What is the difference between Deputy Ciso vs Security Manager?

AspectDeputy CisoSecurity Manager
CertificationsCISSP, CISM, CISACISSP, Security+
Work EnvironmentCorporate, enterprise-level security teamsVarious, including corporate and smaller organizations
ResponsibilitiesSupports Ciso, strategic planning, policy developmentImplementing security measures, managing security teams
Search IntentRoles supporting Ciso, senior security rolesOperational security management, team leadership

The Deputy Ciso typically supports the Chief Information Security Officer with strategic planning and policy development, often requiring advanced certifications like CISSP or CISM. Security Managers focus on implementing security measures and managing security teams. While both roles are vital in organizational security, the Deputy Ciso is more strategic and senior, whereas the Security Manager handles day-to-day security operations.

What is a Deputy CISO?

Deputy CISOs, or Deputy Chief Information Security Officers, are senior leaders who assist the Chief Information Security Officer in managing and overseeing an organization's information security program. They help develop security strategies, manage risk, lead incident response efforts, and ensure compliance with relevant regulations. Often, Deputy CISOs act as second-in-command and may represent the CISO in meetings or during their absence. Their role is crucial in maintaining the organization's cybersecurity posture and supporting the security team's daily operations.

What are the primary challenges a Deputy CISO faces when balancing strategic leadership with operational cybersecurity duties?

A Deputy CISO often navigates the challenge of aligning day-to-day incident response and operational security tasks with broader organizational cybersecurity strategies. This role requires balancing immediate risk mitigation with long-term initiatives, such as developing policies, overseeing compliance, and fostering a security-conscious culture. Deputy CISOs frequently collaborate with IT, legal, and executive teams to ensure security objectives support business goals, making strong communication and prioritization skills essential. Adapting to evolving threats while maintaining alignment with overall business direction is a common and rewarding aspect of the position.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Deputy CISO, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Deputy CISO, you need deep expertise in cybersecurity, risk management, and information security frameworks, typically supported by a bachelor's or master's degree in a related field and certifications like CISSP or CISM. Familiarity with tools such as SIEM platforms, vulnerability management systems, and compliance management software is crucial. Strong leadership, strategic thinking, and effective communication are essential soft skills for guiding teams and influencing stakeholders. These skills ensure robust protection of organizational assets and effective alignment of security strategies with business objectives.

Job description

Global FIELD CISO
This role is hybrid for NYC or Boston. All other locations are not being considered at this time.
About GitGuardian
GitGuardian is a global cybersecurity scale-up. The company is based in Paris, New York City, and Boston. Among our early investors who saw our market value proposition are the co-founder of GitHub, Scott Chacon, along with Solomon Hykes, Docker's co-founder. American and European top-tier VC firms have also invested in GitGuardian, which raised its Series C in early 2026.
GitGuardian helps enterprises close credential-based breach paths. It finds secrets wherever they live, prioritizes remediation based on rich context, and prevents new exposure across code, systems, and AI. The GitGuardian platform is already used by more than 600K developers worldwide and by 50 of the Fortune 500.
Your Mission:
  • Serve as GitGuardian's most senior external-facing security leader, engaging directly with CISOs, Deputy CISOs, AppSec leaders, platform engineering teams, and board-level stakeholders at Fortune 500 and highly regulated enterprise accounts
  • Build, recruit, and own GitGuardian's CISO and CTO Advisory Board - a world-class community of 6-10 executive security and technology leaders who provide strategic product guidance, market intelligence, executive introductions, and net new enterprise pipeline
  • Accelerate high-consequence enterprise deal cycles by bringing peer-level CISO credibility to complex, politically nuanced opportunities alongside our Strategic Enterprise AEs
  • Shape and continuously evolve GitGuardian's strategic enterprise narrative around developer security, secrets management, AI-assisted development risk, and non-human identity governance - refreshing positioning every 3-6 months as the market shifts
  • Represent GitGuardian externally at key industry forums (FS-ISAC, Health-ISAC, cybersecurity executive roundtables, and strategic conferences), strengthening brand credibility and executive relationships
  • Act as a strategic interpreter between the market, enterprise customers, Product, Marketing, Sales, and Executive Leadership - translating real-world CISO feedback into actionable product and positioning recommendations
  • Partner cross-functionally with Solution Engineering and enterprise sales leadership to elevate organizational credibility, GTM maturity, and executive communication quality across the field
Who You Are:
  • A former CISO, Deputy CISO, Head of AppSec, or senior enterprise security executive - or a highly respected security executive-facing leader from a leading cybersecurity company, with 10+ years in cybersecurity, enterprise security leadership, or strategic security advisory environments
  • Deeply technically credible: you have hands-on understanding of application security, developer security, secrets management, cloud security, DevSecOps, and non-human identity - you can engage substantively with technical CISOs, not just executive buyers
  • A calm, high-judgment executive presence: you build trust immediately with CISOs, VPs of Security, and AppSec leaders; you communicate with nuance, strategic clarity, and confidence - without ego or fear-driven messaging
  • A natural relationship builder and strong listener: extroverted and collaborative by nature, you thrive at cultivating long-term executive relationships and facilitating meaningful peer connections through roundtables, executive dinners, and advisory engagements
  • Consultative by instinct: you listen carefully to objections, navigate complex organizational dynamics, and respond with tailored, context-aware solutions rather than scripted vendor pitches
  • Ideally someone with buyer-side experience - a former GitGuardian customer or a security leader who has personally evaluated, deployed, or operationalized developer security tooling within an enterprise environment; you can say "I have lived this problem operationally" with full credibility
  • Based in New York City (strongly preferred; 3 days/week in-office for the first 6 months)
  • Energized by the pace, ambiguity, and cross-functional demands of a fast-growing cybersecurity scale-up
The interview process:
  1. Video call with our Talent Acquisition manager, to explore your background and evaluate mutual fit
  2. Intro call with our VP - GTM, to dive deeper into your experience, security philosophy, and executive approach, and to introduce you to our go-to-market vision
  3. Strategic advisory simulation, a live scenario with our GTM and SE leadership to evaluate executive presence, security depth, and consultative instincts in a realistic enterprise setting
  4. Final interview with our CEO, Eric - Eric will share GitGuardian's mission, vision, and strategic ambitions, and assess cultural and strategic alignment
Benefits
  • 25 days of PTO (employees are strongly encouraged to use all of it!)
  • 10 public holidays
  • 401(k) + 3% matching! with Empower
  • ♂ Health, Dental & Vision insurance (80% coverage), for individuals and their families
  • Short term & long term disability insurance (100% paid)
  • Travel policy including to our annual off-sites
  • Up to $300 towards your home office set-up
  • Monthly remote work stipend of up $70
  • Referral bonus of $4000 for any new Guardians we might hire thanks to you
  • Pre-tax commuter plan access
  • HSA and FSA plan access
