A chief security officer, without the six-figure salary.
You don’t need a full-time security executive. You need someone who thinks like one. Our virtual Chief Security Officer service gives your business senior-level security leadership — risk assessments, security policies your team will actually follow, compliance guidance, and a plan that gets stronger every quarter — for a fraction of one hire.
What lands on your desk unanswered
“What’s your security program?”
A customer, an insurer, or a regulator asks — and the honest answer is a pile of tools, not a program. Nobody can say what’s covered, what isn’t, or what happens next, in writing.
Policies nobody follows
The policy binder was copied from a template, describes a company that isn’t yours, and hasn’t been opened since. A policy your team can’t follow isn’t a control — it’s evidence against you.
No plan for the bad day
If ransomware lands on a Tuesday, who decides what? Who calls whom, in what order, with what authority? Businesses without an incident-response plan improvise it at the worst possible moment.
Risk with no ranking
Everything feels urgent, so nothing gets prioritized. The loudest problem gets the budget while the biggest exposure — usually quieter — waits another quarter.
Senior security leadership, sized for your business
Security risk assessments — a clear-eyed look at where you’re exposed, ranked by what matters most. Policies & procedures written in plain English your team will actually follow. Compliance guidance for HIPAA and other requirements, without drowning in paperwork. Incident response planning for the bad day. And quarterly security reviews that keep the posture improving.
Managed IT runs your systems; a vCSO governs them — strategy, policy, and accountability. They work together. The work is done by Alan Decker, Valhalla Technology Services — senior security leadership, direct, no handoffs — for a flat monthly retainer based on your size and needs, set in your proposal before you commit. Prefer to talk it through? Call (361) 704-1373 for a vCSO consultation.
