virtual Chief Security Officer (vCSO)
Enterprise-Grade Security Leadership for Accountants
Struggling with the challenges and unknowns of cybersecurity compliance?
ComplyWise online's vCSO services help you meet regulations, build trust, and grow your firm without the headache.
Stay Compliant. Win More Clients. Reduce Risk.
The FTC Safeguards Rule requires accounting firms to appoint a Qualified Individual to oversee their security program. Hiring a full-time CISO isn’t always feasible — that’s where ComplyWise comes in.
Our fractional virtual CSOs (vCSOs) help firms operationalize cybersecurity, working with your existing staff, suppliers, and technology providers to ensure security measures are effective, consistent and compliant across the business. Your vCSO will support Written Information Security Program (WISP) development and implementation, bridge gaps between vendors, and provide ongoing security leadership without the full-time cost.
With the ComplyWise vCSO service, you get more than a consultant — you gain a dedicated cybersecurity team ensuring your firm stays secure, compliant, and prepared for evolving threats.

A Fixed-Price Contract for a Fractional CSO is the Best Choice

No Hourly Billing, No Stress
With a fixed-price contract, your team can reach out without worrying about racking up costs. Employees feel comfortable asking critical security questions, fostering better engagement and stronger cybersecurity practices.
Better Value, Better Results
Hourly billing doesn’t always reflect the true value of work. Fixed pricing allows us to focus on delivering high-quality results, not tracking minutes. You know the cost upfront, and we ensure the job is done right—without rushing or cutting corners.
Aligned Interests for Stronger Security
Hourly billing creates tension—clients want to minimize hours, while consultants are pressured to maximize them. A fixed-price model removes this conflict, allowing us to focus on what truly matters: strengthening your security.
More Trust, Less Friction
Security consulting is built on trust, and trust takes time. A fixed-price contract encourages open communication, collaboration, and the flexibility needed to address risks properly—without worrying about unexpected invoices.
We’ve embraced fixed pricing because it works. No hidden fees, no pressure - just expert cybersecurity guidance when you need it.
