I took and passed the CISSP during the initial 3 years in of my Sec+. Is it even worth paying the $150 to CompTIA to renew my membership? I know the CISSP covers it from a CE perspective, but not $$$

You have a good point. I do support the government and know how they are with certifications.

No. If you have the CISSP you are inherently more qualified.

See link above people.

In Federal CISSP trumps Sec +. It is an IAT Level III certification, Sec + is IAT Level II. https://images.app.goo.gl/EB73rVWSEDqYhiV97

Totally understand that... my question was more around whether it’s even value-add to keep paying CompTIA to maintain my membership/very with them if I’m already in with ISC2 (my CISSP).
