NOMINATION HIGHLIGHTS

I am pleased to nominate Framework Security for the Cybersecurity Excellence Award in the category of Virtual CISO (vCISO) Services. As a partner who has had the opportunity to observe their work closely, I can say without hesitation that Framework stands out for its professionalism, deep technical knowledge, and its ability to deliver real, measurable impact across a range of industries.
Framework Security offers more than advisory support. Their vCISO team delivers practical leadership and strategy, giving companies the tools and guidance they need to mature their cybersecurity programs. Whether helping early-stage companies prepare for SOC 2 certification or guiding established firms through complex compliance and risk frameworks, Framework provides tailored leadership that fits each client’s goals and culture.
Over the past year, I have seen Framework lead organizations through meaningful transformation. They help clients navigate regulatory expectations, respond to vendor due diligence, and build out cybersecurity roadmaps that align with business growth. Their approach is hands-on, thoughtful, and focused on outcomes.
What makes Framework exceptional is its ability to operate as a true extension of each client’s leadership team. Their vCISOs do more than assess risks. They translate security into business terms, build trust across departments, and ensure clients are prepared not just for audits, but for long-term resilience.
Framework also emphasizes education and collaboration. Their team takes the time to guide stakeholders through every step of the process. Clients walk away with stronger programs, but also with greater understanding and confidence in their own ability to manage security going forward.
In a field where many firms offer generic guidance, Framework delivers personalized expertise and executive-level support. They have earned the trust of startups and enterprises alike and consistently deliver results.
For these reasons and more, I strongly recommend Framework Security for recognition as an outstanding provider of Virtual CISO services.
