United States, 23rd Apr 2025 – Sentry IT, an Atlanta-based CIO advisory and IT services firm, today announced the official launch of its new Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO) service. This offering provides organizations with on-demand access to seasoned cybersecurity leadership, helping them defend against sophisticated threats, meet regulatory requirements, and align security with business strategy—without the cost of a full-time CISO.
Led by Marlon Grigsby, a former CIO and CISO and now the CEO of Sentry IT, the vCISO service is designed for companies that need executive-level security leadership but may lack internal expertise or bandwidth to keep pace with today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape.
“Most mid-sized organizations can’t afford a full-time CISO—yet the threats they face are just as dangerous as those targeting Fortune 500s,” said Marlon Grigsby, CEO of Sentry IT. “Our vCISO service gives these companies a battle-tested cybersecurity leader who can assess risk, build a modern security roadmap, and protect the business—without adding overhead. We’re not just filling a role; we’re stepping in as a true partner.”
The Sentry IT vCISO service includes:
• Executive-level security strategy and leadership
• Risk assessments and maturity gap analysis
• Regulatory compliance guidance (HIPAA, NIST, CMMC, PCI-DSS, etc.)
• Security roadmap and program development
• Third-party vendor risk management
• Incident response planning and tabletop exercises
• Security awareness training and policy development
Sentry IT’s vCISO service is especially tailored to healthcare, legal, manufacturing, and public sector organizations that must meet strict compliance standards while modernizing legacy infrastructure.
Unlike traditional MSSPs, Sentry IT combines its cybersecurity services with deep CIO advisory expertise—ensuring security is tightly aligned with IT strategy, digital transformation, and business goals.
