Journey Thread -- BS Cybersecurity

[quigongene]

The misc 11 credits are the free ones from TEEX, Sophia, NFA and the Ethics (CPCU) credits. The CISSP is worth 16 credits, BUT, it only covers 3 of the topics in the UL areas, so you still need a ton of UL credits.

Fundamentals of Network Security, Fundamentals of Infosec, and Network and Data Communications are covered. The following, however, are not:

Legal Issues in Infosec
Managing Risk in Infosec
Security Policies and Implementation
Auditing IT Infrastructure for Compliance
Systems Forensics, Investigations and Response
Hacker Techniques, Tools and Incident Handling
Security Strategies for Web Apps
Security Strategies for Linux
Cyberwarfare or Security Strategies for Windows

For a total of 9 classes I'd have to take via COSC (pricey), PLA out of (not as bad, but still expensive) or find alternate sources of credit for. This is why I'm considering a school in my state (even if I need to take 10 classes there) or WGU/Hodges.

Also, to answer your question, I sent my JST transcripts and CISSP documentation. COSC gave me an unofficial transcript that covered 38 credit hours. This was before I started knocking down CLEPs and Study.com.
