Secure by design, compliant by default
Security & Compliance Services
We embed security into your development lifecycle: threat modeling, penetration testing, IAM design, and compliance readiness for SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, and more.
Get StartedWhat We Deliver
How We Approach Security & Compliance
Most startups think about security after the breach or the enterprise sales call that asks for a SOC 2 report. By then, the cost (in engineering time, legal exposure, and lost deals) is significantly higher than if security had been built in from the start. We help startups treat security as a product requirement, not an afterthought.
We know the difference between security theatre and security that actually protects users.
Compliance is not security, but they are related. We help startups achieve SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, DPDP, and HIPAA compliance by building the controls auditors look for into your actual products and processes, not by creating a folder of policies that nobody reads.
Who is this for
Startups that handle financial, health, or personal data. Companies approaching enterprise sales that need a SOC 2 report to close deals. Fintech and healthtech companies with regulatory requirements. Any product that stores user data and takes that responsibility seriously.
How We Work
Security Assessment
We start with a structured assessment of your current security posture: application architecture, infrastructure configuration, access controls, secrets management, and development practices. This produces a prioritised risk register.
Threat Modeling
We run threat modeling workshops to identify attack surfaces, data flows, trust boundaries, and potential threats specific to your product. The output is a threat model that guides every subsequent security decision.
Penetration Testing
We conduct application-layer penetration testing covering OWASP Top 10, API security, authentication flaws, authorisation bypass, and business logic vulnerabilities. You receive a detailed report with reproduction steps and remediation guidance.
Remediation & Hardening
We work alongside your engineering team to fix identified vulnerabilities, not just hand over a report. For each finding, we provide the code-level fix, review the implementation, and verify the vulnerability is closed.
Compliance Readiness
We map your existing controls to the requirements of your target framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA) and produce a gap analysis. We then help you close the gaps with the right policies, controls, and technical implementations.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does SOC 2 readiness take?
SOC 2 Type 1 (a point-in-time assessment of your controls) typically takes 3–4 months from gap analysis to audit. Type 2 (evidence of controls operating over a period of time) requires an additional 6–12 months of audit period. We help you run the most efficient path through both.
What is a penetration test?
A penetration test is a simulated attack on your application. We attempt to exploit vulnerabilities the same way a real attacker would: bypassing authentication, escalating privileges, extracting data, and compromising the system. You receive a detailed report of every finding with severity ratings and fix guidance.
Do we need SOC 2 as a startup?
You need SOC 2 if you sell to US enterprises or handle data on their behalf. It is often a contractual requirement in procurement. If you are pre-revenue or selling to SMBs, a full SOC 2 audit may be premature, but implementing the underlying controls early is always worthwhile.
What is India's DPDP Act and how does it affect us?
India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP) 2023 requires companies that process the personal data of Indian residents to implement consent management, data minimisation, and breach notification processes. If your users are in India, you need DPDP compliance. We help you implement the required technical controls.
How long does an application security audit take?
A comprehensive application security audit covering architecture review, code review of critical paths, and manual penetration testing typically takes 2–3 weeks for a mid-sized application. You receive the report within 5 business days of the testing phase completing.
What is PCI DSS compliance and do we need it?
PCI DSS is required if your application processes, stores, or transmits payment card data. If you use Stripe or Razorpay and never touch raw card data, you are typically covered by SAQ A, the lightest compliance tier. We help you determine which PCI scope applies to your product and achieve it.
