Virtual CISO Service
Trusted Cyber Security Experts
25+ Years Industry Experience
Ethical, Professional & Pragmatic
Our Virtual CISO (vCISO) service provides your organisation with the on-demand expertise of a senior-level cyber security professional to manage and strengthen your organisation’s security posture.
In today’s digital landscape, where cyber threats are increasingly complex and persistent, a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) plays a pivotal role in managing an organisation’s information security risks. A CISO is responsible for developing, implementing and managing a comprehensive cybersecurity framework, which includes policies, procedures, and technical controls to safeguard against data breaches, cyber-attacks, and compliance failures.
A Virtual CISO (vCISO) service provides access to senior-level security expertise for organisations that may not have the resources to recruit a full-time CISO or that only need CISO-level guidance periodically. By engaging SecureTeam’s Virtual CISO (vCISO) service, you can benefit from this expertise during critical projects, such as implementing new security protocols, responding to security incidents, or preparing for regulatory audits, without the costs of a permanent CISO role.
Furthermore, our Virtual CISO (vCISO) service empowers your organisation with a fresh, external perspective to your organisation’s security posture, which can be particularly valuable in identifying overlooked vulnerabilities or optimising existing security measures.
Expert Virtual CISO (vCISO) Services
Our Virtual CISO (vCISO) service provides your organisation with the expertise of a senior-level security professional on a part-time or on-demand basis. Instead of hiring a full-time CISO, which can be costly and challenging, you can engage our expert vCISO services to oversee your cybersecurity strategy, governance, and risk management efforts. Our Virtual CISO service is carefully tailored to your organisation’s specific needs, providing you with the flexibility to scale up or down depending on your organisation’s cybersecurity requirements and budget constraints.
Here are just some of the ways in which our Virtual CISO (vCISO) service could help your organisation manage your cyber security objectives more effectively:
Board-Level Cyber Advisor
Ensuring your board members understand your organisation's security posture and how it may be affected by the latest vulnerabilities, cyber threats and legislation is crucial. Your vCISO will be on hand to offer them advice and guidance.
Vulnerability Management
Keeping track of your current vulnerabilities is key to reducing the possibility of your infrastructure being compromised. Your vCISO will review your penetration test and VA scan reports and form a robust remediation plan.
Cyber Strategy Development
Your vCISO can help you develop a cohesive cyber strategy that encompasses your business direction and objectives. This ensures that as your organisation evolves - so does your organisation's resilience to cyber attacks.
Supplier Risk Assessment
Conducting risk assessments on your suppliers is crucial in quantifying and reducing your supply-chain risk profile. Our vCISO service provides you with a robust process to ensure your suppliers aren't introducing risks to your data.
Policy Creation & Review
Establishing and maintaining a robust policy framework provides a foundation to your organisation's technical and procedural controls. We'll make sure your security policies are up to date and applied throughout your organisation.
Incident Response Management
Responding quickly and effectively to a security incident is absolutely crucial in safeguarding your data and reputation. In the event of a security breach, your assigned vCISO will be on-hand, to ensure your assets stay protected.
Internal Security Audits
Performing regular security audits within your organisation is key to ensuring your people, policies and processes are effective at reducing your cyber risks. Your vCISO can do this and help you identify tangible improvements.
Compliance Management
Ensuring your organisation remains compliant with standards like ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials and CAF is a full-time job. A vCISO can make sure your organisation is compliant and prepared for any changes in relevent legislation.
External Audit Support
If your organisation ever undergoes an ISO 27001 audit or a 3rd party audit, your assigned vCISO will ensure your organisation is fully-prepared and will represent your organisation to ensure the audit goes smoothly.
