Security Engineering
Security designed in, not bolted on.
Auth, access control, encryption, audit, hardening, and compliance-ready architecture — the kind of work that turns a security review from existential threat to checklist.
Secure Software Development
Engineering practices that prevent the obvious classes of bugs.
SDLC practices, threat modeling, code review for security, dependency hygiene, and the boring discipline that prevents most of the OWASP top 10 from ever shipping.
Authentication Systems
Auth done correctly — MFA, SSO, sessions, the lot.
Auth systems with MFA, SSO (OIDC, SAML), session management, account recovery, and the edge cases (email change, account merge) — built on Clerk / Auth0 / WorkOS or custom when needed.
Role-Based Access Control
Granular permissions without spaghetti.
RBAC / ABAC systems with role + permission registries, policy testing, and admin UI — designed to evolve as your customer base grows.
Secure API Development
APIs that resist the obvious attacks.
API design with auth, rate-limiting, input validation, output sanitization, and abuse detection — plus monitoring for anomalous patterns.
Audit Log Implementation
Append-only audit trails that hold up under scrutiny.
Audit logs across user actions, admin actions, and system events — append-only, tamper-evident, searchable, and exportable for customer / compliance review.
Data Encryption
Encryption at rest and in transit — done right, with key rotation.
KMS integration, field-level encryption for PII, envelope encryption for files, and proper key rotation. Not just "we use HTTPS."
Security Hardening
Close the obvious doors before they're tested.
CSP, HSTS, secure cookies, rate-limiting, dependency hygiene, infra hardening — the checklist that takes most teams from "vulnerable" to "adequate" in a focused sprint.
Compliance-Ready Architecture
SOC 2, ISO 27001, APPI — built into the architecture from the start.
Architecture and process design that maps to common compliance frameworks — data residency, access logging, change management, vendor management — so audit prep takes weeks, not quarters.
