With a shortage of trained professionals, recruiting a dedicated security expert with the knowledge and leadership required to prepare and execute a successful cyber-security strategy is time-consuming, expensive, and often simply not viable. Virtual CISO (vCISO) is a part-time Chief Information Security Officer, in charge of implementing security strategy for the company. This option is a cost-effective alternative to hiring full-time CISOs to manage an organization’s security.

 

The virtual CISO (Chief Information Security Officer) service enables your business to call upon a highly qualified and experienced security professional to formulate optimal security strategy when required to ensure your company is acting in accordance with compliance guidelines such as ISO 27001, SOC2, HIPPA, GDRP, NESA, DIFC DPL, ADSIC, ISR or PCI-DSS.

​

By acting as an extension of your in-house team members, combined with an understanding of your business and strategy, the vCISO helps you assess security risks, threat landscape, incident response, review and govern company policies and procedures, and ensure controls are in place to demonstrate your information security program meets compliance to industry standards. It helps organizations hire security teams on-demand to do long-term strategic planning.
