New Paradigm Security vCISO · Board of Directors · ConfidentialNext review: 15 Feb 2025
The Current Challenge

Cybersecurity requires leadership, not ad-hoc projects.

Organisations without dedicated security leadership run unnecessary risks and incur inefficient costs.

01

No Strategic Direction

IT teams are constantly fighting fires instead of building a mature, future-proof security roadmap.

02

Suffocating Compliance Pressure

Requirements from regulators (NIS2, GDPR) and supply chain partners (ISO 27001, DORA) pile up without clear translation into policy.

03

Talent is Scarce & Expensive

A full-time CISO costs upwards of €200,000 per year and the average vacancy takes 10 weeks to fill. You need expertise now.

04

The Board Communication Gap

IT speaks in technical terms (firewalls, patching), while the board and shareholders want to think in business risks and ROI.
