Why choose a Virtual CISO?
If it seems like each day brings new headlines of companies being hit with cyber-attacks, then it’s because that’s the reality. From ransomware to phishing attacks and beyond, cyber attacks can bring organisations to their knees.
It’s not merely a big business problem either. In fact, 43% of cyber attacks target SMEs, and 60% of those which are breached go out of business within six months.
While large companies have the resources to hire a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), smaller companies can struggle to acquire the right talent without breaking the bank. Virtual CISOs provide the solution.
Cost-effective, capable and dedicated to bringing outstanding cyber resilience to your business, a virtual CISO brings security leadership to your business.

It made a massive difference to have ISO explained in layman’s terms. It’s very easy to ask questions and you aren’t left understanding less! You just call or email and it’s in a way that’s simple to understand.

We are in a safer place now than we were 12 months ago. Starting with two factor authentication. The culture of the organisation is in a better place and we were in a better place for lockdown too.

It was more work than I’d expected. I soon realised I needed help to fully understand the requirements and embed the standards so they would work for my business. I approached British Assessment Bureau for help. They recommended Risk Evolves. Twelve weeks later, we passed our remote audit and achieved certification.

Our clients appreciate that we practice what we preach and can share real-life experience of running an ISO certified business. We’re certified to ISO9001 and were the first UK client of NQA to certify to both ISO27001 and ISO27701.
