Check out My Profile for a list of a few of them. CISA, CHFI, CISSP, CysA+ there's a bunch. :)

 

Also When did we stop using "Tiger Team" and start using " Red Team"???? o.0

 

I did check your profile and thanks for the insight given. How do you find your job as an IT Security Professional? It would be nice if you could share some knowledge how jobs in this sector works.

I do understand that CyberSec_ET is no longer participating this thread, but the main intention behind this question is that someone who is in this field and working with the industry might stumble on this thread and could help me answer this question.

The Russians appear to be better than the Yanks at the moment. Ha! Ha!

 

I would agree that knowledge is useful but, once you have that, a vivid imagination would be a definate asset.

 

They can only teach you "Yesterdays" knowledge ~ As a hacker, Ethical or otherwise, that's not much use
