6. The Virtual CIO: What it Is and What it Isn’t w/ Darek Hahn

In this world of remote work that we’ve found ourselves in, there are likely a lot of companies that are looking around and wondering if they’ve got the right staff.

With a fully remote workforce comes a lot of new challenges in the IT space, and if you’re a smaller company, you may not be in the space to bring on a full-time CIO, but you still need the governance and expertise of a CIO.

Cue the virtual CIO. 

And there are a lot of managed IT service companies that offer some level of virtual CIO support. 

That’s why on this episode of The Virtual CISO Podcast, we sat down with Darek Hahn, President & CEO at VelocIT, to discuss: 

• The role of the CIO vs the CTO
• What makes a good virtual CIO
• When you know you need one
• The difference between a virtual CIO and a traditional MSP consultant.
