What we do
We help organisations reduce technical risk with proportionate controls, actionable remediation and security practices teams can sustain.
The service
Security work should reduce the most meaningful risk first, not chase every theoretical finding a scanner produces. We start by understanding what the business actually depends on — customer data, payment flows, production infrastructure — then assess against how a realistic attacker would try to reach it, rather than running a generic checklist disconnected from what's actually valuable to protect.
Assessments combine automated scanning with manual review of application logic, cloud configuration and access design, following OWASP methodology for web application testing. Automated tools catch known patterns quickly; manual review is where business-logic flaws, privilege-escalation paths and misconfigured trust boundaries actually surface, since these rarely show up in a standard scan.
Findings are translated into an owned remediation plan — ranked by exploitability and impact, assigned, and retested once fixed, so a report doesn't just sit in a shared drive. Identity and access work usually delivers the largest risk reduction per hour invested: enforcing least privilege, closing stale accounts and hardening authentication tends to close more real attack paths than any single application fix.
Incident readiness means having a tested plan before an incident, not drafting one during it — clear escalation paths, defined roles and a recovery sequence rehearsed at least once. For compliance-driven work, we map controls to the framework a customer or regulator actually cares about, such as SOC 2, ISO 27001 or GDPR, and produce evidence in the format their review process expects.

We stay technology-flexible and select the stack around your existing environment, security constraints, team capability and long-term cost.
Frequently asked
It includes penetration-testing techniques but goes further, reviewing cloud configuration, identity design and development practices alongside application testing. A standalone pen test tells you what's exploitable today; this also addresses why those gaps existed and whether the same pattern is likely to recur elsewhere in the environment.
A focused application or cloud environment review typically takes two to three weeks, including reporting. Broader engagements covering infrastructure, identity and multiple applications run four to six weeks. Remediation and retesting are scoped separately, since fix timelines depend on what the assessment finds and who owns each affected system.
Yes — we map existing and needed controls to the framework's requirements and help close gaps, but we don't issue the certification itself; that comes from an accredited auditor. Our evidence pack is built to align with what that audit process expects, which shortens the audit without replacing it.
We can do either. Some clients want the assessment and remediation plan only, then fix issues with their own engineering team; others ask us to implement the hardening work directly. Either way, we retest after remediation to confirm findings are actually closed, not just marked as done.
We don't provide 24/7 security operations monitoring or act as an outsourced SOC — that's a different, ongoing service. This engagement is assessment, hardening and compliance-readiness focused, with incident playbooks prepared in advance; live incident-response retainer coverage is scoped as a separate arrangement if needed.
