Exeperienced network engineer, what certs should i take next ?

I am network engineer with just over 10 years experience behind me. I previously passed ccnp for route and switch but let it lapse after recerting it a couple of times.
As the market changes i can see the more traditional routing and switching falling off in favour or cloud & automation based skills as well as a strong market focus on cybersec.
I would like to get in to more security focused work (i have decent experience wirth ASA & checkpoint) but am wondering what the best certs and learning would be for me?
I've kind of already committed to the new CCNP Sec and with my background i think i have a bit of head start. What i do wonder though is would I be wise to also look at some vendor nuetral certs, like the comptia stuff etc?
Whilst furloughed i did the AWS cloud practictioner exam as i knew nothing about cloud up to that point but really quite enjoyed.
Would there also be a path i could take that would use my networking skills, my interest in security that could lead to me doing work with cloud tech?
Any suggestions on what certs i should do (and i am quite happy to start with the basics in both cloud and general security) and what i should be looking to learn over the next 12 months or so?

Yeah i definitely need to have a little think about what would be my ideal role and look for what they ask for. I think my view is somewhat coloured by the fact my current job search alerts are set up with cisco as a keyword, maybe i need to broaden that out a bit
