We are Fulcrum Shifts

Your Personal Chief Information Security Officer (CISO)

Whether you require ongoing CISO support, assistance reaching crucial milestones, or even sourcing a permanent CISO, we’re here to serve as your trusted partner.

Why hire a fractional or virtual CISO?

Benefits of Our Fractional or Virtual CISO

At Fulcrum Shifts, we understand that money, specifically your money, is important and that hiring a full-time, experienced CISO whose total cost to your company (e.g. salary, bonus, benefits, equity awards, taxes, etc) can easily exceed $500k is scary. That cost often does not even include the vendors, SMEs, consultants, and staff augmentation that a single CISO would need to reach out to daily.

You not only get a dedicated CISO for your business but also gain access to a pre-built team behind the CISO, enhancing efficiency and scalability as needed.

Whether you feel you need a formal CISO role or not, if you have digital assets to protect, you will always need the work that a CISO or CISO-like organization provides.

Why Cybersecurity

Many small and mid-sized companies believe that it’s just not the right time to invest in cybersecurity. They often see it as a cost center—something necessary but to be delayed and minimized. At Fulcrum Shifts, we know this couldn’t be further from the truth. Our approach integrates cybersecurity as a core pillar of your business growth strategy.
