Virtual CISO (vCISO) provides organisations with executive-level cyber security leadership without the need for a full-time, in-house CISO. At Red Helix, our vCISO is delivered by highly experienced security leaders who offer strategic guidance, risk management expertise, and regulatory compliance support.
This flexible approach ensures businesses of all sizes can access top-tier cyber security leadership, helping them strengthen their security posture and align their defences with industry best practices.
Our vCISO is deeply integrated with the intelligence-driven security ecosystem at Red Helix, leveraging real-time threat data from our CrowdStrike-powered platform. By combining strategic oversight with cutting-edge threat intelligence, we provide businesses with informed decision-making capabilities, proactive risk management, and tailored security strategies. Whether it’s developing security policies, managing compliance requirements, or advising on incident response, our vCISO ensures that cybersecurity remains a core business priority.
As part of our broader Managed Security Services, Red Helix’s vCISO offering provides continuous, expert-driven security leadership that evolves with the needs of an organisation. Our vCISO works closely with internal teams to build resilience, improve incident response readiness, and drive long-term security improvements. By embedding executive-level cyber security expertise into our clients’ operations, we help businesses stay ahead of threats, maintain regulatory compliance, and foster a security-first culture.
Key Business Benefits

Ensures compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements (e.g., GDPR, ISO 27001, NIST, HIPAA). As a result, it reduces the risk of legal repercussions and reputational harm.

Focuses on proactive security planning to support growth and digital transformation. This is done via risk assessments to evaluate vendor and partner security postures and strengthen supply chain security.
Conducts employee security awareness training and phishing simulations which reduces human-related security risks. A CISO also provides board-level reporting and security briefings to inform executives and stakeholders about cyber security risks and strategies.
