We became aware of Vizius as we were beginning a major software development project. Security of the application and user data was a primary concern. We engaged their team during the design phase of the project. They've done a thorough review at each step while not slowing down the pace of development.
We went on to engage Vizius to manage our Outsourced Security Program where they assess our security controls on an ongoing basis and help us prioritize improvements to align with our industry and business size. Although this is an extensive and long-term project, the Vizius team is guiding us through the process in an engaging, comfortable way. Their expertise and guidance have been invaluable.
Working in the financial industry, we value the trust our customers place in us to manage and protect their sensitive data. I can depend on the Vizius team to know the current threats and what we need to do to defend against them. Relying on their expertise gives us peace of mind and the ability to focus on what we do best.
A named, senior security leader who attends your leadership meetings
Policies, incident response plan and security program written to fit your size
Vendor, audit and customer-questionnaire management
A one-page monthly dashboard for leadership and the board
Who you'll work with
A Principal Engineer, not a salesperson
Likely lead: Kyl Gaston or Cameron Cromer. You talk to the engineer who does the work on Fractional CISO (vCISO).
Questions buyers ask
How much time does a vCISO spend with us?
It depends on the program. Most clients start with a few days a month and adjust after the first 90 days.
Do you replace our MSP?
No. We set direction and hold the work to a standard. Your MSP or IT team does the day-to-day work, and we help them succeed.
What will the board see?
One page each month: risk trend, progress against the roadmap, and the decisions we need from leadership.
More detail
Get a security leader without a full-time hire. Your vCISO sets priorities, writes the policies, manages vendors and audits, answers customer questionnaires and reports progress on one page leadership can read. Some clients have run bank-grade programs this way for years.
