    anything GIAC
    OSCP
    probably a bunch of vendor-specific networking certs that I don't know about

    everything else is compliance regulatory capture trash (CompTIA via DoD) or just irrelevant

      >OSCP

      Anything that fulfills that us dod baseline security requirement, I think like sec+ and a bunch of others work.
      CISSP and OSCP for cyberfags. CCNA or whatever vendor equivalent for network admins. The rest are mostly useless. I guess the real basic a+ type certs are good if your just trying to get into a helpdesk job for the first time.

      >OSCP
      Either of you have a suggestion for a study course for the OSCP?

        You get access to the PWK (which is the OSCP prep course) when you enroll for the exam. I'm taking it right now and it's a bunch of walkthroughs and exercises to learn the tools and methodology along with the lab environment that is basically a bunch of hack-the-box style machines. Haven't taken the exam yet but it seems like everything you need is in the PWK course.

      Only the RHCA (Red Hat Certified Administrator) is worth it from what I've seen. Lot of banks run on it.

      Gov and most big companies will request your code to verify with the issuer just like degrees. You'll get caught and blacklisted, not worth it.

      none of them. the cert market is just another classic israelite racket. only get certs if your employer pays for them or do as anon here said.

    AWS is the 21st century equivalent of a Microsoft cert. If you work with AWS you're just a dumb nagger that doesn't understand computers
