Why you need a vCISO
Many organizations lack in-house cybersecurity expertise and budget. These organizations often do not have dedicated cybersecurity professionals to assess and manage cyber risks effectively. Additionally, limited budget allocation poses a significant constraint in implementing robust security measures. The absence of specialized knowledge and financial resources hampers their ability to stay updated with evolving threats and comply with industry regulations. Consequently, these organizations become more vulnerable to cyber attacks and struggle to safeguard critical data.

Inadequate Protection of Customer Data
