We Succeed Together

For CISOs: We Are Your Operational Reinforcement

The CISO role today is defined by immense pressure from both the threat landscape and regulatory requirements. At Stratu, our goal is to make your daily operations easier by acting as your technical “right hand.” We know your time is best spent on strategy and governance. That is why we take care of the operational groundwork and deliver the data you need for management reporting and compliance oversight.

Security Spending Map

Get a visual overview of where your security budget delivers the greatest impact. We help you prioritize investments where they most effectively reduce risk.

Operational Execution

We turn your policies into technical reality. We operate your Fortinet network, secure your Microsoft Entra ID, and monitor your SOC, ensuring compliance is built into daily operations.

Documented Control

We do more than paperwork. We ensure your policies are actually enforced in practice - from firewall rules to backup procedures - by bridging the gap between management and IT operations.

A Workday Under Constant Pressure

Are you caught between strategy and server operations?

The CISO role today is defined by immense pressure from multiple directions. The board demands reporting on business risk, while the IT department struggles to keep up with patching and monitoring.

The three biggest challenges we help you solve:

  • Management fatigue: Many CISOs are overwhelmed by up to 20 different, non-integrated security tools that create more noise than clarity.

  • The Gap Between Policy and Technology: It is easy to write a policy for MFA or network segmentation, but ensuring it is actually implemented correctly across the entire environment is a far more demanding task.

  • Lack of Resources: With a shortage of more than 7,000 cybersecurity professionals in Denmark, it is impossible to recruit your way out of the operational pressure.

We aim to be our customers’ best decision

We are proud to work with

Your Operational Engine Room

We Execute While You Lead

We see ourselves as the technical engine that brings your strategies to life. We bridge the gap between your governance requirements and the realities of daily IT operations.

Our Role as Your Partner:

  1. Removing the Operational Burden: We take over fundamental tasks such as patch management, backup verification, and firewall operations, so you can be confident that the foundational “hygiene” is always in place.

  2. ITSOC as Proof of Compliance: Through our SOC delivery (Arctic Wolf), you gain 24/7 monitoring independent of your own infrastructure. This provides reliable data for NIS2 incident reporting and compliance documentation.

  3. NIS2 Contractual Addendum: We have made the division of responsibilities simple. Our contracts include dedicated NIS2 addendums that clearly define which Article 21 controls we manage and which remain your responsibility.

From Overwhelmed to In Control

How We Help Reduce the Pressure

We know you do not need another “project.” You need a process that runs reliably on its own.

1. Alignment & Scoping (Week 1–2) We map your policies against our technical services. We identify which controls can be delegated to us (e.g. Disaster Recovery or network security) and document them within your ISMS.

2. Implementation of Compliance Evidence (Week 3–4) We establish the reporting framework. You gain access to the dashboards and reports (e.g. ISAE 3402) needed for management reporting and external auditors.

3. Continuous Support (Ongoing) We become part of your operational cycle. We participate in your incident response exercises and provide data for your ongoing risk assessments. We are there when you need technical backup and support.

Your Strategic Tool

Stratu Security Spending Map

Many CISOs struggle to explain why security budgets need to increase. With our Security Spending Map you gain a tool that speaks the language of the board:

  • Demonstrate Value: We map your budget directly against your actual risk profile. How much are you investing in prevention versus detection?

  • Identify Untapped Potential: Many organizations pay for overlapping technologies while major security gaps remain open. We identify where budgets can be reallocated to achieve more effective protection.

  • A Foundation for Decision-Making: We deliver a visual roadmap that makes it easy to show executive management exactly which risks they are accepting if they choose not to invest.

Frequently asked questions:

CISO Advisory (FAQ)

Yes. We deliver data in the formats required to integrate with platforms such as Risma, ComplyCloud, or NorthGRC, so you do not have to spend time on manual data entry.

Large consulting firms often focus on legal frameworks and high-level processes. We focus on what actually helps relieve operational pressure in day-to-day work. That includes technical implementation and documenting that the controls work in practice. We are the team that follows through on recommendations and makes them happen within the infrastructure.

You can download the tool yourself, but we also offer introductory workshops where we map your current setup together with you. Contact us for a dialogue about your needs, and we will provide a concrete proposal for a suitable engagement.

Audit-Ready Every Day

From Manual Documentation Hunts to Digital Audit Trails

When audit season begins or regulators announce their arrival, the CISO’s daily work often turns into a manual hunt for documentation. At Stratu, we remove this friction by making evidence and compliance reporting an integrated part of our delivery. No more unmanageable spreadsheets.

We Deliver the Evidence Your Auditors Require:

  • Audit Reports (ISAE 3402 & 3000): You get direct access to our certified reports, documenting Stratu’s internal controls. This means you can “inherit” the controls without having to audit us yourself.

  • Documented Restore Tests: We provide validated logs of your DRaaS tests, proving your actual recovery capability (RTO/RPO) to authorities and the board.

  • Incident Data for CFCS: In the event of critical incidents, we have the necessary logs ready for reporting within the legally required 24-hour timeframes.

CISO Rådgivning FAQ

Hvad laver en CISO?
En CISO, Chief Information Security Officer, har typisk ansvaret for virksomhedens overordnede informations- og cybersikkerhed. Rollen spænder fra strategi, risikostyring og compliance til rapportering over for direktion og bestyrelse. En væsentlig udfordring er samtidig at sikre, at de besluttede sikkerhedspolitikker rent faktisk bliver implementeret teknisk. Stratus CISO-rådgivning fokuserer netop på at bygge bro mellem governance og IT-drift.
En ekstern partner kan overtage eller understøtte de operationelle sikkerhedsopgaver, så CISO’en kan bruge mere tid på strategi, governance og risikostyring. Stratu arbejder blandt andet med patch management, backup-verificering, firewall-drift, Microsoft Entra ID, SOC-overvågning og teknisk dokumentation.
En sikkerhedspolitik har begrænset værdi, hvis den ikke bliver implementeret i infrastrukturen. Det kræver løbende kontrol af eksempelvis firewall-regler, adgangsrettigheder, MFA, netværkssegmentering, backup og overvågning. Stratus tilgang er at koble virksomhedens governance-krav direkte til de tekniske sikkerhedsløsninger og dokumentere, at kontrollerne fungerer.
Rapporteringen bør oversætte tekniske sikkerhedsdata til risici og beslutninger, som ledelsen kan forholde sig til. Stratu arbejder blandt andet med dashboards, rapportering, revisionserklæringer og et Security Spending Map, der kobler sikkerhedsinvesteringer til virksomhedens risikoprofil.
Et Security Spending Map skaber overblik over, hvordan virksomhedens sikkerhedsbudget fordeles, og hvilke risici investeringerne reducerer. Det kan blandt andet bruges til at identificere overlappende sikkerhedsværktøjer, manglende sikkerhedskontroller og områder, hvor budgettet kan anvendes mere effektivt.
En vigtig del er at gøre dokumentation til en løbende del af IT-driften frem for en manuel opgave op til en audit. Stratu leverer blandt andet revisionserklæringer, dokumentation af restore-tests, SOC-data og rapportering, som kan anvendes over for ledelse, revisorer og myndigheder.
Ja. Stratu beskriver, at data kan leveres i formater, der kan anvendes i GRC-platforme som blandt andet Risma, ComplyCloud og NorthGRC. Det reducerer behovet for manuel indtastning og gør dokumentationen lettere at integrere i virksomhedens eksisterende complianceprocesser.
Stratu kan kortlægge virksomhedens politikker mod konkrete tekniske ydelser og tydeliggøre ansvarsfordelingen gennem NIS2-kontrakttillæg. Samtidig kan SOC-overvågning, Disaster Recovery, netværkssikkerhed og løbende rapportering levere den tekniske dokumentation, CISO’en skal bruge i arbejdet med NIS2 og virksomhedens ISMS.
