vCISO Services

A virtual CISO (vCISO) is an outsourced cybersecurity executive who provides strategic security leadership on a part-time or contract basis. They perform the same duties as a traditional CISO, such as developing security strategy, managing risk, and ensuring compliance, but are more cost-effective and flexible than hiring a full-time executive. vCISOs are especially valuable for small to medium-sized businesses that cannot justify a full-time hire.
