A short, practical overview of how we reduce risk fast — board‑ready reporting, measurable control improvements, and a plan your team can execute.

Board‑ready top risks, owners, and 30/60/90 roadmap
Identity, SaaS, and third‑party risk reduction without breaking operations
Evidence pack for audits and customer security reviews

Common realities

Security is owned by IT; risk decisions aren’t consistently framed for executives.
Tooling exists, but outcomes are unclear: “Are we safer?”
Customer/vendor questionnaires are consuming cycles and slowing revenue.
Ransomware and insurance requirements are increasing, fast.

What a vCISO does here

Establish governance: risk register, reporting cadence, and decision-making structure.
Prioritize controls based on business impact: identity, backups, endpoint/vuln cadence, logging.
Rationalize tooling and vendor strategy to reduce spend and improve coverage.
Create a 90-day execution plan your team can actually deliver.

Recommended starting point

Start with the Security Posture & Board Risk Snapshot (4 weeks) to establish risk clarity and a roadmap, then shift into a 90-day build or a monthly retainer.
