I am looking to get security certified. Does anyone here know if a CCSP (Cisco) security cert is more or less marketable to potential employers than a vendor-neutral (CISSP) cert? Both will cost me about as much to attain, but I am already halfway there, working on my CCIE.

Thoughts?

Hey! I am also a Security Specialist. 5 years in the military, security clearance, working on Sec +, Net +, CCNA, CCNP, CCSP, CEH and then my CISSP. If you already have most of cisco why not get both! The CISSP IS a great cert to have, but do you have all the requirements to take the test? I also think that if you really had to choose and you have all the requirements, you should go with the CISSP. I am not going to chose, I want both. How is going with the CCIE? I really just don't have the time for that one!

CISSP has some specialist, only 3 but...some.  Also CISSPs make more than CCIEs.
