- austincheney 5y agoThat’s because you are a developer and not a security manager.

- bawolff 5y agoCISSP has a somewhat positive reputation, but lots of the other certs are basically negative signal on a resume. There's lots of different types of security stuff. If you're interested in the more risk management corporate side, looking at study material for certs like CISSP can be useful (but use it as a starting point of things to learn, dont follow blindly). If you want to learn crypto, that's not the path i would reccomend.
- austincheney 5y agoThe software industry does not value certifications... at all. The networking and security industries, on the other hand, require them. Attaining those jobs/skills from the perspective of writing software is the surest way to waste your time and accomplish nothing.
- mhluongo 5y agoThe ask was "secure engineering", yeah? The auditors and pentesters we hire have never presented me with their certificates ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ > That’s because you are a developer and not a security manager These days, I'm neither.. but I am a founder in a security-critical space.
