Experience in the role, not just knowledge about it
I served as a CISO inside an organization for years, with full accountability for information security, risk management, and regulatory compliance. This isn't theoretical knowledge from a course. It's the experience of someone who was in the room when an incident happened, and who built policy that actually worked in the field.
Many organizations need real CISO accountability, but aren't yet at a size that justifies a full-time internal role. That's where the fractional CISO model fits.
What's included
Information security policy
Building and maintaining a security policy fit for the organization's size and risk level.
Compliance and regulation
Meeting ISO, GDPR, and industry-specific regulatory requirements.
Risk and incident management
Risk mapping, incident response planning, and support during a real event.
Security in AI projects
Protecting data in AI projects, including Voice AI and automation systems.
Team training
Raising security awareness across teams, including dedicated training sessions.
Flexible scope
Hours scaled to company size and risk level, not a fixed template.
Separation of duties: CISO, not DPO, for the same organization
Worth knowing: CISO and DPO roles require separation of duties, sometimes even a regulatory conflict of interest. A single organization cannot fill both roles with the same person simultaneously. If you need both roles, we'll structure a working arrangement that respects that separation.
