Episode 012 – InfoSec Certifications with Kim Crawley
I speak with Kim Crawley about her recent article in Cylance, Security Certifications You Should Consider Getting, and about certifications in InfoSec in general.
Certifications. We either love them or hate them, but we cannot deny that they are needed. Either to prove a set of skills, prove the ability to memorize facts and take tests, or to prove that our egos are bigger than our peers, there are lots of opinions on certifications. This week Kim Crawley joins me to talk about a recent article she has written for Cylance, Security Certifications You Should Consider Getting. We discuss what certifications are good for, our opinions on them, HR managers, and where you can find resources to help you study. Some links of interest:
