fractionalciso
Fractional CISO is an on-demand cybersecurity leadership firm founded in June 2017 by Rob Black and headquartered in Auburndale, Massachusetts. The firm provides tailored Virtual CISO (vCISO) services—executive-level cybersecurity leadership on a flexible, part-time basis—designed to help small and mid‑market organizations manage risk, achieve compliance, and support business growth without the cost of a full‑time CISO. Clients gain a two‑person U.S.-based team: a seasoned vCISO and a skilled cybersecurity analyst who together craft and implement custom cybersecurity programs, conduct risk assessments, lead compliance efforts (including SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HIPAA, TX‑RAMP), and coach leadership and boards. Their QuantiShield quantitative risk assessment leverages FAIR‑based Monte Carlo simulation to assign dollar‑value risk scores and prioritize controls for mid‑market firms. Fractional CISO maintains a zero‑conflict policy: they recommend no vendor tools for commission, only solutions that fit the client’s needs.
