Virtual & Fractional CISO Services

Cybersecurity Leadership, On-Demand

In today’s evolving threat landscape, businesses of all sizes need strong cybersecurity leadership—but not every company requires a full-time Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). That’s where Sagefrog’s vCISO (Virtual CISO) and fCISO (Fractional CISO) services come in.

We provide strategic cybersecurity expertise tailored to your organization’s needs, helping you strengthen your security posture, achieve compliance, and mitigate risks—without the cost of a full-time executive.

What is a vCISO?

A Virtual CISO (vCISO) is a highly experienced cybersecurity expert who provides on-demand leadership to guide your security strategy. This service is ideal for businesses that need:

  • A cost-effective alternative to a full-time CISO
  • Expert guidance on risk management & compliance
  • Ongoing cybersecurity advisory & strategic planning
  • Incident response & crisis management support

With Sagefrog’s vCISO services, you gain access to top-tier cybersecurity leadership—without the overhead of an in-house hire.


What is an fCISO?

A Fractional CISO (fCISO) provides the same high-level expertise but on a part-time basis, embedded in your organization. This is ideal for businesses that:

  • Need consistent cybersecurity leadership (e.g., 1-2 days per week)
  • Require hands-on policy development & risk assessments
  • Must align security with business objectives & compliance
  • Need a CISO to interface with the board & executive leadership

With an fCISO, you get a dedicated cybersecurity leader integrated into your team, guiding your security strategy while remaining flexible to your needs.
