I recently came to know GWAS has been converted to STAR WAS. That means it is not a certification any more. Would STAR WAS still hold the same weight as GWAS? I find hard to believe so.
STAR WAS is a movie, and I think the GWAS were those little guys in the first movie. Not the ewoks. These little guys had guns and seemed to know how to use them to defeat larger opponents in the Tatooine desert. There were also technologically superior to most other races throughout the series, although I don't think they had warp power. The only certifications that hold any weight are CISSP, CISA, and CISM. I always thought the NSA IAM/IEM certifications were also more technically geared to penetration-testing type work.
Is there any alternate Application Security certification?
How about QPASP? Cheers, Andre ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This list is sponsored by: Cenzic Need to secure your web apps NOW?
