Hi Matt,

Way back on May 9, 2007 I wrote my thoughts about certifications like these down.  The article, called "Certifiable" was published by darkreading:

I am a CISSP with programming experience, static code analysis and web penetration testing.   I am thinking about taking the CSSLP.   I just bought the review book.   Is it worth getting this certification?   Is it going to raise my rates and help me get more contracts?   Is the GIAC better or should I pursue both or neither?   I wrote about the first concept of the CSSLP on my blog.   Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
