Who it’s for

When a vCISO makes sense

You need someone accountable for security, but not necessarily a full-time executive.

  • No one owns security strategy today
  • Your board, customers or insurer are asking hard security questions
  • You manage more than one compliance framework
  • You’re recovering from an incident or a failed assessment

FAQ

Common questions

How is a vCISO different from our MSP?

Your MSP runs your systems. A vCISO sets security strategy, owns risk decisions and holds everyone, including the MSP, to the plan.

How much time does a vCISO spend with us?

It depends on your plan. Most engagements are a set number of hours a month, plus availability when something urgent comes up.

Can our vCISO sign our CMMC affirmation?

The affirmation comes from a senior official at your company. Your vCISO prepares them to make it with confidence.
