Perhaps you are thinking about the next step in your security career or the general trajectory of where you’d like to see yourself in a few years. Or, perhaps you’re curious about how your title compares with your peers in other sectors. Maybe you are overwhelmed by the breadth and variety of security job titles, and you struggle to understand which role is actually the senior-most security role within an organization.
In this industry, the level of variance among job titles for security executives is overwhelming. At a small company or within certain sectors, the top-level security executive may be a senior manager or manager. At some companies, a director may have more seniority than a vice president.
