CISO-as-a-Service
10 people for the work of one and a half people – with CISO-as-a-Service you get the skills of an entire IT security department in one comprehensive agreement
That's why you need to outsource your CISO function
Today, cyber security is a prerequisite for doing business. The trust of customers, citizens and employees disappears if management does not take security seriously – and this applies to both companies and authorities.
With a CISO function in your organization, you solve the problem by achieving a high and documented level of information security, which at the same time strengthens your cyber defense.
It doesn't actually have to be that difficult - at least we'll help you make it simple and financially attractive.
Unitas has several years of experience in delivering on this function, has professional service descriptions and deliveries, just as it is demonstrably experienced CISO consultants that we send into the field – it is a very complex area and with the role comes a very large responsibility, which we naturally take it upon ourselves.
We take care of everything from training top management in cyber risk management to drafting cyber strategy and policies to technical controls, monitoring and governance (documentation of compliance with requirements such as NIS 2).
Did you know that..?
There is a general shortage of qualified CISOs and in other countries they are very good at 'sharing' CISOs through CISO services
1
The total finances are often smaller than internal CISO, but in our service more than 15 competencies are included in the package.
2
It is Unitas' responsibility to provide a new CISO at no additional cost if the CISO is no longer associated for any reason.
3
It is Unitas which ensures a top-qualified and trained CISO, who is continually upgraded.
The challenge
The ever-increasing cyber threats and attacks require a strong defense.
You are probably looking for a CISO, but find that they are difficult to find, retain and the cost is high for a relatively limited area, even though it is extremely critical for most organizations that information security is fully under control .
This causes frustrations and headaches in a situation where you would rather spend your time on other tasks.
So where do you find a Solution that both provides a CISO with sharp skills, a strong technical and legal team to support him, and at the same time within a reasonable budget? You do with that Unitas' CISO service!
Perhaps your organization is subject to the upcoming NIS 2 directive, DORA or other sets of rules that dictate that a real information security function be established within the organization. In other words, a date has been set for when you will have even more control over information security in your organization.
The solution
Unitas offers a complete CISO service where you get your own dedicated CISO, but also a whole team of specialists supporting the CISO, thus offering you a complete and objective information security department. We call this CISO-as-a-Service and it is the Solution for you and your organization in the search for both an overall CISO and a unified security department, where you get much more than just a CISO for a highly competitive economy.
