Best fractional CISOs in the US
5 firms and practitioners offer fractional CISO work in the US, counting those that work worldwide. First on the list are TechCXO, Cyber Defense Group and Fractional CISO. TechCXO is the editor's pick. None of them publishes a fee, so the first call sets the price.
Engagements usually run 6 to 12 months or longer, because a SOC 2 Type 2 report needs an observation window of three months or more.
