the Incident Handling. Thanks for the advice on the assessment, im gonna check that out. __________________________________ Albert R.

I was considering the same thing, as I've done the 560 GPEN class and thought that the 401 would be a little on the basic side. Although I'm sure there is still a lot there to learn. If you want a baseline then check out *https://portal.sans.org/**assessment*you can logon with your portal account and do an assessment test for the 401 class. If you get 45/50 then they suggest you challenge the exam. I scraped 45, so I might challenge sometime in the next 6 months. Hope this helps Chris John Riley pauldotcom-bounces at mail.pauldotcom.com@inet wrote on 27.01.2009 15:51:28:So I am trying to figure out if is should be focusing on security 401 or501(challenge 401?). I am fairly well versed in most of the areas it covers according to theoverview.I am concerned that if I spend the money and take it, it'll be a review. Looking at 501 --> I do think it would be a challenge (obviously) but it doesn't look terribly over my head. Trouble is I have no baseline -- and want some more information. Any suggestions folks ? _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom at mail.pauldotcom.com http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com---------------------------------------- Raiffeisen Informatik GmbH, Firmenbuchnr. 88239p, Handelsgericht Wien, DVR 0486809, UID ATU 16351908 Der Austausch von Nachrichten mit oben angefuehrtem Absender via E-Mail dient ausschliesslich Informationszwecken.
