Questions we hear most
Straight answers on how we work, how fast we can move, and what an engagement looks like.
How quickly can you get a Cyber Security specialist on-site?
Call before 11am and the right person can be on-site with you the next morning. We already know who is available and we have already spoken to them, so contract requirements move in hours, not weeks. Single specialists or pre-assembled teams, across SOC, Security Architecture and Security Engineering, anywhere in the UK.
Why do senior Cyber Security roles take so long to fill?
Senior cyber vacancies stay open around 46 days longer than other IT roles, and of the 160,035 UK cyber roles advertised in the last 12 months, 37% were hard to fill. The people you want are rarely answering adverts. We work from a live network of specialists we already know and have already screened, which is how briefs that have sat open for months close in days.
What is the difference between a fixed-price Statement of Works and day rates?
With day rates you buy time and carry the delivery risk yourself. With a Statement of Works you buy an outcome: we agree the scope, price it fixed, build the right team and deliver against milestones, with a senior Cyber project manager scoping the work, validating quality and signing off every stage. You know what you are getting and what it costs before the work starts.
What is a fractional CISO and when does one make sense?
A fractional CISO is a board-level security leader working with you one to three days a week rather than full time. It suits organisations that need security strategy owned, certifications such as ISO 27001 or Cyber Essentials driven to the line, and credible answers for the board, without the cost of a full-time hire. All of the seniority, a fraction of the cost.
What makes invitise different from a generalist firm?
We are a capability partner, not a volume supplier. We go deep in three disciplines, Security Architecture, SOC and Security Operations, and Security Engineering, and we work with a select group of organisations at any one time. We commit to briefs we can do justice to, every person is thoroughly screened before we present them, and we stay embedded through delivery as your single point of contact.
Which Cyber Security roles do you cover?
SOC Analysts at L1, L2 and L3, SOC Engineers, Security Architects across enterprise, cloud and solution, Security Engineers, DevSecOps, Identity and Access Management, Threat Intelligence, Incident Response, GRC and Cyber Programme Management. Contract and permanent, single specialists or whole teams, UK-wide, including SC and DV cleared professionals where the environment requires it.
Every new enquiry is handled at senior level. You'll speak to someone who knows the market, knows the people, and will tell you straight whether we can help.
We have over 20 years in specialist markets. We know Cyber Security, we know what good delivery looks like, and we can have the right person on-site with you tomorrow if you need them today.
