SSCP exam work requirement - does SAP Authorizations consultant counts?

LoOkkAttMe — Sat, 06 Jul 2024 19:52:13 GMT

Hi,

I am willing to do the SSCP exam to develop my skills in the IT security area.

Since there is work experience requirement - does SAP Authorizations consultant counts as valid experience?

I have 9 years of experience in SAP Authorizations which I believe falls under the Access Control domain at least. (I also have B.sc. in Computer Science).

Also, how does ISC2 validate my work experience?

Based on the Exam outline, the experience should qualify under Domain One and potentially Domain 2.

I dont see the live chat button either. Maybe @mariatirado could forward a note to someone to determine what happened to the button.

Hey @mariatirado , I sent a mail 2 days ago but still no answer, just want to be sure if my experience as SAP Security consultant is relevant for SSCP work-experience requirements?
