About Rhodigital

Security leadership by someone who's actually run a security program at scale.

Rhodigital is a fractional CISO and cybersecurity advisory practice built by a security executive who led IT and security for a $1.3B non-profit operation. Same playbook, applied to regulated SMBs and mission-driven organizations.

Founder Story

Built by an operator, not a slide-deck shop.

Rhodigital was started by a security executive who spent years running IT and security for a $1.3B annual non-profit operation with federal funding obligations, donor PII, and a board that needed assurance — every quarter — that controls were holding.

That means the advisory you get here isn't theoretical. We've sat in your chair: negotiated with auditors, briefed a board during a security incident, scrambled to recover after a third-party breach, and shipped a compliance program with three engineers and a deadline.

The mission-driven segment is the most under-served corner of cybersecurity, and that's where we work best. If you're a regulated business, a non-profit with donor data, or a defense supplier entering CMMC scope — we'll meet you where you are and bring execution, not a binder of templates.

How We Work

Four operating principles. Same on every engagement.

Whether you're engaging us for a fractional vCISO cycle or a one-off assessment, this is what you'll get.

1

Business-outcome first.

Every recommendation ties to a metric your leadership cares about — board reporting, contract wins, audit pass, donor trust. No vendor pitches, no FUD.

2

Small surface, deep execution.

We pick the next critical control and execute it with you — not a fifty-item roadmap you'll never finish. Repeat every quarter.

3

Honest about tradeoffs.

If a certification isn't worth its cost right now, we'll say so. If you don't need a vCISO engagement and a single assessment will do, we'll scope down.

4

Senior, every cycle.

The person scoping the engagement is the person delivering it. No junior bait-and-switch; no learning-on-your-dime. You get a senior security executive, every call.

Team

Today: a small senior bench.

We're intentionally small. Every Rhodigital engagement is led by a senior practitioner. As we grow, the bar stays the same — every person who'd touch your program has operated an environment like yours, not just written about one.
