The essence of strategy is choosing what not to do. With BSG, you can avoid learning by yourself—often the hard way—all the essential lessons of cyber risk management, and jump right into solving your problems with a cyber security consulting firm's competence and determination.
Consulting security services may be required in two cases. First, when the company does not have the necessary expertise on board. And second, when it explicitly needs a third-party independent professional services firm to do the job. We offer our cybersecurity expertise in the form of audit and consulting services, incident response consulting, managed security services, network security professional services, etc.
All BSG consultants have at least a bachelor’s degree in cybersecurity, computer science, or a related field. Then, CISSP and CISA are the most relevant for the consulting work of all the prestigious certifications our security experts hold. Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) provides a broad and profound understanding of organizational processes and security controls. Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) enables our audit quality and brings IT audit standards and guidelines to our work.
We charge only for the time we spend doing the job. There is no extra cost because of how big your business is or how much money it makes. Project prices vary from 2500 to 7500 USD, the average being roughly 5000 USD. We offer a discount for recurring services and a volume discount to regular clients.
Consulting project duration depends on its scope and objectives: how many systems, networks, applications, business processes, and physical locations we need to cover in the engagement. An average consulting project takes about 2-3 weeks to complete. The report with the project results and recommendations comes during the following week.
Yes, we provide fractional CISO services for organizations that need executive-level security leadership without full-time commitment. Our fractional CISOs handle strategic security planning, board reporting, security program management, compliance oversight, incident response coordination, and security budget planning. This is ideal for startups, mid-sized companies, or organizations experiencing security leadership transitions.
Absolutely. We provide strategic guidance and hands-on support for SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance programs.

Yes, we offer both proactive incident response planning and reactive incident response support. Proactively, we develop incident response plans, playbooks, and run tabletop exercises to prepare your team. During active incidents, we provide technical investigation, containment guidance, remediation strategy, and post-incident review.

Yes, security roadmap development is a core strategic advisory service. We conduct security maturity assessments, identify gaps, prioritize initiatives, and create 12-24 month security roadmaps with budget estimates. Our roadmaps align with business objectives and compliance requirements while providing practical, actionable steps. We use frameworks like NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and CIS Controls to benchmark your security posture.
Yes, we help organizations develop board-level security reporting frameworks and executive dashboards. We translate technical security metrics into business-relevant KPIs that boards understand. Our consultants can prepare quarterly board presentations, respond to board security questions, and help establish security governance structures. This is particularly valuable for organizations without a CISO or when board visibility into security is required for compliance.
We provide pre-certification audit services to help companies prepare for the audits according to ISO 27001 ISMS, PCI DSS, and many other security standards. We also assist our clients in engaging with external auditors and successfully passing certification audits.
