Interim / Fractional CISO
Senior security leadership, available now.
An experienced CISO who owns your security strategy and reports to the board in business terms. Full-time for a fixed period, or one to three days a week on an ongoing basis.
Who this is for
Boards and executive teams of mid-size and large organizations that need proven security leadership now: after an incident, an audit finding, a regulatory deadline, or the departure of a security lead.
The problem
Security decisions are being made bottom-up, budgets are spent on tools instead of risk reduction, and nobody translates cyber risk into board language. Hiring a permanent CISO takes months you may not have.
The outcome
Within 90 days: a board-approved security strategy, a prioritized risk-based roadmap, clear ownership across the organization, and measurable reporting the board actually understands.
What you get
- Security strategy and multi-year roadmap, approved at board level
- Risk register with business-impact quantification
- Security organization design and reporting lines
- Board and management reporting cadence
- Vendor and budget rationalization
- Handover to a permanent CISO when you are ready
Engagement model
Interim: 3–12 months, on-site presence as required. Fractional: 1–3 days per week, structural. Both include board availability during incidents.
