Strategic Security Office
Lyre’s fractional CISO offering. SSO.
A conventional virtual CISO provides one person’s judgement for a few days each month. The Strategic Security Office provides an office.
The function combines deep technical knowledge with intelligence capability, working to a single brief. Strategy, governance and board reporting are set against what adversaries are doing to comparable organisations, rather than against a framework alone.
The office holds the security remit at the level a board requires, without the cost or the recruitment risk of a permanent appointment.
