virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO)

Aegis vCISO consulting service is a specialized outsourced advisory offering that experienced cybersecurity professionals provide strategic leadership and expertise to organizations without a full-time internal CISO or cyber security leader. This service enables entities, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises or those with limited resources, to access high-level security guidance on a fractional, on-demand, or project-based basis, ensuring compliance, risk management, and enhanced security posture without the overhead of a permanent executive hire.

Strategic Oversight

Developing and implementing cybersecurity strategies, policies, and frameworks aligned with standards such as NIST, ISO 27001, IRS, or CIS Controls, including risk assessments and governance structures.

Risk and Compliance Management

Conducting vulnerability assessments, gap analyses, and audits to identify threats, ensure regulatory adherence (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, or PCI DSS, IRS, State and Federal Laws), and recommend mitigation measures.

Incident Response and Resilience

Advising on the creation and refinement of incident response plans, playbooks, and tabletop exercises, while supporting crisis management during security events. The goal is to have incidents be a non-event even if it is reportable.

Team and Vendor Coordination

Guiding internal teams, evaluating third-party vendors, and fostering a security-aware culture through training and awareness programs and third-party vendor management..

Develop a Tailored Cybersecurity Strategy and Roadmap

Using assessment findings, create customized plan with short-/long-term objectives, risk mitigations, compliance roadmaps, incident response protocols, and policy frameworks. Integrate with existing IT operations and business priorities.

Conduct Employee Training and Awareness Programs

Roll out security education initiatives, such as phishing simulations, password management training, and data handling best practices, to mitigate human-related risks. Regular sessions foster a security-conscious culture across the organization.

Establish Ongoing Monitoring, Communication, and Review

Implement continuous oversight with threat intelligence, audits, drills, and KPIs (e.g., response times, vulnerability reductions). Set communication schedules (e.g., monthly meetings) and adjustment processes for evolving threats and feedback.

Reporting and Metrics

Providing executive-level reporting on security metrics, emerging threats, and return on security investments to inform executive and board-level decisions.

Aegis Managed Detection and Response (MDR)

A unified cybersecurity platform provides core protections, working together in one place to eliminate multi-vendor deployments. Unlike platforms that connect 3rd-party tools, a truly unified platform has native controls, normalized data, and no extra integrations. 

A Cybersecurity Platform That Connects the Dots

Connect the dots across endpoints, email, cloud, and data, unifying security into an AI-native platform.

  • DarkWeb.PNG

    Dark Web Monitoring

    Knowledge of the dark corners of the internet can be exposed by scraping, analyzing and continuously monitoring the dark web for malicious activity targeting businesses and user credentials.

  • Awarness-Training.png

    Building an Awareness Culture

    Transform employees into a strong line of defense against cyber threats with pre-scheduled security awareness training that alters behavior and limits human-driven cyber risks before they escalate.

    Most security breaches are caused by human error, such as clicking links, downloading files, or replying to suspicious emails. However, blaming users for these mistakes is not a productive approach. Instead, the focus should be on training them to think like defenders.

    By empowering employees with the right security awareness training, organizations can help them recognize threats and respond effectively. This proactive approach transforms users into active participants in the organization’s defense against potential attacks.

  • Phishing.PNG

    Identifying Weakest Links
    to Strengthen Security Culture

    Identify security weaknesses before attackers do by using generative AI and branded templates to automate phishing simulations to measure employee resilience and reinforce cybersecurity awareness.

    Phishing is the leading cause of breaches, yet generic training fails to engage users or reflect real threats. Guardz Phishing Simulation empowers organizations to run lifelike, AI-generated attacks tailored by tone, industry, and language. Delivered natively via cloud email, each simulation tracks user behavior in real time and delivers instant training to those who take the bait. The result enables organizations to reduce client risk, reinforce security habits, and transform the inbox from a soft spot into a frontline of defense.
