Senior security leadership, when you need it.
Fractional and interim security leadership from experienced practitioners. A vCISO, a Fractional Threat Lead or a Fractional SOC Director gives you senior expertise and accountability for the outcome — without the cost, delay or commitment of a full-time hire.
Three senior roles, available on demand.
Each role brings over 15 years of hands-on experience in offensive security, threat intelligence and security operations — including leadership inside organisations at MD level.
vCISO
A virtual Chief Information Security Officer: security strategy, governance, risk, regulation and board reporting.

Pay for what you need
Senior expertise for the days you need it, scaling up or down as priorities change.
Broader experience
Leaders who have seen many organisations bring proven approaches, not first attempts.
Independent perspective
Objective advice to boards and executives, free from internal politics and vendor ties.
