Protect Your Business from Cyber Attacks
Fractional security leadership to manage your cyber risk.
A virtual Chief Security Officer (vCSO) from Leapfrog offers the ideal solution for mid-market companies that need cybersecurity leadership but can’t justify the expense of an experienced, full-time CSO.
Program accountability
Achieve full protection by pulling together your IT-related and non-technical cyber risk strategy under the management of a single, highly qualified senior executive who runs your CyberRisk Beyond IT program.
Coordinated approach
A vCSO who works in close coordination with your IT operations team delivers the most effective results. From planning and execution to management and mitigation, a holistic approach prevents more cyber loss.
A proven cybersecurity leader on your team.
A Leapfrog vCSO follows our Ring of Security approach to full protection. This includes leadership to protect your assets and improve your operational efficiency within your budgetary or business constraints. Your vCSO will hold one or more advanced security certifications, such as the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Certified-Chief Information Security Officer (C-CISO), or Certified Information Security Manager (CISM). Leapfrog vCSOs have:
- Proficiency in all areas of security and information risk management
- Hands-on expertise in industry best practices, direction, and strategy
- Responsibility for overseeing your cybersecurity and risk management strategy
- Service offerings that scale with your business
Highly customized vCSO services specific to your needs.
In addition to managing your CyberRisk Beyond IT program, your Leapfrog vCSO can perform other executive functions. Functions can include handling interactions with cyber insurance companies and cyber event investigators, providing ad hoc advisory services, and identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities anywhere in your business, including supply chain exposure and executive protection.
