What are the benefits of Virtual Services?

There may be legal and/or contractual reasons to include a virtual service role within your organisation – such as a Facility Security Controller and/or a Personnel Security Controller. In some organisations, these roles do not warrant a full-time resource and finding qualified people to work part-time and be suitably flexible may be challenging. Similarly, asking existing staff to wear multiple hats may be ineffective as they may struggle to keep up with the necessary obligations and information.

If you do not have a legal and/or contractual reason to fulfil a role, you may still need support on an occasional basis – for a peak in demand or to bring additional expertise. For some organisations having access to a Virtual Information Security Manager or Virtual Chief Information Security Officer on a part time basis offers an attractive solution to the difficulty of recruiting their own members of staff.

Ascentor offers virtual services to satisfy legal, contractual and business requirements for specific capability. The service can be for a fixed number of hours or days per week, month or year, or on a call-off basis with a fixed number of days available over a fixed period. The service can be used to fulfil the duties of a role or to perform an agreed set of tasks.

Ascentor offers virtual assistant services for, Facility and Personnel Security Controllers Information Security Managers and Chief Information Security Officers.

  • Meet legal and contractual mandates
  • Gain immediate advice and support
  • Respond to demands quickly
  • Access on-hand expertise
  • Save money on resources
  • Lighten the burden on staff
