Zero Trust Architecture Design & Validation

What is about?

Zero Trust eliminates implicit trust in your networks, workloads, and users. Effective Zero Trust implementation requires architectural planning, segmentation enforcement, and validation through adversarial simulation—not just policy creation.

What we can offer

  • End-to-end Zero Trust reference architecture design

  • Microsegmentation enforcement across VLANs, K8s, and SD-WAN

  • Identity & access modeling (SSO, MFA, JIT, PIM, ABAC/RBAC)

  • Zscaler ZIA/ZPA, Microsoft Entra, Okta policy simulation

  • Red Team trust boundary validation (e.g., egress routes, bypasses)

  • Deliverables:

    • ZTA Architecture Blueprint

    • Policy Enforcement Matrix

    • Threat Emulation Report (pre/post ZT implementation)

DevSecOps / Secure Software Supply Chai

What is about?

DevSecOps integrates security into every stage of software delivery pipelines—from code commit to production. It is not just about tools, but building resilient engineering practices that detect, prevent, and respond to threats in CI/CD, containers, APIs, and cloud-native apps.

What we can offer

  • Secure pipeline design: GitHub Actions, GitLab, Azure DevOps

  • Toolchain integration: SAST, DAST, SCA, IAST, SCA

  • IaC misconfiguration testing (Terraform, Helm, Kustomize)

  • Secrets scanning, Git history audit, pipeline secret protection

  • Runtime protection: eBPF/Falco integration

  • Deliverables:

    • DevSecOps Reference Pipeline

    • Secure IaC Baseline Templates

    • CI/CD Security Policy Gates

    • Attestation Reports for Release Audit

Cloud Security Architecture Review

What is about?

Modern cloud environments are highly dynamic and multi-tenant, often suffering from excessive IAM permissions, overexposed storage, or misconfigured security groups. A secure cloud design must enforce least privilege, isolate workloads, and integrate with CSP-native controls.

What we can offer

  • Cloud misconfiguration testing across AWS, Azure, GCP

  • IAM privilege escalation analysis and identity graphing

  • Data security: encryption-at-rest/in-transit, key rotation audit

  • Container security: K8s PSP, PodSecurityAdmission, runtime threat detection

  • Integration with Sentinel, SCPs, Azure Policies

  • Deliverables:

    • Cloud Security Misconfiguration Report

    • IAM Attack Path Graph

    • Remediation-as-Code Recommendations

Threat Modeling & Attack Path Engineering

What is about?

Threat modeling proactively identifies risks before systems are built. By decomposing your applications and infrastructure, we can simulate realistic attack paths, validate controls, and prioritize mitigations based on business risk.

What we can offer

  • STRIDE, LINDDUN, and PASTA-based workshops

  • TMaaC integration with Git/Jira/CI pipelines

  • DFD and attack path graph generation using Neo4j or Graphviz

  • Red Team simulation of modeled threats

  • Integration with OneTrust, IriusRisk, or custom tooling

  • Deliverables:

    • Threat Model Pack (DFD + Threat Tables + Abuse Cases)

    • Attack Graphs and Exploit Path Maps

    • Developer-focused Mitigation Sheet

Compliance-Driven Control Validation

What is about?

Security compliance (e.g., ISO 27001:2022, NZISM, PCI DSS, NIST 800-53, SOC 2, Privacy Act) requires technical controls to be implemented and demonstrably effective. Many organizations lack the evidence or mapping required to pass audits or transition between versions.

What we can offer

  • Mapping control frameworks to technical environments

  • Evidence generation (logs, configs, scripts, screenshots)

  • ISO 27001:2022 Annex A gap analysis & implementation

  • NZISM control test and assurance support

  • SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria validation and retainer-based support

  • Deliverables:

    • Control Validation Matrix

    • Technical Evidence Bundle

    • Compliance Readiness Report

    • Audit Support Response Playbook

AI/ML System Security & Privacy Consulting

What is about?

AI/ML systems present unique risks: data poisoning, prompt injection, model inversion, and privacy leakage. Without formal testing, these risks go unnoticed. ISO 27001:2022 (A.5.36) and modern privacy laws increasingly mandate the security and explainability of automated decisions.

What we can offer

  • Threat modeling of ML pipelines and LLM agents

  • Membership inference and shadow model attacks

  • Prompt injection testing for GPT/Claude-based systems

  • Explainability and fairness audits (SHAP, LIME)

  • Differential privacy and federated learning security review

  • Deliverables:

    • AI System Threat Report

    • Adversarial Simulation Findings

    • Risk Treatment Plan

    • Compliance Mapping (ISO, GDPR, Privacy Act)

Quantum Security Readiness Advisory

What is about?

Quantum computing will render RSA, ECC, and other classical cryptography obsolete. The NIST PQC standardization is near final, and proactive organizations must prepare crypto migration plans now to protect long-term confidentiality

What we can offer

  • Cryptographic inventory across apps, APIs, TLS, and VPN

  • Key entropy audit and exposure mapping

  • TLS handshake analysis and downgrade attack tests

  • Simulation of quantum decryption timing (QUBO modeling)

  • PQC transition strategy (NIST PQC Round 4 candidates)

  • Deliverables:

    • PQC Readiness Report

    • Crypto Inventory & Exposure Graph

    • Migration Roadmap

    • Secure Key Management Architecture (pre/post-PQC)
