vCISO Services (Virtual Chief Information Security Officer)

Risk Assurance & Advisory

An on-demand vCISO is critical to protecting your sensitive data and keeping your cybersecurity strategy on track and in your budget.

Flexible Spending

It’s hard to find and keep good security professionals, and many growing businesses can’t justify hiring a full-time CISO. But you expose your organization to risks such as ransomware or phishing attacks when these positions go unfilled. An outside vCISO can assess your security posture, look at policies and procedures and ensure your strategy and tools protect you.

Protect Sensitive Data

Pinpointing vulnerabilities is hard. Developing a strong data protection program typically starts with a security assessment to find weaknesses, then leverages expert guidance to address process, procedure and technology gaps. With a knowledgeable vCISO who understands your industry, you can implement and drive a security strategy that protects your sensitive data for the long term.
