Good Info!
I tried following the link for those new Specialist certs on Cisco's site,
but the link is broken - are Specialists defined now by completing only the
individual exams? (CSPFA for Firewall, CSVPN for VPN, and CSIDS for IDS)

The CCSP is basically just a realignment of the current Cisco Security
Specialist 1 certification into the Cisco Professional track. It does add
one more exam to the requirements but other than that no real change. Cisco
has even 'generously' allowed current CSS1s to take the remaining exam to
get the cert. :-)
As for the new specialist level certs, they are just dumbed down
^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H more focussed variations of the CSS1.
I really dont think Cisco have thought this one through as anyone who
attains CCSP (with the current versions of the exams), will also
automatically get three specialist level certs. In my opinion this totally
devalues the specialist level certs. They should be something that takes
specific specialised skill and knowledge to attain, not something you get
for free as part of the process of attaining an intermediate level
professional qualification.
