Where Europe's
Leading CISOs
Share, Evaluate
& Advance Together
CISO Stars is a selective, non-profit professional network for senior Chief Information Security Officers across European corporations. We strengthen collective cyber defence, elevate the standing of the CISO profession, and give members early access to the most innovative cybersecurity technologies in the world — all within a structured, legally compliant framework.
Members are compensated for their advisory and evaluation work, at rates commensurate with their seniority — fully structured to comply with employment obligations across European jurisdictions.
Membership is selective and available to senior security leaders only.
Strengthen European Cyber Defence
CISOs who learn from each other act faster. Our peer intelligence network enables members to share validated operational knowledge — threat intelligence, control failures, vendor assessments — in a structured, confidential framework that benefits every member organisation.
Elevate the CISO Role
The CISO profession deserves formal recognition, board-level authority, and professional infrastructure to match its responsibility. CISO Stars advocates for — and embodies — the standing European security leaders have earned. Members are compensated for their expertise, not expected to donate it.
Structured, Compliant Knowledge Sharing
Our engagement protocols are designed with employment lawyers and compliance specialists. Every roundtable, working group, and peer advisory session operates under frameworks that protect employer confidentiality and professional obligations — so knowledge flows freely and safely.
Early Access to Best-in-Class Technology
Members receive curated, non-commercial introductions to the most innovative cybersecurity vendors in the world — before sales motions begin. Relationships start with independent evaluation and genuine curiosity. Technology earns its place through merit, not marketing budget.
