Virtual CISO as a Service (vCISO)

A cost-effective, subscription-based service for businesses that do not have the budget or requirement for a full time Chief Information Security Officer (CISO)

Our Virtual CISO as a Service provides you with an executive level extension to your organisation’s information security capability. The benefits include trusted decision making and cyber security advice, to ensure governance and regulatory compliance.

Having a vCISO as a Service is a cost-effective alternative to employing a full time CISO. It enables your organisation to gain board-level expertise in the latest cyber security developments in an ever-changing landscape.

Each service delivery will be unique and tailored specifically to meet your business needs. However, common elements include:

  • Executive level security and business advice.

  • Defining your cyber security strategy and goals in collaboration with Executive/Senior Management.

  • Identifying and prioritising business risks and threats

  • Provision of an independent overview of your current risks and cyber security maturity.

What is a vCISO?2025-05-14T00:58:50+01:00

A virtual Chief Information Security Officer provides oversight and strategic leadership in information and cyber security. Our service gives your organisation access to security expertise from a trusted advisor who will work with your team to provide strategic risk management and assurance activities across people, process, and technology.

How can a vCISO help my business?2025-05-14T00:59:02+01:00

In our experience, small and medium organisations do not always have the requirement for a full time CISO but still require strategic leadership across the business to advise on risk and oversee governance and regulatory compliance in relation to information and cyber security.

A vCISO can optimise security plans and move from a tactical position to a more strategic one.
