CISO-as-a-Service
Senior cybersecurity leadership for ISPs and telecom operators that cannot justify a full-time hire - but cannot afford to operate without one.
CTDISR-2025 Mandates a CISO. We Provide One.
PTA's CTDISR-2025 requires every licensed telecom operator to appoint a Chief Information Security Officer responsible for implementing cybersecurity policies, conducting audits, and ensuring company-wide awareness. For smaller ISPs and emerging operators, a full-time CISO is not financially viable.
ISP World provides fractional CISO services - senior cybersecurity leadership on a retainer basis, calibrated to your size, budget, and compliance obligations.
