Migrate your security projects and initiatives to products that deliver quantifiable business value. Our CISOs will shoulder the responsibility for existing or planned security initiatives and manage them with a product delivery discipline.
Could your company benefit from an executive team member who can move the needle on business risk reduction? At a fraction of the cost of hiring a full-time resource?
Have you felt like your company’s Cybersecurity spend is a ‘death by a thousand cuts’?
Do you know whether you are spending enough or too much on Cyber Risk reduction?
We have multiple resources on tap that can integrate with your leadership team and help define a strategy that matches your risk tolerance.
Are you challenged with the need to communicate risk strategy to your team or board?
One of our CISOs will work with your team to quantify existing data assets and controls and calculate risk in a way that communicates clearly to your team and board.
Your CISO will work with the team to create a meaningful vision for risk and compliance. This vision will balance financial realities and risk tolerance through a series of stakeholder collaborations.
Our CISOs understand that ‘It isn’t what you say, it’s what people hear’. We will work to understand how your stakeholders ‘hear’ and craft our message to communicate effectively.
As a discipline, cybersecurity has had difficulty communicating well to the business. Our dilemma has been that of proving a negative: ‘If you invest $X, you will prevent this bad thing from happening.’ The business then invests the money and one of two scenarios play out:
However, over the past few years the industry has begun maturing in the sense that we are both (a) gathering more data to inform us about what causes breaches and how expensive they are and (b) using mathematical models other industries have found successful in predicting risk reduction.
The MITRE Corporation is a global not for profit organization focused on public safety issues including cybersecurity. We use the data they gather to identify statistically meaningful patterns in risk reduction.
Our CTO is the co-founder and primary contributor of RedPill, an open source framework for modeling risk. RedPill uses the data behind ATT&CK, together with control data from the customer’s environment to statistically model the effectiveness of your security program.
