CISO (chief information security officer) as a Service, also called virtual CISO
(vCISO), involves cyber security outsourcing.
Here, the responsibilities of a chief information security officer and information
security leader are outsourced to a third-party service provider or vendor. This
CISOaaS cybersecurity vendor selects the top talent from a vast pool of experts and
information security leaders with a wealth of experience and invaluable expertise in
designing and managing holistic security solutions in an enterprise.
While it’s often paid for on a subscription or as-needed basis, CISO as a service
offers a fine blend of practicality and efficiency. By outsourcing or delegating its
technical and administrative cybersecurity needs to a third party, an organisation
can access the skilled labour and resources it’s void of. Thus, potentially ending
their staffing woes and security inadequacies. Such organisations can inadvertently
optimise their cybersecurity posture and compliance demands with these resources.
CISO as a service, CISOaaS, could be deployed remotely, on-site or hybrid, depending
on the organisation’s needs and the experts’ preferences.
