Background: 5+ years of work experience in worked on IT Audits (SOX). CISA certified.
Looking for a certification that can help me transition into more technical areas such as Data Privacy/Cyber (not Pentesting)/ Cloud security.
Completely baffled by the variety of certifications
(CCSK, SSCP, PMP, CIPT, CIPP/E, CAP, CISM, etc) out there and not sure which one to pick given my experience and the areas I want to transition into.

Any suggestions on which certification would be best?

CCSK and CCSP will help you for more cloud security audit.
PMP will be of no use!
