In today’s dynamic business landscape, organizations face inquiries from customers, insurance providers, risk auditors, and more, seeking assurance regarding the presence of a dedicated Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) responsible for cybersecurity risk. However, for some organizations, internal capacity constraints or budgetary considerations may make it challenging to appoint a full-time CISO. In such cases, the solution often lies in engaging professional IT security consulting providers, such as Tanner Security Consultants, to fulfill the crucial role of a Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO).
