Cybersecurity
Security work is finding the ways in before someone else does. For most businesses the real exposure is unglamorous — an old dependency, an over-permissioned account, a credential in a config file — not a sophisticated attack.
How we approach it
Map what you actually expose
Servers, domains, third-party integrations, forgotten staging environments. You cannot secure an inventory you do not have.
Fix the boring things first
Patching, access review, secret management, backups you have actually restored from. This is where most real incidents are prevented.
Test like an attacker
Authenticated and unauthenticated testing against the application, with findings ranked by what they would actually cost you.
Make it survivable
Logging, alerting and a written response plan. Assume something will get through and shorten the time to notice.
Common questions
What is the difference between a security audit and a penetration test?
An audit reviews configuration, code and process against known standards — broad and systematic. A penetration test actively attempts to break in, narrower but proving what is genuinely exploitable. Most organisations should start with the audit.
How often should we run security testing?
Annually as a baseline, and after any significant change to authentication, payments or infrastructure. Continuous dependency scanning should run on every build, because most vulnerabilities arrive through libraries rather than your own code.
Can you help with HIPAA or similar compliance?
We build to those requirements — access control, audit logging, encryption, appropriate hosting under a business associate agreement. Formal certification is issued by an accredited auditor; our role is making sure the software passes when they look.
