Well, I'm certainly not preparing to take the test. Just learned of
the whole thing today. I'm simply curios what the test outline is.
ISC2 lists the "10 domains of the common body of knowledge", but I
still have no understanding of what is actually on the test. For
instance, "Cryptography" is listed as a required domain of knowledge.
But what _about_ cryptography? Setting up an SSL server with cert is
one thing. Rattling off the detailed inner workings Blowfish would be
another.
