Venture Capital

Fractional CISO has helped its clients secure 17 acquisitions, 34 additional rounds of funding, and over $4 billion in additional revenue. Choose the vCISO proven to help your companies grow and exit.

Staff Augmentation

Staff augmentation creates complexity for GRC efforts. We work with your agreement structure to create custom cybersecurity programs that both meet your customer’s needs and protects your own company.

Healthcare

Stop worrying about whether or not you’re in compliance with HIPAA. We remove guesswork by implementing and maintaining HIPAA-compliant practices, then documenting them so you can prove it to the government.

Manufacturing

Cyber attacks can and do shut down manufacturing lines, costing you millions. We use our quantitative approach to risk management to categorize your assets, calculate your risk in real dollars, and generate efficient risk mitigation plans with calculable ROI.

Fintech

Fintech companies face even more compliance scrutiny than most cloud service providers, due to their handling of significant dollars. We create one cybersecurity program that easily maps to all of the frameworks you need, and can support multiple audits per year.
