Welcome to Virtual Security! We offer comprehensive Information Security consulting and virtual CISO services, with a special focus on PCI Compliance and Cloud Security.
We provide custom IT Security and Compliance solutions for small and medium size businesses (SMBs) and startups. SMBs and startups are the most vulnerable to security breaches, because their focus is on business growth, which can often leave security behind.
The proliferation of cloud environments has blurred the lines between development and systems operations, hence the new term of devops. A good devops team requires an extra set of skills, including a good understanding of software programming. If you add information security into the mix, you get to the next level – devsecops.
What about PCI compliance? An organization that takes credit card payments has to be PCI compliant. Depending on the number of transactions performed, and given the sheer size of the PCI DSS Standard, with hundreds of security controls and requirements, compliance can quickly become overwhelming.
If at the beginning a “security committee” can do a good job, competing priorities with their primary job functions can take them away from this added task. When is it time to hire a security team, and how much would it cost to have a good security team? All these are questions every startup CEO or CTO should ask themselves.
We are proposing a “Security-as-a-Service” model, where a team of experts would take care of all your information security needs – therefore, if you are running in the cloud, or looking into moving your infrastructure to the cloud, you came to the right place!
