Listing updated . Checked by MSP Software .
Cynomi is an AI vCISO platform from Cynomi, a London-based company founded in 2021, designed for managed service providers, MSSPs, and vCISO consultancies. The platform automates security program management, compliance mapping across 40+ frameworks (NIST CSF, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, CMMC), risk quantification, third-party vendor risk assessment, and business continuity planning. Cynomi suits MSPs scaling security services without hiring additional full-time security leaders, and those wanting to standardise CISO-level advice across multiple clients through AI-embedded workflows that embed expert decision-making into repeatable processes.
The platform automates up to 80% of manual assessment and compliance work, performs benchmarking assessments reported to be 70% faster than traditional methods, and generates remediation roadmaps that connect risks to policies and compliance requirements. Security findings are automatically mapped to relevant compliance framework controls, and risk scores quantify business impact to guide prioritisation. Cynomi integrates with Tenable Nessus, Qualys, CrowdStrike Falcon Spotlight, SentinelOne, Rapid7 InsightVM, and other vulnerability scanners through data import and API connections, plus AWS Security Hub, Azure, GCP, and Microsoft Secure Score for cloud security assessment. PSA and ticketing systems connect via a public API enabling bidirectional task synchronisation, so compliance and vulnerability remediation tasks flow automatically into your existing workflows without manual data entry. The platform supports scheduled, recurring scans and generates branded, client-ready reports with QBR dashboards, helping MSPs move from one-off assessments to recurring security program subscriptions. Pricing is not published; MSPs should contact Cynomi for a quote based on engagement scope and client portfolio size. The company raised $37 million in Series B funding (2025) and operates from offices in London and Boston. Cynomi provides guided onboarding, dedicated account management, and access to vCISO Academy and GTM Academy training through their partner portal.
Cynomi competes with GRC platforms like Drata and audit-automation tools like Vanta in the vCISO space, but differs by embedding CISO methodology and risk-scoring logic directly into workflows rather than asking junior staff to make prioritisation calls. Pricing is not published, making comparison difficult; ask for a per-endpoint or per-site quote during evaluation. On a demo, confirm how it integrates with your existing RMM and PSA (especially bi-directional task sync), whether compliance framework coverage includes your target verticals, and whether the platform's reporting templates match your client-facing standards without custom development.

Cynomi does not publish unit-based pricing. Instead, pricing is based on the engagement type and scope, offered through four main models: one-time assessments, Cynomi Core, Cynomi Pro, and Third-Party Risk Management. The FAQ indicates vCISO services typically range from a few thousand pounds for one-time assessments to 30,000-120,000 pounds annually for ongoing security program management engagements. Factors affecting price include engagement scope, security maturity, compliance requirements, and team responsibilities. MSPs should contact Cynomi directly for a tailored quote based on their client portfolio and service model.
Cynomi integrates with PSA systems and ticketing tools through a public API that enables bidirectional task synchronisation. This allows remediation findings and compliance tasks to flow automatically between Cynomi and your PSA for coordinated workflow. The platform also accepts CSV file uploads from supported vulnerability scanners including Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7, CrowdStrike, and SentinelOne. For RMM platforms specifically, integration depends on the RMM vendor offering API or CSV export capabilities. MSPs should confirm with Cynomi that their specific RMM and PSA combination is supported during the evaluation phase.
Cynomi supports over 40 compliance and security frameworks including NIST Cybersecurity Framework, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, CMMC, and others. The platform maps assessment findings, vulnerabilities, and remediation tasks directly to the relevant framework controls and requirements. This allows MSPs to run compliance-focused client engagements and demonstrate progress against industry-standard benchmarks. Cynomi also includes Security Baseline templates aligned to major frameworks, which speeds up policy generation and compliance evidence collection.
Cynomi automates up to 80% of manual assessment and compliance work through context-aware assessment workflows that adapt based on client environment and industry. The platform integrates with vulnerability scanners and supports scheduled, recurring scans. Assessment results are automatically mapped to compliance frameworks, risks are scored, and remediation roadmaps are generated. Cynomi reports these assessments are 70% faster than traditional manual methods, allowing MSPs to cost-effectively scale security assessments across multiple clients without proportional headcount increases.
Cynomi offers guided onboarding, dedicated account management, and business hours support Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm EST. Training resources include technical documentation, comprehensive compliance checklists and framework guides, the vCISO Academy with free courses for security professionals, GTM Academy with playbooks and service delivery training, and a Partner Portal with go-to-market materials. Implementation emphasises smooth onboarding and ongoing optimisation with minimal operational disruption.
