CISO-as-a-Service (vCISO)

Executive-level security leadership—when and how you need it.

Why a vCISO?

Not every organization needs a full-time CISO—but every organization needs security leadership.

As a vCISO (Virtual Chief Information Security Officer), I help you design, guide, and mature your security program—without the cost or commitment of a full-time executive.

Whether you’re early in your journey or facing growing complexity, I bring a calm, structured approach to help you move forward with confidence.

What I Bring to the Table

Strategy & Direction

Whether you're into pen testing, cloud security, governance, or just figuring things out—I’ll help you structure your learning with real-world context.

Program Design & Maturity

Whether you’re building from scratch or refining what you have, I’ll help shape a program that fits your size, risk, and resources.

Policy, Process & Governance

Clear, pragmatic policies and workflows that support—not slow down—your business.

Risk Management & Oversight

Ongoing monitoring, reporting, and stakeholder communication—so risk is visible, not hidden.

Executive Collaboration

I speak “board” and “engineering”—and help translate between the two.

Frameworks & Standards

SOC 1/2/3 (Type I and II)
ISO 27001 & 27002
NIST CSF / 800-53 / 800-171
GDPR
PCI-DSS
Common Criteria
FedRAMP
DoDIN APL
ITIL & Risk IT

These aren’t just buzzwords—I understand how they map to your real-world environment, people, and constraints.

Engagement Options

Ongoing advisory (monthly/quarterly)
Part-time fractional CISO
Short-term support (audit prep, breach readiness, vendor assessments)

Is This Right for You?

You're a growing business needing structure without over-hiring
You have compliance drivers but no internal security lead
You're trying to level up a scattered security effort
You want a trusted advisor to support your executive or technical teams

Let’s Talk

Security doesn’t have to be chaos—or all-or-nothing.

If you want experienced guidance and clarity at the leadership level, I’m here to help.
