CISO Augmentation

Strategic security leadership, scaled to your needs.

Plenty of organizations design their security postures "with hackers in mind", but how many of them actually hire hackers to help build them? You deserve a defensive strategy designed by an attacker, not someone who reads about them.

Who This Is For

Growing Startups

You've achieved product-market fit and now enterprise customers are asking about your security posture. Get the expertise build security into your growth before it becomes tech debt.

Mid-Size Companies

Your security team is capable but needs strategic direction. Augment your existing leadership with experienced guidance on secure design and making an attacker's job near impossible.

Struggling Security Teams

You need executive buy-in and want to make organizational change, but don't know where to start. Instead of buying tools and blinking boxes, generate value from within and remove all reasons not to invest in your team further.

How I Can Help

Continuous Red/Purple Teaming

Flexible Engagement

Every organization's needs are different. I offer flexible arrangements from a few hours a month for advisory support to multiple days a week for hands-on leadership. Let's find the right fit for your situation and budget.
