I would like to point out that the certification is valid for only 2
years.  I don't necessarily know if it is worth the 500 (125 an exam
* 4 exams) to have recertify every 2 years.  Additionally, you say
you know about sans, I would say either the sans firewall or ids cert
are much more respected then cisco's equivalent exams.  Finally I
don't really even see cisco ids out there that much in production so
I didn't feel much of a need to pass an exam on it.

Just my thoughts,

If you want to get into security try a vendor neutral cert like sans,
cissp, or SSCP.

Cheers,

Leon

Has anyone taken the exams for Cisco Security Specialist 1??  How
good are 
they?  Is it worth the time and money?  I'm a CCNA and looking to add
on 
security related certs.  Already know about SANS certs.

thanks
