| Is this exam recognised by Microsoft and is it counted towards the MCSE
2003 Security+ Qualification ?
Is there any benefit doing this one or the MS exam for security ?
Thanks

| Security+ counts towards both MCSA:Security and MCSE:Security.
I'd take the Security+ route, because you get another security-related cert
(and a permanent one, too) under your belt for just roughly $100 more than
what you'd pay to sit for the MS test. Also, Security+ counts as a year of
work-related experience towards another security cert exam's prerequisites,
but I can't remember which off the top of my head.. for some reason I want
to say it's for ISC2's exams.
If I'm not mistaken, Security+ also counts as an elective towards just a
regular MCSA or MCSE.
Alot of people bash CompTIA certs, but apparently Microsoft thinks it's good
enough, so go for Security+ if you can spare the extra $100.
