Cybersecurity Strategy at Board Level
We build security programs that survive CISO turnover.
We help boards and C-level executives make cybersecurity decisions: budgeting, project prioritization, technology roadmaps. Andrzej Gab and Zygmunt Gorszczyński have 50 years of combined experience — Deputy CISO at a bank, Hub Leader at EY, defense sector projects. We speak business language, not just technical jargon.
Cybersecurity strategy isn’t a shopping list of tools — it’s about resource allocation, risk management and organizational culture change. It requires business understanding and the ability to translate technical risk into board language.
Andrzej Gab worked as Deputy CISO at VeloBank, building a security program from scratch in a highly regulated environment. Zygmunt Gorszczyński, as Hub Leader at EY, led teams on compliance projects for financial, energy and defense sector clients (Top Secret clearance). Both hold CISSP and CCSP certifications — they understand not just technology, but risk management and governance.
We work with boards that want to understand real risk (not panic at each media headline) and make rational investment decisions. We help build 3-5 year security roadmaps, design security function organization (SOC, GRC, IAM) and estimate budgets. We support vendor selection, technology offer evaluation and deployment project oversight.
Our consulting is not an audit with a report “for the drawer” — it’s strategic partnership. We work as board or CISO advisors, participate in key meetings, support decision-making and ensure planning continuity even during staff transitions.
