Answer:
First step is for you to decide which path you want to follow among these general fields: security management, security assurance (i.e., security audit), or technical security, and this last one has many sub fields (e.g., software development, security operation, etc.). Once you have decided this path there are many certifications available for each field (e.g., CISM for security management, CISA for security assurance, and CISSP for overall technical security).
Considering specifically ISO 27001 career you can follow:
- ISO 27001 Lead Implementer – this certification recognizes people who have competency on the ISO 27001 implementation process.
- ISO 27001 Lead Auditor – this certification recognizes people who have competency on auditing an ISMS against ISO 27001 requirements and want to become certification auditors (and with this provides more confidence to an organization for being certified).
