Unfortunately, many organizations struggle to find or can't afford top-tier dedicated CISOs, leading them to settle for less qualified candidates or turn to virtual CISOs (vCISOs) for assistance. However, many vCISOs have their own limitations:
- They lack a repeatable approach that assesses and matures the system of controls over time.
- They do not possess deep, specialized knowledge of your specific systems.
- They are not tightly integrated with your organization's culture and operations.
VoSec has a different approach. We provide the skills, experience, and frameworks to develop your programs, TTPs (tools, techniques, practices), and your people.
The outcome is not an expensive hire, but a highly effective function that is a natural part of your operations.
- Lower Cost
- Extensive Industry Knowledge and Skill
- Limited Turnover
