Security leadership
without the full-time hire.
about cloud sapio
CloudSapio helps SaaS, AI, healthcare, fintech, and regulated businesses build security programs that win enterprise customers, pass audits, and reduce risk—without slowing the business down. We combine executive security leadership with hands-on execution, so your team can stay focused on building while we handle security and compliance.
HOW WE OPERATE
Built for companies
that need to move fast.
Senior expertise from day one
Every engagement is led by an experienced security practitioner. The person you meet on the first call is the person guiding your security program, reviewing policies, and helping you through audits.
Flexible engagements
Choose a one-time security sprint, a strategic monthly retainer, or an embedded vCISO. Scale your level of support as your business grows.
Practical, not theoretical
We focus on the work that moves your business forward. Whether that's SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, PCI DSS, or AI governance, we prioritize what matters most and leave unnecessary complexity behind.
Built around your team
Security should support the business—not slow it down. We work alongside your engineers, operations, and leadership teams to build programs people actually follow.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
Four principles that guide every engagement.
01
Security should help you close deals.
Compliance is often the price of doing business with enterprise customers. We build security programs that strengthen your business and help you move through procurement faster.
03
Keep it simple.
Good security doesn't have to be complicated. We remove unnecessary work, focus on what reduces risk, and give your team a clear path forward.
02
Advice is only valuable if it gets implemented.
We don't hand over a checklist and disappear. We stay involved, help your team execute, and make sure security improvements actually happen.
04
Built for where you are going
The right security program should support your next customer, your next audit, and your next stage of growth—not just today's requirements.
