Virtual CISO (vCISO) Services for Australian SMBs
Executive-level cyber security strategy and leadership without a full-time CISO salary.
What a virtual CISO does
A vCISO sets your security strategy, prioritises where to invest, represents your security posture to customers, insurers and regulators, and makes sure your day-to-day protection actually maps to a coherent plan the same role a Chief Information Security Officer plays inside a large enterprise, delivered as a flexible, fractional service.
Why SMBs need this
Many Australian SMBs have someone doing IT, but nobody responsible for security strategy specifically which means decisions get made reactively, tools get bought without a plan, and compliance questions from customers or insurers go unanswered. Our vCISO service is led by a founder with a decade's experience as Principal Cyber Security Architect for the Australian Federal Government.
