    Hi all
    Hope someone can give me some advice.
    im currently studying my CCNA with the open university and i was going to do the various micrsoft exams to get ent desktop support in win 7 and vista 4 exams i think.
    Now after speaking to my tutor he has said to complete the ccna then do the network security module along with information security management which can lead to the cissp exam, i have already booked the network and security + exams.
    i have got nearly 7 years desktop experience so would like to move to info security.
    Now i want to go where the work and money is so should i go the microsoft route or the security route?

    thanks

    steve

    I think there's good oppertunities in both areas, however, security is hot cake right now I'm doing a fair amount of job searching at the moment and on the network side the security jobs or jobs with security aspects are paying really, really well.
