The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) is a senior executive responsible for managing an organization's information security program, with the role of ensuring that the organization's information resources are protected from internal and external threats and that the organization complies with relevant regulations and standards. For organizations that don't have the budget to hire a CISO, need an interim CISO, or plan to add some additional expertise to this key position, Safetech provides security management consulting services. As part of this efficient and affordable service, a Safetech’ specialist will work with the beneficiary, performing the essential cyber security management activities expected from a dedicated director.

Our services may include assessing potential risks, developing policies, procedures and controls to ensure compliance with a set of standards, building and managing internal security teams, conducting operational security risk assessments, obtaining threat intelligence and advice and support in case of crisis. As part of the service, the Safetech’ representative will analyze the organization's security posture, identify weaknesses and propose a long-term security optimization plan. Our security management consulting services provide you with technical, organization and coordination expertise.
