About CISO Consulting
Saudi Arabia's premier cybersecurity governance, risk, and compliance advisory — empowering CISOs and security leaders since 2009.
Who We Are
CISO Consulting is a specialized cybersecurity advisory firm headquartered in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We serve financial institutions, government entities, and critical infrastructure operators seeking expert guidance in aligning with Saudi Arabia's national cybersecurity regulatory framework.
Our practice is built around one belief: effective cybersecurity governance is not a checkbox — it is a strategic capability. We bring the experience of former CISOs, regulators, and technical architects to deliver outcomes that matter to boards, regulators, and operations teams alike.
Our Platform — CyberPulse KSA
CyberPulse KSA is our intelligence and education platform, providing cybersecurity professionals across the Kingdom with real-time threat intelligence, compliance tooling, and expert knowledge resources. The platform integrates directly with national frameworks including SAMA CSF, NCA ECC, and the Saudi PDPL.
Our Services
GRC Advisory: Full-cycle governance, risk, and compliance programs tailored to SAMA Cyber Security Framework (CSF), NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls (ECC), and international standards (ISO 27001, NIST CSF, PCI-DSS).
