Ive worked with a fractional CISO. He was scattered, but was insanly useful about setting roadmaps, writting procedure/docs, working audits and correcting us moving in bad directions.
Fractional is way better than none.

That’s more what a consultant is. A “Fractional C[insert function here]O is permanent or at least long-term. It just means the firm doesn’t have the resources and need for a full-time executive in that role.

Honestly, this concept has been wonderful for small to midsize companies.
