Security & Compliance
engineered for production.
We help engineering teams ship secure software and reach compliance certifications without the program becoming a black hole. Our work covers threat modeling, secure architecture review, IAM hygiene, audit logging, evidence automation, and the auditor-facing readiness work to clear SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, or HIPAA. We treat security as code: controls live in repos, evidence collection is automated, and your team owns it after we leave.

How a security & compliance engagement runs.
Gap assessment
Map current state to target framework (SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / HIPAA). Identify control gaps, policy gaps, and evidence gaps.
Controls implementation
AWS Config rules, CloudTrail logging, IAM least-privilege baseline, MFA enforcement, encryption at rest/in transit, and secret-scanning in CI.
Evidence automation
Vanta or Drata integrated with your AWS / GitHub / HRIS / endpoint-management. Evidence collected automatically; auditor-facing dashboard live.
Policy & training
Policy templates customized to your business, employee security training, and code-of-conduct sign-offs.
Audit readiness & support
Pre-audit dry run, auditor introductions, and Q&A support during the actual audit window.
Senior engineering, production-grade outcomes.
Senior squads only
No bait-and-switch. The engineers in your kickoff are the ones writing your code - typically 8–15 years of production experience.
Production-grade by default
Tests, observability, CI/CD, and infra-as-code from sprint one. We do not bolt on quality at the end.
AWS-native engineering
We build on AWS where it makes sense and on managed services where they make you faster. We are pragmatic, not dogmatic.
You own everything
Code, docs, infra accounts, design files, runbooks - handover is a deliverable on every engagement, not an afterthought.

Security & Compliance engagement questions.
How long does SOC 2 actually take?
SOC 2 Type I: 6–10 weeks. Type II: 6–9 months total (6+ months observation period required). We compress the readiness work to 6–10 weeks; the rest is the observation window.
Vanta or Drata?
Both are excellent. Vanta has broader integrations; Drata has stronger workflow automation. We help you pick during the gap assessment based on your stack.
Can you run pen tests?
We coordinate pen tests with our partner firms (CREST-certified) for application and infrastructure testing. Findings feed directly into our remediation backlog.
Do you handle HIPAA?
Yes - HIPAA requires BAAs, encryption, access controls, audit logs, and breach response. We deploy HIPAA-eligible AWS services with the BAA in place. Often paired with SOC 2 since the controls overlap.
What if our developers resist security tooling?
We integrate at the IDE and CI layer (Semgrep, Snyk, GitGuardian) so feedback is fast and contextual - not a wall of audit findings every quarter. Adoption is much higher when security feels like a teammate, not an auditor.
