A new entrant to the C-Suite is the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO).
More regulations are requiring this role and that this role be an individual and not a component of another person, like the Chief Information Officer or Chief Risk Officer. There are compliance obligations linked to this role but firms of various sizes will find it hard to expand their payroll for another C Level person.

We have implemented programs to help with SOC and HiTRUST certifications. We are versed in how to tailor those frameworks for your organization and your needs.
Unfortunately, you cannot fully outsource your compliance requirements to a managed service provider (MSP) or managed security service provider (MSSP). You will need a person to represent your needs to make sure the MSP or MSSP have properly incorporated your policies and procedures. We have seen organizations taken down because of poorly configured security tools by their MSP.
Likewise, cloud providers offer some basic security capabilities but those need to be properly configured to protect you. Automated backups are not always deployed in the cloud because it will add to the monthly charges. Hence recovering the cloud environment hasn’t been vetted and becomes a large liability for your organization. We have seen organizations turn off some tools or override rules like password complexity. Properly tuning the cloud capabilities is essential for your wellbeing.
Leverage our experience and focus on delivery results for your organization to benefit from simplified compliance requirements and properly aligned services from your MSP or cloud provider.
