Hi Femi, Please do go ahead and aggressively pursue the CISSP certification as the starting point. CISSP will expose you to all the domains of security.

The nature of our business requires that we follow PCI standards as per logical security. Here's the thing, the CISO is leaving next month, and I've been told I'll be taking his position. I already have a lot of exposure to info sec, I have a CCNP (the former version with ISCW) and a I'm an MCP (Active Directory for WS 2008). What I need to know is what cert I should go out there and get to make me more cemented in this new CISO role, at least to keep the auditors happy, as they sometimes like to question your competence. The outgoing CISO, even though he was trained by some of our partners, had NO certs, and this exposed him to uncomfy questions from hard nosed auditors. Security+ or CISSP exam? Or any others? Any form of guiding light will be highly appreciated. Regards, Femi M.
