Get executive-level security leadership on a fractional basis — strategy, risk, compliance, and incident readiness — without the cost or the year-long search for a full-time CISO.
Book a consultation All servicesA virtual CISO (vCISO) is an experienced security executive who leads your program on a part-time, ongoing basis. You get CISO-level judgment — strategy, risk decisions, compliance direction, and board-ready reporting — sized and priced for an organization that isn't ready for a full-time hire.
Our vCISO engagements are led by a veteran security leader with 20+ years across higher education, healthcare, and enterprise IT, so you get seasoned leadership from day one instead of a checklist.
We set the direction — a prioritized, quarter-by-quarter security roadmap tied to your real risks and business goals.
We own the risk register and guide you through frameworks like ISO 27001, NIST, and HIPAA — mapping controls to what your customers and regulators require.
We stand up the policies, processes, and monitoring your program is missing, and coordinate the vendors and internal teams to run them.
We translate security into language leadership and customers understand — status, risk, and progress they can act on.
A vCISO sets your security strategy, manages risk, guides compliance, oversees your security program and vendors, prepares you for audits and customer questionnaires, and reports to leadership — the same responsibilities as a full-time CISO, on a fractional basis.
A full-time CISO is a senior executive salary plus benefits. A vCISO gives you the same caliber of leadership for a fraction of that, scaled to the hours you actually need.
It varies with your size and goals — some clients need a few hours a week to steer the program, others need more during an audit push or after an incident. We right-size it and adjust as you grow.
Common triggers are a big customer requiring security proof, a new compliance obligation (ISO 27001, HIPAA, SOC 2), rapid growth, or an incident that made clear no one owns security.
Bring a seasoned virtual CISO to your organization — strategy, risk, and compliance leadership that meets you where you are.
