Startups and established enterprises trust us to bring clarity, confidence, and real results to their security programs. Whether it’s SOC 2 readiness, ISO 27001 planning, or ongoing guidance from a Virtual CISO, these leaders share how strategic security helped them grow, earn trust, and move faster.

We partnered with The Virtual CISO for our ISO 27001 readiness, and the experience was exceptional. Their guidance was clear, practical, and made the path to compliance feel straightforward. Before engaging them, we faced several challenges, but their support turned the entire process into a smooth and efficient journey

As a growing SaaS company, navigating SOC 2 felt overwhelming, until we brought in The Virtual CISO. Their approach was structured, clear, and incredibly efficient. They helped us align with best practices, and get audit-ready despite having a small team.

Olivia (vCISO) provides clear, concise, and timely feedback whenever I have questions or new information from vendors and keeps all of our projects moving forward. She’s been such a valuable guide through VOB workflow. She truly embodies what it means to be a best in class XFN partner. I look forward to continuing to work with Olivia

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Virtual CISO (vCISO)?

A Virtual CISO is a flexible, on-demand security leader who provides strategic guidance without the cost of a full-time executive. We help you design, manage, and grow a security program that aligns with your business goals and regulatory need.

How is this different from hiring a consultant or internal security hire?

Unlike one-off consultants or siloed hires, we become a trusted partner embedded in your decision-making. Our vCISO model offers long-term support, strategic planning, and execution, scaled to your growth and budget

Do I need a vCISO if I’m a startup or a small company?

Yes, especially if you’re handling sensitive data, preparing for audits, or responding to customer security questionnaires. A vCISO gives you credibility, focus, and peace of mind without overextending your team.

What’s included in your vCISO service?

Each engagement is tailored, but typical services include risk assessments, policy development, compliance strategy (SOC 2, ISO 27001, etc.), incident response planning, vendor risk review, and regular executive reporting.

Can you help with SOC 2 or ISO 27001 readiness?

Absolutely. We specialize in helping companies build security programs that meet and exceed audit expectations, from gap assessments to documentation and ongoing support.
