Steadfast Elevate
vCISO Service

When Security Matters, Elevate your Team

When it’s time to get serious about security—but a full-time CISO isn’t feasible—Steadfast Elevate delivers seasoned leadership and hands-on support at a fraction of the cost.

You’ll work directly with a cybersecurity executive who builds and matures your security program—backed by a team of skilled analysts who handle day-to-day execution. This model ensures high-level strategy is paired with efficient delivery, so you’re not paying vCISO rates for task-level work.

Steadfast Continuum
GRC Evolution Revolution

Automated GRC platforms like SecureFrame, Drata, and Vanta promise efficiency—but without the right strategy and execution, they often fall short. What begins as a vision for streamlined audits and real-time compliance can quickly devolve into underutilized tools, manual workarounds, and missed opportunities.

Steadfast Align

When SDLC Matters, Alignment Empowers Delivery

When secure development is critical—but building an in-house team or process feels overwhelming—Steadfast Align delivers expert guidance and hands-on support to keep innovation moving without compromising protection.

You’ll work directly with technology leaders who understand both business and security—backed by specialists who help embed security into every stage of your Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). This model ensures strategic alignment and practical execution, so your development teams stay focused on delivery while we safeguard the process.
