What qualifications do have a vCISO?

vCISOs have extensive experience and knowledge of risk management and cyber security best practices.

They must also possess strong leadership, communication and analytical skills to effectively manage security strategy and security operations.

Many vCISOs have a background in computer science, engineering or related fields and hold relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM or CISA.

Why do you need a vCISO?

Businesses need a vCISO to establish a strong cybersecurity posture and mitigate cyber risks.
