Priced to Deliver by Kai London
Many organisations need security leadership but not a full-time CISO. This playbook covers how virtual and fractional CISOs scope engagements, assess clients quickly, deliver roadmaps that get implemented and report in a way that keeps the work going.

Getting to the most important risks in the first weeks.
Roadmaps that land
Prioritised plans matched to budget and capacity.

Pricing, contracts, liability and managing multiple clients.
This book offers general guidance and is not legal or commercial advice.
