Security is a practice,
not a feature

Security is not an afterthought — it is built into every system from the first line of code. We follow defense-in-depth principles and design systems with security boundaries at every layer.

• Input validation and output encoding on all data paths
• Parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection
• CSRF and XSS protection built into application frameworks
• Secure defaults: HTTPS, secure cookies, strict CORS policies

We implement least-privilege access across all systems. Every user, service, and API key gets only the permissions it needs — nothing more.

• Role-based access control (RBAC) with granular permissions
• Multi-factor authentication support where applicable
• API key rotation policies and scoped tokens
• Service-to-service authentication with short-lived credentials

Comprehensive audit logging and real-time monitoring ensure visibility into system behavior. Anomalies are detected early and escalated appropriately.

• Structured audit logs for all critical operations
• Real-time application and infrastructure monitoring
• Automated alerting for anomalous behavior patterns
• Log retention policies aligned with business requirements

We collect and store only the data necessary for system operation. Data is classified, encrypted at rest and in transit, and subject to clear retention policies.

• Data classification and handling procedures
• Encryption at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.2+)
• Data minimization: collect only what is needed
• Clear retention schedules and deletion procedures

Production systems run on hardened infrastructure with automated backups, redundancy, and disaster recovery procedures tested regularly.

• Automated daily backups with point-in-time recovery
• Infrastructure-as-code for reproducible environments
• Regular security patching and dependency updates
• Geographic redundancy for critical systems

We carefully evaluate all third-party services and maintain a vendor registry with security assessments. Dependencies are minimized and regularly audited.

• Vendor security assessment before adoption
• Minimal dependency policy: fewer moving parts
• Regular dependency vulnerability scanning
• Documented vendor inventory with access reviews

We maintain a documented incident response plan with clear escalation paths, communication templates, and post-incident review procedures.

• Documented incident response runbooks
• Clear escalation paths and on-call rotation
• Client notification procedures for relevant incidents
• Post-incident reviews with root cause analysis

We are happy to work under NDA and regularly do so. Confidentiality is a default expectation, not an exception.

• Standard NDA execution before project kickoff
• Confidential data handling throughout engagement
• Secure file sharing and communication channels
• Data destruction procedures at project conclusion
