Why weeks, not months

AI-assisted evidence review, one client portal

Every Virtual CISO Pune engagement runs on the Praxis-Q compliance platform. You upload evidence per control, AI scores it against the requirement, and your auditor reviews in the same workflow — from scoping through to the issued, publicly verifiable certificate.

AI evidence scoring

Every upload is scored against the control before an auditor sees it — gaps surface in minutes, not at the review meeting.

One client portal

Scoping, evidence, auditor queries and status live in one place. No email chains, no spreadsheet trackers.

Auditor sign-off

Praxis-Q auditors review inside the same workflow, so review rounds shrink and the certificate issues sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Virtual CISO and how does it differ from hiring a full-time CISO in Pune?
A Virtual CISO is a senior security architect engaged part-time or as-needed, providing strategic guidance without permanent headcount cost. For Pune SMEs and startups, this model reduces salary overhead by 60–70% while delivering enterprise-grade security governance. You access top-tier expertise without fixed HR burden.
How does Praxis-Q ensure DPDP Act 2023 compliance through vCISO engagement?
Our vCISO builds your Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) framework, consent management protocols, and data processing records as mandated by DPDP 2023. We align policies with CERT-In incident reporting timelines and establish breach notification workflows compliant with DPDP Section 6 requirements.
What is the typical vCISO engagement timeline for Pune-based companies?
Fast-track model: vCISO onboarding in 2–4 weeks. Initial scoping takes 1–2 weeks; governance framework build spans 8–12 weeks. Ongoing advisory continues monthly. Full roadmap typically matures over 90 days, with ongoing maturity reviews quarterly.
Are there Pune-specific regulatory considerations Praxis-Q addresses?
Yes. Pune has a high density of fintech, IT services, and manufacturing firms. We address RBI fintech compliance, SEBI rules for investment platforms, CERT-In mandatory reporting for critical infrastructure, and DPDP requirements for data handling across geographies.
