I believe that IT should provide 2 primary functions:

  • Provide service and value to enable the business.
  • Protect the business by effectively reducing risk.

Security is a very important part of a business' IT strategy. That is my motivation for taking the CISSP.

Also a lot of positions become readily available if you've gotten your CISSP.
