       CAP (Certification and Accreditation Professional): Jointly developed by the U.S. Department of State’s Office of Information Assurance and (ISC)2, the CAP credential reflects the skills required to assess risk and establish security requirements for complex systems and environments.

      CISSP concentrations

      (ISC)2 has developed follow-on certifications (think accessories) that accompany your CISSP. (ISC)2 calls these certifications concentrations because they represent the three areas you may choose to specialize in:

       ISSAP (Information Systems Security Architecture Professional): Suited for technical systems security architects

       ISSEP (Information Systems Security Engineering Professional): Demonstrates competence for security engineers

       ISSMP (Information Systems Security Management Professional): About security management (of course!)

      All the concentrations require that you first be a CISSP in good standing, and each has a separate exam. Read about these concentrations and their exams on the (ISC)2 website at www.isc2.org/Certifications/CISSP-Concentrations.

      Non-(ISC)2 certifications

      Organizations other than (ISC)2 have security-related certifications, one or more of which may be right for you. None of these certifications competes directly with CISSP, but some of them overlap with CISSP somewhat.

      Nontechnical/nonvendor certifications

      Many other certifications are not tied to specific hardware or software vendors. Some of the best include

       CISA (Certified Information Systems Auditor): Consider this certification if you work as an internal auditor or your organization is subject to one or more security regulations, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, GLBA, or PCI. ISACA manages this certification. Find out more about CISA at www.isaca.org/cisa.

       CISM (Certified Information Security Manager): Similar to (ISC)2’s Information Systems Security Management Professional (ISSMP) certification (which we talk about in the section “CISSP concentrations” earlier in this chapter), you may want the CISM certification if you’re in security management. Like CISA, ISACA manages this certification. Read more about it at www.isaca.org/cism.
