Enhancing and optimizing information and IT security is an essential priority for any company. It’s the best way to identify risks and manage incidents when they occur.

Outsource the training of a Chief Information Security Officer to bring your IT security to the next level

By appointing a CISO trained by us, you benefit from external expertise that can help you actively detect new risks and halt potential threats. Outsourcing relieves your staff of additional burdens, allowing them to focus on their core competencies. An external information security officer is an important first step towards an integrated information security management system ( ISMS ). The CISO keeps your company’s security policies up to date, assumes management responsibilities, and communicates the required sensibilities to your employees.

On the other hand, a properly trained internal CISO ensures that one of your employees has an overview of all security-related issues in your company. That means the internal information security officer is able to support your Chief Information Officer (CIO) in all aspects of operational and strategic management.

Two ways to improve the information and IT security in your organization

Designating a Chief Information Security Officer
Trust an internal or external information security officer with your company’s information security.

An external information security officer:

  • Defines areas of responsibility of the CISO within your company
  • Performs and documents tasks that have been defined in the course of joint workshops
  • Recommends measures to optimize your information security

A coach for your internal information security officer:

  • Determines and defines a training schedule
  • Qualifies your internal information security officer in accordance with the designated plan
  • Provides advanced training seminars on a regular basis

Benefit from our longstanding experience in the field of information security

By training an internal employee or commissioning our external Chief Information Security Officer, your company acquires new levels of expertise in the field of information security. This helps you minimize IT-related risks and quickly identify potential threats. Appointing a CISO actively contributes to the integrity of your company. Furthermore, you can demonstrate commitment to information security at the highest level.
