Common questions
What is a vCISO?
A vCISO (virtual Chief Information Security Officer) is an experienced security leader who runs your cybersecurity program on a fractional basis: executive-level strategy, governance, and compliance oversight without the cost of a full-time hire. Where Purple Raven is different is delivery. Our engineers and GRC analysts do the hands-on work too, so the program actually gets executed instead of sitting in a slide deck.
Do small businesses really need cybersecurity and compliance?
Yes. Small and mid-sized businesses are now the most-targeted segment for cyberattacks, and customers increasingly require proof of security (SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001, GDPR) before signing. A right-sized program protects the business and unlocks deals you'd otherwise lose.
What size and type of companies do you work with?
Everyone from 5-person startups to 5,000-person enterprises, across healthcare, biotech, manufacturing, retail, and consumer tech. We secure both IT and OT environments and right-size the program and engagement to your team, budget, and risk.
