FAQs
Is a fractional CISO really necessary for a small-to-medium business?
The reality is, size doesn't shield you from cyber threats. In fact, smaller businesses are often easier targets because they typically have less robust security. Hackers are opportunistic, and they know you often have valuable data including customer info, financial records, etc. A fractional CISO helps you proactively plan a holistic strategy, preventing a potentially devastating attack that could cripple your business, regardless of your size.
How can we justify the cost of a fractional CISO on a super tight budget?
There are flexible ways for you to gain fractional CISO support, even with limited resources. Unified IT can tailor a plan to your budget. Whether it's a monthly retainer or a project-based approach, we'll focus on the most critical security needs first. A data breach can cost you far more in downtime, fines, and reputational damage than the cost of proactive security. We'll identify the biggest risks and prioritise accordingly, ensuring you get maximum value for your investment.
We have some basic IT security measures in place. How is this different to the cyber security packages Unified IT already provide?
A fractional CISO brings a strategic, holistic view, focusing on risk management, compliance, and developing a security-first culture. Your vCISO will assess your current controls, identify gaps, and implement best practices, like ISO 27001, the Essential 8, or NIST, depending on your needs.
Unified IT cyber security packages are based on fundamental requirements that underpin all of these frameworks, but technology doesn't address everything across the board. Gaining a holistic strategy from a vCISO will help you create a comprehensive security posture and enable you to rest easy knowing you've done everything within your control to secure your business and customer data.
We're concerned about adding more complexity to our operations. How can we implement robust security without hindering our employees' productivity?
That's a valid concern. We understand you’re trying to run a business, and security shouldn't be a roadblock. We'll work with you to find the right balance between security and usability where we focus on implementing security measures that are transparent and user-friendly. It's about creating a security-conscious environment that empowers your employees, not hinders them.
We have to comply with certain regulations. Can you help us navigate those requirements?
Absolutely! We're well-versed in various industry regulations and frameworks. We'll assess your compliance needs, develop a tailored plan, and ensure you meet all necessary requirements. This includes helping you prepare for audits, implementing necessary controls, and staying up-to-date on evolving regulations. We'll take the headache out of compliance, allowing you to focus on running your business.
