CSO Outsourcing

Overview

BLT understands that you don’t have the resources to overpay a full-time IT security staff, which sits around most of the time and waits for something to go wrong. You need a more proactive and cost-effective solution. Our CSO Outsourcing services are specifically suited to institutions that are too small to justify a full-time CSO and industry/business associations whom wish to leverage a cost-effective, pooled resource. We partner with your institution under your preferred model of cooperation (full outsourcing, co-sourcing or transitional arrangements) in order to provide proactive and robust security management and support.

Our approach is designed to provide these services in a highly cost effective way by providing expertise when and where required across all the technical and non-technical areas. Assignments are highly customized to suit each client’s specific needs and may vary from a continuous on-site presence over a period of time, to a retainer-based approach with scheduled or ad-hoc periodic task delivery.
