Common Questions

Choosing & Structuring an Engagement

Which service should I start with if I'm not sure?

Most engagements start in one of two places: a Discovery & Maturity Review if you want a full picture of where your program stands before committing to anything, or vCISO services if you already know you need ongoing security leadership. The discovery call itself is built to help you figure out which one makes sense.

Can vCISO and compliance program management be bundled together?

Yes. It's one of our most common engagement shapes: a vCISO owning the overall security roadmap while we run compliance program management underneath it for frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001, or HIPAA. Having both under one team keeps the audit work and the strategy connected instead of pulling in different directions.

Do you work with early-stage startups, or only larger companies?

Most of our clients are growing technology companies past the earliest stage, typically once they're closing enterprise deals, preparing for a SOC 2 or ISO 27001 audit, or fielding security questionnaires from prospects. If you're not sure whether that describes you yet, a discovery call is the fastest way to find out.

Are these engagements ongoing retainers, or one-off projects?

Both, depending on the service. vCISO services, compliance program management, sales enablement, and corporate security are typically ongoing retainer engagements, since the work doesn't stop once a roadmap is built. Assessments like a Discovery & Maturity Review, penetration testing, and red teaming are structured as fixed-scope projects. See offensive security services for the project-based options.

What happens on a discovery call? Am I committing to anything?

No commitment. It's a 30-minute conversation about where your security and compliance program stands today, not a sales pitch. We'll talk through your stack, your stage, and whatever is keeping you up at night, then tell you which services make sense, if any.

How quickly can we get started after signing?

It depends on the scope and which services you're starting with. We'll lay out a realistic start date on the discovery call once we understand what you need, rather than quoting a generic timeline that may not fit your situation.
