The AI Security Department, DIY

Six pillars. Build them yourself — or have them run for you.

These are the same pillars CISO Marketplace runs as a managed programme, published as build guides with the real architecture in them. Each stands alone; together they are one programme, where every stream feeds a register a human owns.

C2

The Operator Seat — the command layer over all six

Six capabilities are only a department if one seat conducts them — intake, the gates, one register, and observability over every AI channel.

Security Program Pillars Featured

The Operator's Manual — C2 Command Layer

The capstone above all six pillars: one seat that conducts the whole department. Intake from four employee doorways, visible approval gates, one living risk register, and observability into every AI channel — with the agent layer and MCP wiring that runs it.

Pillar 05 — The Incident Response Operating System

An operating system for the worst day — the right people in one room, on one clock, with 90% of the hardest choices already made. Built on NIST 800-61 Rev. 3, with the offline runbook, the notification clocks and a ready-to-run tabletop.

Pillar 04 — The AI-SOC Operating System

Read every alert, resolve the routine, escalate only what needs a human. A reducer that overlays your existing SIEM, EDR, identity and cloud — human-gated, auditable, and capped at an autonomy level you can defend.

Pillar 01 — The Compliance Operating System

Map controls once, satisfy every framework. A continuous, registry-driven compliance program across SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI, CMMC, DORA and NIS2 — plus the ISO 42001 and EU AI Act layer most guides still omit.

Pillar 06 — The Fractional CISO Operating System

The capstone hub: a human-owned register that aggregates every security stream into board-legible, quantified risk. The 2026 pricing ladder, the first 90 days, the five-page board deck, and the layer the AI vCISO platforms structurally cannot replace.
