CISSP Associate Salary
Hello everyone,
I’m wondering if anyone is familiar with salary ranges after becoming a CISSP associate.
I started at $80k out of college and was able to pass the CISSP exam 6 months in. 10 months in, I got a 2% raise. Pretty much living in a HCOL. I only have 10 months of experience in cybersecurity.
I’m interested in seeing if this is a fair salary considering the amount of experience I have, or, if I’m missing out.
