Fractional leadership

One team for security, technology and marketing leadership

Most growing businesses need a CISO, a CTO, a CIO or a CMO long before they can pay for one full-time. We give you that leadership by the hour, for one role or all four.

Know where you stand in 30 minutes

The Security Pulse is a free conversation, not an audit. We ask 12 questions about how your business runs. Then we give you a one-page executive snapshot of your cyber risk, in plain English.

No cost. No obligation. No access to your systems needed.

A FEW OF THE QUESTIONS WE ASK:

If you were locked out of your systems for 3 days, what happens?

Do you and your team use two-factor authentication everywhere it matters?

What keeps you up at night about technology or security?

YOU LEAVE WITH:

  • Quick wins you can do this week
  • A 90-day plan for what to build next
  • A snapshot you can share with your partners, board or insurer

FAQ

Common questions

What is a fractional CISO?

A fractional CISO is a senior security leader who works with your business part-time. You get the same strategy, policies and compliance guidance a full-time Chief Information Security Officer gives, for a set number of hours each month.

What is an MSSP?

An MSSP (managed security service provider) monitors and protects your systems for you, 24/7. At CyberCloak.Tech, that service is ZTLayer: endpoint and DNS protection, plus monitoring by a Security Operations Center.

Why fractional instead of full-time?

A full-time executive costs a full salary plus benefits, and the search can take months. A fractional executive can start in days, and you pay only for the hours you use.

What does it cost?

Fractional executive services start at $2,500 per month (10 hours, 3-month minimum). ZTLayer managed security starts at $99 per month.

Do you work outside the Midwest?

Yes. We are based in Sioux City, Iowa, and we work with clients across the U.S. and Europe. Most fractional work is remote, with on-site visits when they help.
