CISO as a Service

Your information security needs leadership

Information security affects decisions across the entire company. Someone has to assess risks, set priorities and make sure that agreed measures are implemented.

With CISO as a Service (CISOaaS), we take on the external leadership of your information security with clearly defined responsibilities. We work together with your executive management, your internal team and your IT service providers.

What we take on

Strategy and priorities

We assess your current situation and develop a security strategy with an actionable roadmap. We align investments and measures with your business risks.

Steering information security

We coordinate the agreed security tasks, track progress and refer decisions to the appropriate decision-makers.

Reporting and decision support

Executive management and the board of directors receive a clear overview of key risks, need for action and progress.

Collaboration and incident preparedness

We clarify responsibilities and escalation paths. For security incidents, we define who decides, who acts and what support is needed.

How we work together

At the outset, we agree on tasks, decision-making authority, availability and working relationships. This results in a work programme with regular coordination meetings and reports.

We take responsibility for the agreed CISO function. Business decisions and the overall responsibility of company management remain with the company.

What you receive

You receive a named lead for your information security. A prioritised action plan and regular reports make visible which risks exist, which tasks remain outstanding and where decisions are needed. Scope and frequency depend on the agreed mandate.

From practice

Embedding information security in everyday operations

A fiduciary company wanted to establish information security as a permanent management task.

As part of CISOaaS, we handle ongoing security leadership and support the implementation. We advise the people responsible, coordinate measures with the IT service providers and regularly review the agreed security measures.

This gives the company a dedicated contact person who continuously looks after security matters and drives implementation forward.
