Trusted vCISO services 

A virtual chief information security officer (CISO) is responsible for a business’ information and data security. A CISO’s responsibilities can include:

• Analysing any immediate threats to the data and security of a business

• Setting the security strategy for the business

• Raising awareness with the board on any potential security issues with business decisions

• Enforcing security best practice measures

• Upon a breach occurring, investigating what went wrong and how the issue can be resolved to avoid the same outcome again

• Ensuring staff handle data securely and IT infrastructure is designed with best security practices in mind

• A virtual CISO will ultimately oversee the protection of both business and customer data, as well as protecting business’ infrastructure from malicious actors.

Bulletproof makes senior information security strategy accessible to all. Our handy packages start at £1,995 per month and include everything a business needs to get started. For larger organisation or businesses who have custom requirements, we’ll take the time to understand and define your requirements. By looking at your priorities and objectives, we can quote for a best-fit solution that remains cost-effective.

A virtual CISO service will reduce both the likelihood and impact of data breaches, and makes it much easier to meet and maintain compliance standards. This means a vCISO service will give great value to your business.

Small and medium-sized businesses often find they don’t have the volume of work to justify a full-time CISO, which makes a virtual CISO a viable option to still manage their information security requirements.

Mid-market and larger organisations often find that the cost of hiring a CISO full-time is prohibitively expensive. A CISO’s wealth of experience commands high salaries. This makes hiring a virtual CISO on a retainer basis a best-of-both-worlds option. You get as much security strategy and leadership as you need, in a cost-effective retainer basis.

Proper information security management is an on-going process, requiring regular reviews, assessments, audits and maintenance. All vCISO Essentials and vCISO Premium customers benefit from a Lookahead Kick-off meeting, where future audits, renewal of certification, training, policy reviews are planned in. For vCISO Ultimate customers, Lookahead Kickoff will also include scoping for the next penetration test and service review of the managed SIEM service.
