Frequently asked questions

What is CISO-as-a-Service?

CISO-as-a-Service, also called a virtual or fractional CISO, gives you access to experienced security leadership on a part-time or advisory basis, without the cost of a full-time executive hire.

How is a vCISO different from hiring a full-time CISO?

A vCISO delivers the same strategic direction and oversight as an in-house CISO, scaled to the time and budget your organization needs, and can be increased or reduced as your program matures.

Can a vCISO support our SOC 2 or ISO 27001 readiness?

Yes. Our vCISOs work directly with our compliance team to set direction on scope, controls and evidence so your readiness program stays on track.

How much time does a vCISO spend with our team?

Engagement scope varies by organization size and goals. We agree on cadence, meeting rhythm and availability upfront so it fits how your team works.
