Cybersecurity & AI Strategy
The Problem:
Many security programs lack business alignment. AI initiatives are moving fast, but without security leadership or clear priorities, they result in silos and budget shortfalls.
Our Approach:
We define and deliver strategic roadmaps that:
Integrate AI risk, zero trust, and business resilience
Provide CISO-level guidance without full-time headcount
Align initiatives to executive and board priorities
How It Helps:
You get stakeholder buy-in, clear direction, and funding clarity for both traditional and AI-driven cybersecurity programs.
Policy Development & Implementation
The Problem:
Security and AI policies are often inconsistent, outdated, or too generic to enforce—leaving gaps across departments and audits.
Our Approach:
We deliver customized, audit-ready policies:
Mapped to your real business use cases
Built on best-practice templates (ISO, NIST, CIS, NIST AI RMF)
Delivered with full implementation and staff training support
How It Helps:
Provides defensible documentation that’s easy to adopt and enforce—improving compliance and culture.
vCISO / Fractional CISO
The Problem:
Not every organization can justify a full-time CISO, but many need strategic security leadership to mature their programs.
Our Approach:
Symosis provides vCISO support with:
Embedded CISO-level leadership
Board and executive reporting
Program development, oversight, and staffing guidance
How It Helps:
You get top-tier security leadership, executive alignment, and program momentum—without long-term cost or complexity.
Regulatory Compliance
The Problem:
Regulatory landscapes are complex, and many orgs struggle to meet overlapping requirements across HIPAA, PCI, NIST, SOX, and others.
Our Approach:
We simplify compliance with:
Framework gap assessments and readiness reviews
Remediation planning and policy/tool alignment
Crosswalks between standards to reduce duplicate effort
How It Helps:
You stay audit-ready across multiple standards while reducing internal workload and risk exposure.
Risk Management & Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM)
The Problem:
Vendor risk is one of the top sources of breaches, yet many organizations lack a consistent onboarding, assessment, and monitoring process.
Our Approach:
Symosis delivers full TPRM lifecycle support:
Vendor intake, risk scoring, and due diligence workflows
Integration with tools like LogicManager, ServiceNow VRM, or custom dashboards
Ongoing risk mitigation and documentation
How It Helps:
Reduces third-party risk, improves contract compliance, and enables faster vendor onboarding with clear audit trails.
Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery (BCP/DR)
The Problem:
Organizations often don’t test or maintain recovery plans—leaving critical operations vulnerable to downtime.
Our Approach:
We build and validate continuity programs through:
Playbook creation for critical business functions
RTO/RPO definition and asset prioritization
Tabletop exercises and stakeholder walkthroughs
How It Helps:
Minimizes downtime and revenue loss during crises and demonstrates organizational preparedness.
Privacy Programs
The Problem:
Data privacy laws (CCPA, GDPR, HIPAA) are evolving fast, but many teams lack scalable ways to manage data use, mapping, or impact modeling.
Our Approach:
We operationalize privacy by:
Designing privacy programs and governance workflows
Performing data mapping, DPIAs, and PIA reviews
Embedding controls in AI, SaaS, and data lifecycle tools
How It Helps:
Reduces regulatory fines, improves customer trust, and enables secure data innovation.
