vCISO Services - Virtual CISO as a Service

A Virtual CISO (vCISO) gives your company the same security leadership as a full-time Chief Information Security Officer - strategic direction, compliance program ownership, board reporting, vendor oversight, and incident response coordination - without the $280,000+ annual cost of a full-time executive hire. Our vCISO service is not advisory-only. We take ownership of your entire security program and are accountable for results. In the first 30 days, we assess your current posture and build a prioritized roadmap. By day 60, we are implementing critical controls, hardening your cloud environments, and training your team. By day 90, you are audit-ready for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, or whichever framework your clients and regulators require. vCISO vs. Full-Time CISO: What You Actually Get A full-time CISO costs $280,000+ per year (salary, benefits, equity) and takes 3-6 months to hire. A vCISO from Atlant Security starts at $3,300/month, begins working in week one, and brings cross-industry experience from 200+ security engagements across fintech, healthcare, SaaS, government, and manufacturing. Unlike a full-time hire who knows one company's environment, our vCISO brings pattern recognition from securing organizations across 14 countries - we have seen every type of misconfiguration, compliance gap, and security incident, and we know the fastest path to fixing each one. What Our vCISO Service Includes Security Program Ownership - We don't hand you a report and leave. We build, manage, and continuously improve your security program as an embedded member of your leadership team. Compliance Readiness - SOC 2 Type I & II, ISO 27001, HIPAA Security Rule, PCI DSS, NIST 800-171, CMMC, HITRUST, and GDPR. Most clients pursue multiple frameworks simultaneously - our vCISO maps controls once and satisfies all applicable standards. Cloud & Infrastructure Security - Microsoft 365 hardening (280+ settings), Google Workspace lockdown, AWS/Azure/GCP configuration review, endpoint protection, and Zero Trust architecture implementation. Employee Security Awareness - Monthly phishing simulations, security training sessions, and building a security-first culture across your organization. Board & Executive Reporting - Quarterly board-ready reports covering risk posture, program maturity, compliance status, and strategic recommendations. Designed for non-technical leadership. Vendor Risk Management - Third-party security assessments, vendor questionnaire management, and supply chain risk oversight. Incident Response - Planning, tabletop exercises, and if a breach occurs, we coordinate the response and bring in our dedicated IR team for containment and recovery. Led by former Microsoft Security Consulting team member Alexander Sverdlov, every vCISO engagement is led personally by senior expertise. We are 100% vendor-agnostic - we have never taken a kickback from a vendor and never will. Our smallest vCISO client had just 8 employees. Our largest spans 6 countries with 8,000+ employees.
