N, Gideon, Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but SANS Institute offers a few certifications that seem to match pretty well.
The first is their GSNA credential: "GIAC Systems and Network Auditing." (Track 7) The second one is "Security Consultant" (Track 13), which covers ISO 17799. Lastly, SANS offers an individual certification called G7799 or "GIAC Certified ISO-17799 Specialist" For the GSNA credential, you must be somewhat technical to pass their 'practical' (research paper) -and it is tough. The Security Consultant track (Track 13) handles the whole gambit of being a consultant (managing finances, presenting to a client, writing contracts, etc...) For more info...

Googling gave me some results on the standard but none on how to be a certified auditor. Also, how does CISA compare with BS7799/ISO 17799? Thanks a bunch!! -N _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it. Charter: http://lists.netsys.com/full-disclosure-charter.html
