Just passed the CISSP with a mid-term (3-5 years) goal of moving into an ISSM-like or Cyber Risk role. I also have a PMP and various other certs and non-technical degrees. Any advice on what’s next?

Tbh once you have CISSP for this field there is no much point to accumulating more certs. I suggest you look to NIST/ISO framework and learn more of difference focus areas (end point, encryption, PCI, etc.)

Started a new job 7 months ago. There’s been a hiring freeze and it seems they canned the recruitment team. Things seems to be slowing down drastically in the span of a week.
