For MSP partners

A CISO bench your clients can borrow — under your name.

Your engineers run the environment. Your clients now ask for the things engineers should not have to own: written security programs, AI governance, compliance readiness, board reporting, cyber-insurance attestation. ForEffect provides that bench, white-label or co-branded, so the answer to “can you help with this?” is always yes.

How partnership works

Your relationship, our executive.

01

Qualify

You spot the need — a questionnaire, an audit, a board request — and bring us in.

02

Scope

We scope directly with you or with the client, under your paper or ours.

03

Deliver

ForEffect executes; your engineers implement; the client sees one team.

04

Retain

Ongoing vCISO retainers add recurring revenue to the account you already own.

Questions we hear

Frequently asked

White-label or co-branded?
Either. Some partners prefer the client to see one team under the MSP’s name; others introduce ForEffect as a specialist partner. We follow the account relationship.
Do you compete with MSPs?
No. We do not run environments, sell hardware, or provide help desk. The bench exists so that governance, compliance, and executive work stop landing on your engineers.
How is it priced to the partner?
Per-client scopes or a monthly bench retainer, with margin room for the partner. Scoped in the first partner conversation.
