Security-as-a-Service from Cybertex Security gives your organisation flexible access to real cybersecurity expertise without building a full in-house team. It is a subscription model that provides a monthly pool of expert hours which you can use across almost any security task, from incident response and security checks to configuration improvements and identity access clean-up. There is no fixed project scope, only practical support that adapts to your priorities.
At its core, the service is straightforward. You select how many hours of expert help you need. Those hours can then be applied wherever the risk is highest or where your internal team needs support. One month you might need assistance with incident response after a suspicious event. The next month you might focus on infrastructure and cloud reviews, IAM (identity and access management) clean-up, or strengthening email security. Cybertex Security delivers this work on demand, which means you avoid managing multiple suppliers or opening a new contract for every task.
This is not a service reserved only for emergencies. You can use your hours for preventative work, internal audits, implementation tasks and ongoing improvements, not just for active incidents. Many organisations combine the subscription with structured security assessments or compliance preparation to ensure that both day-to-day operations and long-term projects are consistently supported.
Security-as-a-Service vs CISO-as-a-Service
These two services solve very different problems.
CISO-as-a-Service is focused on strategy and leadership. A CISO (Chief Information Security Officer) helps shape your security roadmap, support risk management and align your organisation with regulatory frameworks such as DORA, NIS2, ISO 27001 and GDPR. They work with management and the board, translate technical risks into clear business language and guide decisions on investments, policies and priorities.
Security-as-a-Service is more operational and hands-on. While the CISO defines direction, Security-as-a-Service provides the practical work needed to execute that direction. It supports daily tasks across infrastructure, cloud, identity, incident handling and compliance preparation. This makes it more universal and easier to apply across many parts of your environment.
For many organisations, the two services work best together. The CISO sets the strategy, and the Security-as-a-Service subscription provides the engineering and sysadmin capacity to implement, refine and maintain the technical controls behind that strategy.
Extending your IT, sysadmin and security engineering capacity
In many small and mid-sized organisations, internal IT teams or MSPs focus mainly on keeping systems operational. Security tasks often become secondary. Patch management gets delayed, old accounts remain active and configuration warnings get ignored because there is simply no time.
Security-as-a-Service fills this gap. Your monthly hours can be used as an extension of your sysadmin and security engineering team. Cybertex Security can help with tasks such as:
- Reviewing and improving server, network and cloud configurations.
- Cleaning up IAM, removing unnecessary privileges and closing old accounts.
- Supporting your team during suspicious events or incidents, from initial triage to containment and follow-up.
- Reviewing email security controls, including anti-phishing settings and authentication policies.
- Assisting with audit preparation, including evidence collection and aligning technical configurations with policies.
All these activities fall under the same subscription, and you decide which areas to prioritise each month based on your current risks and operational pressures.
Pay only for what you use
Hiring a full-time CISO or senior security engineer is a major long-term investment. Traditional consulting projects can also be expensive and usually do not cover the ongoing work required after the final report is delivered.
Security-as-a-Service offers a more efficient alternative. You gain access to Cybertex Security’s full range of expertise across infrastructure, cloud, compliance, incident response and identity management, but you only pay for the tier you choose and the hours you use.
Where Security-as-a-Service fits in your organisation
For companies in Estonia, the Baltics and across the EU that are growing but do not yet have a full in-house security team, Security-as-a-Service becomes a flexible central layer of capability.
The result is not simply a reactive service but a stable, flexible security function that grows with your business. It strengthens your foundations, supports new projects and helps you respond quickly when unexpected events occur, all without the cost of hiring a full internal team.
If you want structured leadership on top of that, CISO-as-a-Service remains the right choice for high level decision making, regulatory alignment and strategic planning. Security-as-a-Service then provides the practical, universal layer of support that keeps your systems, identities and data aligned with those decisions every day.
