Security in Residence is a virtual CISO (vCISO) service offered by ITC Secure, providing organisations with access to experienced Chief Information Security Officers on a flexible, scalable basis. The service is designed for organisations that face challenges in recruiting or affording full-time internal security leadership. Assigned CISOs act as trusted advisors to senior management and boards, covering people, technology, and governance aspects of cyber security. Key functions of the service include: - Advising senior management and boards on the current state of security and cyber risk - Developing and driving long-term cyber security roadmaps - Assessing vulnerabilities and developing risk mitigation strategies - Creating compliance frameworks, policies, and procedures to ensure regulatory adherence and audit readiness - Supporting continuous, effective, and efficient security operations The service is structured to be cost-efficient compared to hiring a full-time CISO, with flexible access models that allow organisations to scale support according to their needs. It is anchored in Microsoft's security product portfolio and supplemented by other third-party security partners.
