CISOaaS
(CISO as a Service)
What is the CISOaaS?
Our CISO as a Service (CISOaaS) offers executive-level cyber security leadership without the need for a full-time Chief Information Security Officer. We provide strategic oversight, policy development, and hands-on guidance to help your organisation manage cyber risks, align with frameworks like ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials, and respond to incidents effectively.
Whether starting from scratch or maturing your current security posture, we deliver expert advice tailored to your size, sector, and risk appetite.
​
Why is it important?
-
Strategic Risk Management: Cyber threats are increasingly complex, and governance-level leadership is essential to manage evolving risks.
-
Regulatory Alignment: Standards like ISO 27001, DSPT, and Cyber Essentials require evidence of leadership and accountability in cyber risk.
-
Resource Efficiency: Not every organisation can afford or justify a full-time CISO. This service provides on-demand expertise at a fraction of the cost.
