I’ve been doing internal audits including IT audits, business process/operational audits, and SOX controls for almost 10 years and am currently a director. Recently I’ve been exposed to a lot of cybersecurity related internal audits and I’m considering making a switch to cyber. What’s the typical career path and salary range for cyber professionals? And is the CISSP certification difficult to obtain?

It totally depends on your area of expertise, but it sounds like you’d most closely align with Cyber GRC. The CISSP exam is difficult (harder than CISA) but doable.

Hi all,

I have cleared all the interviews for Walmart and salary negotiations are also done.

Am I getting rejected or is it normal to be on hold without any update for a month at this stage?

What do y’all think about this plan?
