CyberCAAT · The Delivery Platform
The platform behind the posture score.
CyberCAAT is the governance, risk & compliance engine that powers every Transformyx engagement — Catwalk control mapping, a 140+ process governance register, evidence kept under chain-of-custody, and one defensible 200–850 score your auditors, regulators, and board all read from the same page.
Built to make the work auditable before the auditor asks.
Controls connect to NIST, ISO, CIS, HIPAA, CMMC, PCI, SOC 2, GLBA, and FERPA without duplicate evidence collection.
Recurring governance processes stay assigned, sized, and visible instead of disappearing between assessment cycles.
Executives get a single score and plain-language movement; auditors get the evidence chain behind it.
One control. Many frameworks. One proprietary overlay.
Traditional programs are serial — scope for HIPAA, re-scope for ISO, re-scope again for CMMC. CyberCAAT maps a control once and reuses it across standards, guidelines, regulations, and statutes at the state and federal level. A proprietary overlay keeps requirements connected, evidence reusable, and reporting consistent across audits, renewals, and board cycles.
The CyberCAAT Catwalk
One control, walked across many frameworks. One implementation can satisfy standards, guidelines, regulations, and statutes through a proprietary overlay that incorporates state and federal requirements without duplicating evidence.
140+ Process Register
Every recurring governance activity across 15 policy domains — with an action statement, the originating policy clause, periodicity, and effort estimate for each.
Evidence & Chain of Custody
Each artifact catalogued, timestamped, and mapped to the controls it satisfies — defensible under an auditor's red pen, not stored on a shared drive.
Policy Lifecycle
A 15-policy suite designed, versioned, acknowledged, and renewed on cadence — lifecycle-managed, not authored once and forgotten.
Continuous Posture Score
A single 200–850 number, trended over time, that translates technical posture into a sentence any executive or board can act on.
Board-Ready Reporting
Auditors get evidence, executives get narrative, boards get the number that matters — generated from the same source of truth.
The whole program, on one page of glass.
Fifteen policy domains decompose into 140+ defensible processes. Each row carries an actionable directive, an audit trace back to the clause that mandates it, an automation flag, a three-point effort estimate, and a delivery scope — so every governance obligation is owned, sized, and traceable.

Deliver = the vCISO performs it · Oversee = the vCISO governs, the team or MSP executes · Delegate = executed by internal staff, an MSP, or automation. The split is what makes a fractional engagement honest and sized correctly.
Security leadership, delivered as a service.
Twelve productized services, every one delivered on CyberCAAT. A discrete fixed-fee win lands the relationship; the recurring vCISO retainer and platform license are the core; add-ons and the IR retainer expand and protect it.
vCISO Retainer

Vendor / Third-Party Risk
Supplier inventory, tiering, due diligence, monitoring, and offboarding as a managed service.
Awareness & Phishing Program
Managed training, role-based modules, phishing simulations, and effectiveness metrics.
Security Advisory & Consulting
Board reporting, M&A cyber due diligence, and architecture & program review at the principal level.
Focus discipline — partnered, never built: penetration-test execution, deep DFIR forensics, 24×7 managed SOC, and audit attestation. We deliver readiness, coordination, and remediation around them — keeping the practice senior, lean, and conflict-free.
What it would cost à la carte.
Assemble this capability from separate specialist vendors and the bill runs like a full executive bench before you've hired anyone to run it. Delivered as one integrated program on CyberCAAT, it is a fraction of that, and it can replace a full-time CISO search outright.
Against the simplest benchmark: a full-time CISO search carries salary, benefits, recruiting, ramp, and retention risk. This program delivers comparable leadership plus the entire capability above — with no hire, no severance, and no ramp.
