CISM®

The Certified Information Security Manager (CISM®) certification is a unique management focused certification that has been earned by over 7,000 professionals since its introduction in 2003.  Unlike other security certifications, CISM is for the individual who manages, designs, oversees and assesses an enterprise's information security program.  CISM defines the core competencies and international performance standards that those who have information security management responsibilities must master.

For more details see the certification section on the main ISACA site.
