Apollo Information Systems is an intelligence-led cybersecurity consultancy and managed services provider that delivers tailored security solutions across planning, implementation, and operations. For more than two decades the company offers strategic security consulting, vCISO services, assessments and testing, security program development, technology deployment (SIEM, XDR/MDR), managed detection and response, incident response, digital forensics, and election-security support for state and local governments, education institutions, and enterprises. Apollo focuses on modular, mission-aligned security engagements—assess & advise, implement & secure, monitor & detect, and respond & recover—to strengthen clients' security posture and optimize security investments.

📋 Description

• Serve as a trusted advisor to client stakeholders, helping define and advance cybersecurity strategy across multi-month and multi-year engagements. • Develop prioritized, business-aware security roadmaps that mature client posture over time. • Advise on governance, risk, and compliance — aligning programs to frameworks such as NIST CSF 2.0, CIS Controls, ISO 27001, CMMC, HIPAA, or PCI DSS. • Translate technical risk into clear business language for executives and boards. • Own the advisory relationship for assigned clients, driving cadence, measurable progress, and demonstrable risk reduction. • Partner with assessors and engineers to ground recommendations in technical reality and validate remediation. • Guide clients through security program development — policy, process, architecture direction, and tooling strategy. • Support incident readiness, tabletop exercises, and post-incident program improvement as needed. • Contribute to the maturation of Apollo’s advisory methodology, frameworks, and deliverable templates. • Mentor junior team members and share knowledge across the practice. • Stay current with emerging threats, regulatory change, and the evolving security technology landscape.

• Cybersecurity experience, including client-facing advisory, consulting, or security leadership • Demonstrated ability to develop and communicate cybersecurity strategy and roadmaps to executive audiences. • Deep working knowledge of one or more major frameworks (NIST CSF, CIS Controls, ISO 27001, CMMC) and how to operationalize them. • Strong understanding of security architecture, controls, and risk across on-premises and cloud environments. • Exceptional written and verbal communication; able to lead executive and board-level conversations. • Experience managing long-term client relationships and multiple concurrent engagements. • Preferred: Senior certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CCSP, or CISA. • Prior vCISO, security manager, or security architect experience. • Experience in regulated industries or the public sector. • Familiarity with cloud security across Azure, AWS, GCP, and M365.
