Heelr connects organizations with identity-verified security professionals, targeting the gap between when <a href=\"https:\/\/justfineinfotech.com\/fr\/nigerian-businesses-to-pay-for-whatsapp-messages-from\/\" title=\"Nigerian businesses to pay for WhatsApp messages from...\">businesses<\/a> need specialized expertise and how long it typically takes to find someone trustworthy<\/p>\n<p>The platform draws on the existing network of Cyberr, a cybersecurity professional community, and covers services such as penetration testing, virtual CISO work, compliance preparation and security assessments. Professionals must pass identity verification and credential checks before they can take on paid engagements. Payment protection is built in as well, intended to reassure both clients and contractors during a project.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement, Laurent Halimi, who serves as CEO of both Heelr and Cyberr, argued that procurement practices haven\u2019t kept pace with the cybersecurity field itself. He said companies still lean on referrals, email chains and manual contracting to find specialized help during time-sensitive moments, and that current freelancer platforms don\u2019t do much to confirm professionals are who they claim to be or actually hold the expertise they list.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why now<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to the release, the global market for cybersecurity services tops $86 billion. Demand for contract-based expertise is being pushed by recurring compliance needs, including customer security questionnaires, ISO 27001 certification, pre-launch penetration testing, and rules such as NIS2 and DORA<\/p>\n<p>The release also links demand to the speed of AI-assisted product development. As companies, including newer and smaller ones, build and launch products more quickly, their security needs are outstripping what in-house teams can always cover<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who it\u2019s built for<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Heelr is designed for business leaders, founders, operations teams and IT managers who need security expertise on a project or fractional basis rather than a full-time hire. It\u2019s also open to cybersecurity consultants, independent specialists and boutique firms seeking vetted client work and tools to manage engagements<\/p>\n<p>Since the platform is built on Cyberr\u2019s established network, the release states Heelr launches with a verified pool of professionals already available, rather than needing to build one up<\/p>\n<p><a
