Small and medium-sized organisations face the same Information Security challenges as larger organisations do, but often don’t have the resources or in-house expertise to implement and manage all the necessary pillars of an effective Information Security Management Framework. This typically leaves multiple gaps both in terms of security strategy, oversight and also technical controls.
Camwey’s vCISO service helps your organisation address these technical and organisational security gaps ensuring your business stays on track in terms of protecting your data, operations and reputation.
Our vCISO service offers a cost-effective way of leveraging the skills and expertise of experienced Cyber Security professionals to deliver all aspects of security leadership on a part-time, remote basis.
