SAP Authorizations consultant - Do I satisfy the work experience for CISSP?

[LoOkkAttMe]

Hello,

I am a SAP Authorizations consultant, with 10 years of working experience.

I am interested in the CISSP certification, but I am a bit confused - does my 10 years of work experience satisfies the required work experience for it?

I mainly manage users and their roles (authorizations), auditing the SAP system and develop the authorizations concept in business processes.

By the way, are there any SAP Authorizations consultants here who obtained the CISSP?

 you The CISSP requires experience to be shown in two of the domains.

From my understanding of SAP Administration, you should be able to demonstrate experience in Domain 2 - Asset Security as well as Domain 5 - Identity and Access Management.  Going out on a limb but you could probably claim some experience in Domain 7.

Here is a breakdown (high level ) of the domains and what they include (remember this is to be used as a guideline)

Thanks for the answer, but how can I be sure? I don't know other SAP sec and auth consultants which have CISSP certification?

What I suggest that everyone do is to print off the exam objectives (ISC2 calls it an exam outline). Go through, and note your relevant experience. This will help you better understand if you are qualified. It will also help you when documenting your experience on your endorsement because is right there. I also suggest keeping a copy with you to help keep you focused and better able to identify knowledge gaps. Other suggestions, consider doing the CC first while the self-study training and exam voucher are no cost for most. It is the general knowledge that need as a CISSP (no analytical questions). I believe that it reduces a lot of the stress of taking an ISC2 exam. While it is a linear exam, it is still one and done on questions, no review later. So it is good practice for that. Also small victories are good. Best wishes.
