Methodology & Assumptions

Risk Exposure

Calculated from the estimated number of incidents per year (based on company size) multiplied by the average cost per incident you specified.

Risk Reduction (vCISO Impact)

A fractional vCISO reduces incident probability by 65% through proactive security leadership, policy implementation, and incident response planning.

Compliance Savings

Annual cost avoidance from compliance audits, fines, and legal fees for selected frameworks. Loi 25: $22.5K, SOC 2: $55K, ISO 27001: $40K.

ROI & Payback

ROI is calculated as total annual benefit divided by vCISO investment (shown as a range). Payback period is the optimistic scenario (minimum vCISO cost).
