Securing top-tier cybersecurity leadership is not just a necessity but a significant challenge, especially when working within budget constraints. Should you hire a full-time CISO or outsource to a vCISO provider?

Brian Haugli, CEO at SideChannel, joins BSW to discuss how organizations can hire a Virtual CISO (vCISO) to benefit from their expertise without the costs and resource requirements of a full-time hire. Brian will share:

  • Current vCISO trends
  • What to look for in vCISO services
  • Who fits/doesn't fit as a vCISO

vCISOs can be an effective solution for organizations that need to enhance their security program or respond to a breach, but know what to look for. If you're in the market for vCISO services or want to become a vCISO, don't miss this interview.
