eCybersec offers Chief Information Security Officer as managed security service

Wednesday, 8 February 2017 00:00 - - {{hitsCtrl.values.hits}}

Cyber threats and information security are evolving at an astounding and rapid rate, making the role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) progressively more complex.

In this present context in Sri Lanka any of the sectors are unable to find the right skill set to employ a CISO. With the huge talent gap, organisations are struggling to recruit CISO experts with the appropriate skills across all the knowledge areas to prevent breaches and to reduce the time and investment spent in deploying the right cyber security measures. However, many small and mid-sized organisations cannot justify the expense of hiring a dedicated CISO.

CISO as a managed security service offers huge cost advantages over hiring internally, particularly in the development of a new role within the business.

eCybersec MD CEO Sanjee Balasuriya further emphasised that CISO consultants were vastly experienced and had worked at multinational organisations. Businesses that do not require or cannot afford a full-time CISO can use eCybersec’s own highly professional Cyber Security personnel to fill the CISO role within their organisations. As professionals within the Cyber Security business, our personnel have an abundance of real life experience performing threat monitoring, risk analysis, vulnerability assessment and many other functions often carried out by a CISO.

The service might only be needed until a sound security roadmap is established. CISO as a service from eCybersec enables any organisation to access high-level security expertise easily and cost-effectively. It provides a wealth of skills and experience, all delivered through a single point of aggregation and accountability. This uniquely managed security service enables businesses to develop and maintain a bespoke and robust Information Security Management System which supports a holistic, risk-driven framework for Information Assurance.

From quantifying an organisation’s security posture to overseeing the design of new systems, CISO as a service will help identify the right course of action, safeguard critical assets and ensure complete compliance with industry regulations.
