Cloud+ or Linux+
I just got my Security+ and I want to start on my next certification. Either would work well for my career. I was wondering which would be more valuable if I changed jobs and which is easier? If you have any other info on these..it might help make my decision. Thanks

What area of IT security do you want to work in? Cloud, networking, policy, risk management, operations, general InfoSec, etc.?

I did Linux+ 14 years ago, it helped me start my career. However, if I had the same decision, I would go to either to LPI or Red Hat for Linux certification.

But if not then agree with what others have said about vendor-specific certs instead of either the Linux+ or Cloud+.
Like Steve L stated I got the trifecta years ago..... I wish I would of focused on one certification like the CCNA, MCSA or something like that back then, ~10 years ago.......
Just the CCNA alone has helped evolve friends and co workers careers from my circle.
