Why you need a vCISO Ninja

Hmmm – an IT MSP WITH vCISO services: The cybersecurity life hack you didn’t know you needed!

Cybersecurity is more important today, than ever before. But for many businesses, hiring a full-time CISO is simply not feasible. That’s where the outsourced vCISO comes in.

What’s a vCISO?

vCISO, or virtual Chief Information Security Officer, is a cybersecurity expert who provides guidance and support to organizations on an orchestrated basis. vCISOs typically have years of experience in the cybersecurity industry and can help organizations of all sizes to develop and implement effective cybersecurity programs.

The vCISO can provide a wide range of services, including:

• Conducting security risk assessments
• Developing and implementing cybersecurity policies and procedures
• Managing security awareness and training programs
• Overseeing the selection and implementation of security technologies
• Responding to security incidents

This can be a valuable asset to organizations that do not have the resources (Budget) or expertise (Internal IT) to manage their own cybersecurity programs. vCISOs bring the skills that can help organizations to improve their security posture, reduce their risk of cyberattacks, and comply with security regulations.

Benefits of engaging a vCISO

But what are the tangible benefits of using vCISO services? Here are a few reasons why you should consider hiring an IT provider (MSSP) that provides vCISO services:

Your in-house CISO won’t judge you for your terrible cybersecurity posture. (it’s their fault) But let’s face it, most businesses have some pretty embarrassing security gaps. But with a VIRTUAL CISO, you can rest assured that they might embarrass you – but they will also help you to fix your security problems without too much judgment.

vCISOs are always on call. Unlike a full-time CISO, who may be taking a vacation or attending a conference when you need them most, vCISOs are always available to help you with your cybersecurity needs. Hiring a full-time CISO can be expensive. But with vCISO services, you can get the expertise you need at a fraction of the cost.

vCISOs are like ninjas, but without the black suits and katanas. They’re stealthy, they’re skilled, and they’re always one step ahead of the bad guys. Use of this outsourced, dedicated role can help you to sleep better at night. Knowing that your cybersecurity is in the hands of a fully qualified expert can give you the peace of mind you need to get a good night’s sleep.
