Anyone take the CISM here? Wondering how hard the exam was and if you passed, what was your study approach? Also in your opinion is it worth getting it over the CISSP if you're focus isn't technical?

Yes, the bonus is the same as for any other cert. CISM is good, but if you could, go for CISSP. Much better recognized!

I have both. CISSP caries the most weight. Some folks tell me they haven’t even heard of CISM
