I am a recent graduate with a B.S. in Management Information Security (Systems sorry I have Security on my mind lol). I have always been interested in Information Security, but I understand that I need to get more experience under my belt to reach my goal.
I just had a few questions. Which would be the best route to get into Information Security? Right now I have been offered three options for certification courses:
Package One: A+, Network+, MCP Windows XP Professional, Security+, and CCNA
Package Two: A+, Network+, Security+
Which would be the best value to attempt to get an entry level job in Information Security? I know certifications do not guarantee a job, but it will help in my experience.
My second question would be related to the second. Should I just skip both packages and aim for MCSA (or MCSE?) I see that they both include the Security+ information.
Also if you want to input any more comments about getting into IS for future references would be excellent. Thank you.
