I got GICSP 5 years ago when I was actively working in OT/ICS. I have moved towards IT cybersecurity since, so I don’t actively work in OT/ICS cybersecurity anymore. I took a SANS course so I have 36 CPEs to renew GICSP, but I also have to pay the renewal fee of USD 499.

I am still early in my cybersecurity career so there is a chance that I would find myself closer to ICS/OT again, but I cannot say that for certain right now. Considering how expensive SANS certifications are, I would like to assess if renewing now will be cheaper than re-certifying? I would really appreciate your opinions on what I should do, thanks!
