Program Leadership & Transformation
Cybersecurity leadership comes in many packages, whether it’s a CISO, a seasoned engineer, an architect, or a compliance expert – but not every organization is ready to bring every role in-house, or for every project.
With Sidekick Security, you gain hand-picked leaders with the background and skills you need, for whatever you need. Whether you’re a growing startup, an established growing organization, or one going through a turnaround effort, our team is your loyal, focused sidekick every step of the way.
How To Engage
Project-Based
Sometime it’s hard for anyone in your organization to find the time and focus to detach from the day-to-day alarms and operations to strategize, act, and iterate. Our team can take on analyzing and creating overarching strategic assessments and recommendations, working with key stakeholders to evolve an actionable plan, and engaging deeply with the organization to get it done.
Project-Based
Ideal for: Organizations needing temporary strategic analysis and support around a specific security project or challenge
What you get: A dedicated, experienced cybersecurity leader who provides strategic oversight, expert guidance, and hands-on management to ensure the success of your project.
Ongoing Program Leadership Support
Our team integrates into your organization with shared Slack, stand-ups, shared planning, and more to drive transformative change. We can satisfy the security and compliance part of your GTM and modernization strategy while identifying strategic security enhancements that drive your overall risk down. Predictable costs from month-to-month and built for dynamic change, just like your organization is.
Ongoing Program Leadership Support
Ideal for: Organizations looking for long-term, adaptable security leadership without the need for full-time, in-house staff.
What you get: Continuous access to a seasoned cybersecurity leader who partners with your team, providing long-term strategy, program management, and hands-on support, not just talk.
Alignment Drives Progress
Security-led growth is in large part about alignment. Alignment within a security team. Alignment across engineering, IT, and operations. Alignment of budget, strategic priorities, and roadmap.
“Siloes = efficiency” ~ No one, ever.
Alignment is the way forward. That being the case, our experts integrate seamlessly with your team, offering both strategic vision and tactical execution to enhance your security posture and drive cross-functional alignment.

What Your Sidekick Looks Like
Strategic Expertise
We’re former CISOs, staff engineers, and seasoned cybersecurity leaders who bring a wealth of experience and insight. Leaders and doers, not influencers and talkers. People who’ve learned in the trenches.
Scalable Solutions
Maximum flexibility means we can scale and change as you do. No cookie-cutter engagement needing complex change-orders to adapt when anything shifts. Instead, a sidekick that rolls with the punches.
Cost-Effective Leadership
Senior cybersecurity leadership is expensive and not everyone needs a traditional “CISO” role. Sidekick provides top-tier expertise at a fraction of the cost. Security should protect the bank, not break it.
Integrated Approach
We integrate seamlessly into your team, participating in daily operations via shared tools and channels like Slack, regular stand-ups, and shared OKRs, for consistent collaboration.
Proactive Risk Management
Risk management should align with your organization’s strategic opportunities. Understanding this, we help your security program be a leading force for change. That’s security-led growth.
"We’ve relied on Sidekick’s ongoing support for everything from day-to-day security guidance, vendor security questionnaire support, security tool tuning, policy development, and threat modeling. They have been a valuable partner on the security and compliance front every step of the way. Their team has helped us prepare for and pass critical audits like ISO 27001 and SOC 2, and ensured HIPAA compliance readiness. Their proactive, responsive approach has been crucial to Bobsled’s security success."
