vCISO Service

Not every organization can afford to hire a qualified CISO full time, but every organization needs internal cybersecurity leadership who understand your business and can help you grow instead of just saying “no”. If your organization is in this position, you may benefit from our vCISO, or “virtual CISO” service.

Stoic Cybersecurity provides you with a real CISO, an actual human who works with you, to advise your primary risk acceptor,someone–often with a title like President, CEO, Managing Director, Managing Partner, or Owner–who decides how much risk is worth taking and when, how much time and money you are willing to spend reducing risk, and what policies the organization will adopt. The correct insight at the correct time will help you make the correct decision. Your VCISO will also provide you, on request, with your current security posture, and risk assessment. Real numbers for you to take real action on.

  • Your vCISO handles all aspects of running your cybersecurity program and will provide cybersecurity reporting and accountability.
  • Your company has compliance and reporting requirements for both internal and external audiences
  • Your company need appropriate cybersecurity controls so that your employees know what to do, and how to keep the company safe
  • Your company has all kinds of technology, not just comptuers and servers which provide both cybersecurity risks, and oppportunities. Your CISO will work with every team to understand the tools they use, and how they use them to accomplish your mission while recommending the improvements needed to stay safe.
  • Your company will always have risk. Not if, but when you have a cybersecurity incident, your CISO will lead the charge against the bad guys, keep leadership in the loop, and work to contain the incident.
  • Your company is growing, and needs to prepare for future penetration tests and security evaluations. Your CISO will work with your IT team to ensure you pass these with flying colors.

Many midsize companies already have a CISO, but are going through profound changes like M&A, IPO, or rapid expansion. Profound change for a small to midsize business creates profound risks. Your CISO already has his hands full, we will provide them trustworthy talent augmentation to get through this change safely.

CISO Coaching Program

If you have a new CISO, an upcoming cybersecurity leader ready to take the next step, or you are a frustrated CISO, our CISO coaching program will help. A good CISO is half cybersecurity expert, and half executive. However, one typically comes into the role with only one of those backgrounds. Growth and change are necessary constants.

  • Stoic Cybersecurity will provide an experienced CISO who is also an experienced CISO coach to mentor your in-house CISO.
  • Your CISO will meet biweekly with their coach, one on one, to work on their specific goals and challenges.
  • Your CISO will have access to unlimited email and Signal communication with their CISO coach.
  • Your CISO will also receive access to a wealth of CISO resources developed and used by our own CISOs in the trenches with human-scale organizations of all kinds.
  • Our coaches take time to help your CISO, and you should take it too. Setting an executive on a winning path takes time, therefore our CISO coaching engagements are a minimum 6 months in duration.

Virtual Cybersecurity Team (VCT)

You company has cybersecurity challenges, opportunities, and goals, both short, and long term. Cybersecurity is a lot more than just not getting hacked. The bad guys are always learning new tricks, and

  • Your VCT will work hand in hand with your IT staff to implement and operate a modern cybersecurity program, created by your CISO, and designed with you to suit your business needs. Our VCT is happy to partner with your in-house staff, or an IT MSP (managed service provider).
  • Your VCT will run cybersecurity operations such as managing endpoint security, vetting IT purchases from a cybersecurity perspective, vulnerability scanning, technical incident response, and more.
  • We will ensure a clean separation of duties between your IT staff and your Stoic Cybersecurity Virtual Security Team, so that technology is never left in a state its maintainers don’t expect.
  • VCT is available to our CISO customers. Your Stoic Cybersecurity CISO directs your VCT throughout the process of implementing your cybersecurity program.

Incident Response

Only available to our vCISO, VCT, and Coaching clients, Stoic Cybersecurity Incident Response Support provides temporary staff augmentation to rapidly respond to a cybersecurity incident.
