Interim CISO

Interim CISO coverage, starting now.

Full leadership coverage during a search or transition.

An interim CISO steps in when your security leader has left or is out and the program cannot pause. AZEN provides full leadership coverage during the search or transition: keeping strategy on track, managing the team and vendors, handling customer and board obligations, and making sure nothing critical drops. It is for companies that need a credible security leader in the seat now and want continuity, not a gap. Engagements are structured to start quickly and to hand off cleanly to your permanent hire.

What is included

Everything below is owned by AZEN, not handed back to your team as a to-do list.

  • Full security leadership from day one, not an advisory role
  • Continuity for your team, your vendors, and your roadmap
  • Board and customer obligations covered through the transition
  • A clean, documented handoff to your permanent CISO
  • An honest view of what your next hire actually needs to be

How it works

01

Talk

The situation and how fast you need coverage. A call to confirm fit and timing.

02

Step in

AZEN takes the seat, gets current fast, and stabilizes the priorities that cannot slip.

03

Hand off

Full coverage through the transition and a documented handoff to your permanent leader.

Who it is for

Companies whose CISO has just left or is on leave, and teams mid-transition that cannot afford a leadership gap in security.

What you get

No gap. The program keeps running, the board stays informed, and your permanent hire inherits an organized handoff.

Questions, answered

How quickly can you start?

Interim engagements are built to start quickly. The first call establishes the timeline and scope so coverage begins without a gap.

Is this full leadership or advisory?

Full leadership. An interim CISO makes decisions and owns the program, unlike an advisor who guides from the side.

Can you help us hire the permanent CISO?

Yes. Sitting in the role gives AZEN a clear view of what your next hire needs to be, and the engagement includes a clean handoff.
