Naive question from an outsider with an interest in understanding pentesting and information security (mostly out of curiosity, but also to contribute to projects with security in mind): do you think putting time into a cert like OSCP is worth it? Not arguing about any kind of market or resume worth, but more so about the actual value provided by the path to complete that cert.
