Build secure · AppSec & DevSecOps Consulting
Embed security into developer workflows without slowing down shipping velocity
Security works best when it is built directly into the workflows your developers already live in. We partner with engineering organizations as a hands-on AppSec extension: embedding automated security checks into CI/CD pipelines, tuning SAST/SCA gates to eliminate false positives, developing customer-centric secure coding guidelines and documentation tailored to your exact stack, and establishing audit-ready Secure SDLC governance.
Outcomes
What you walk away with
Automated CI/CD security gates catching critical vulnerabilities on pull requests before merge
Pragmatic shift-left security culture that reduces developer friction and post-release rework
Customer-centric, living secure coding guidelines and developer documentation written for your team's stack
Audit-ready Secure SDLC policies and evidence mapped directly to SOC 2 (CC8.1) and ISO 27001 (A.8.25-A.8.32)
Coverage
What's in scope
DevSecOps & CI/CD Pipeline Automation
- Automated PR security scanning: SAST (Semgrep, SonarQube), SCA (Trivy, Snyk), and secrets (Gitleaks, TruffleHog)
- Rule curation and false-positive suppression so developers only get alerts that actually matter (<60s PR feedback)
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and container image scanning in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or CircleCI
- Automated deployment gate policies, branch protections, and software bill of materials (SBOM) generation
Secure Coding Standards & Governance
- Customer-centric secure coding standards and developer documentation customized to your framework and codebase
- Reusable secure library patterns (centralized sanitizers, authz helpers, cryptographic wrappers)
- Security Champions program structure, onboarding materials, and developer security workshops
- Secure SDLC (SSDLC) policy documentation and audit evidence packages for SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and HIPAA
Deliverables
- Turnkey CI/CD security pipeline workflows (GitHub Actions / GitLab CI) with custom rule configurations
- Customer-centric Secure Coding Handbook & Developer Documentation written for your team's stack
- Secure SDLC governance manual and auditor-ready control evidence mapping
- Developer training workshop recording and security champions playbook
Standards & frameworks
- OWASP SAMM
- NIST SSDF (SP 800-218)
- OWASP ASVS
- SOC 2 CC8.1
- ISO 27001:2022 A.8.25-A.8.32
- SLSA
Ideal for
- Fast-growing SaaS teams that want an enterprise-grade AppSec program without hiring a full-time AppSec team
- Engineering organizations preparing for SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, or enterprise vendor security reviews
- Teams suffering from noisy scanner alerts or repetitive security flaws slipping into production
FAQ
AppSec & DevSecOps Consulting questions
Will CI/CD security gates break our builds or slow down our engineers?
No. We believe noisy security tooling causes alert fatigue. We configure gates with a tiered approach: blocking PRs only on high-confidence, critical issues (e.g. leaked secrets, known critical RCEs), while routing informational checks to background reports.
How are your secure coding guidelines different from generic OWASP checklists?
Generic guidelines get ignored. We write customer-centric, framework-specific documentation using real code snippets from your application's architecture (e.g. Next.js server actions, FastAPI dependency injection, Prisma/ORM queries) showing developers exactly how to write secure code by default.
How does this help our SOC 2 or ISO 27001 audit?
SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria CC8.1 and ISO 27001:2022 Controls A.8.25 through A.8.32 mandate documented Secure SDLC policies, developer security training, and vulnerability management in code. We provide the complete policy documentation and automated pipeline evidence auditors look for.
