What is Virtual CISO?
Instead of hiring a CISO within the permanent cadre, work with a Cyber Security advisory firm to dedicate a senior resource to lead the organization information security.
Why Virtual CISO?
Some of the key skill sets, capabilities and experiences of CISO is specialized and it does not make sense to invest for capability if the organization footprint is not comparably large. Moreover, single person only looking into one technology landscape within a single organization might not hold the exposure to lead with correct decisions as Cybersecurity space dynamic. Therefore, outsourcing the role with an experienced individual from reputed firm is a sound option.
