What source says that a 11 years old boy got CISSP? I
think this is only a rumour.
<https://www.isc2.org/cgi-bin/content.cgi?category=1187>:
"Applicants must have a minimum of four years of
direct full-time security professional work experience
in one or more of the ten domains of the (ISC)² CISSP®
CBK®. "
The CISSP is not a proof that you are specialist in a
specific security field (for example, penetration
test), but can demonstrate that you have the broad
expected knowledge for a information security
professional in all the 10 information security
domains: Access Control - Application Security -
Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Planning -
Criptography - Information Security and Risk
Management - Legal, Regulations, Compliance and
Investigations - Operations Security - Physical
(Enviromental) Security - Security Architecture and
Design - Telecomunications and Network Security.
For demonstrate expertise in a specific field, I
agree, you have to look for another certification. I
believe that the certifications offered by SANS are
very good.
But, ISC2 also offer another certifications for
demonstrate deeper knowledge in specific domains:
"For experienced information security professionals
with an (ISC)² credential in good standing, (ISC)²
Concentrations demonstrate their acquired rigorous
knowledge of select CBK® domains. Passing a
concentration examination demonstrates proven
capabilities and subject-matter expertise beyond that
required for the CISSP or SSCP credentials.
CISSP Concentrations
Current Concentrations for CISSPs include the:
ISSAP®, Concentration in Architecture
ISSEP®, Concentration in Engineering
ISSMP®, Concentration in Management
"
(https://www.isc2.org/cgi-bin/content.cgi?category=99)
You have to be a CISSP, before trying get one of
these.
