Security Architecture & Engineering

We deliver security architecture and engineering that improves assurance without slowing delivery cycles. By working across platforms, pipelines, and applications, we design and implement controls that address real-world threats and compliance needs—including identity management, configuration hardening, logging, monitoring, and response. We integrate DevSecOps practices and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) so that controls are repeatable, testable, and visible, directly supporting accreditation and audit requirements. The result is a stronger security posture with faster detection and response capabilities across cloud and hybrid environments.

Practical Security Engineering

Our goal is practical: adopt hardened patterns and apply consistent controls across your entire estate. We combine development, platform engineering, and security architecture to increase confidence in your compliance outcomes.

• Automated Protective Controls: We use IaC and automation to identify risks earlier, implement protective controls, and improve detection at the edge, platform, network, and application levels.
• GitOps-Driven Assurance: GitOps is integrated into our engineering to ensure configurations remain repeatable and assured, with configuration control and monitoring providing a coherent operational security view.
• Compliance Validation: We establish confidence that controls are implemented and remain aligned to design intent through secure configuration baselines and automated validation using tools like Terraform, GitLab, and Chef.
• Framework Alignment: We map practical controls to assets based on established frameworks such as NIST 800-53, CIS, CSA, and NCSC, tailoring implementation to fit your specific operating constraints.

Protective Monitoring & SIEM Operations

Where protective monitoring is required, we help organisations build integrated event logging and SIEM capabilities aligned to a robust operating model.

• Integrated SOC Services: We deliver event collection, normalisation, analytics, and dashboards using industry-standard platforms such as Microsoft Sentinel, Elastic Stack (ELK), Wazuh, and Graylog.
• Actionable Playbooks: We go beyond simple alerting by developing response and recovery playbooks that allow teams to monitor and respond effectively to incidents.
• Global Operations: Our experience includes delivering "follow-the-sun" SIEM services for secure cloud platforms supporting global, 24/7 operations.

Agile Cyber Delivery

We deliver security architecture using agile lifecycles, aligning risk management and platform hardening with your application teams through shared backlogs and delivery cadences. Our integrated squads provide end-to-end capability, including:

• Security Risk Practitioners & Architects
• DevSecOps Engineering Leads
• SIEM Administrators
• Scrum Masters & Programme Managers

Our team has successfully delivered rapid GitOps-based deployments for National Critical Infrastructure and security assurance for public-facing UK Government-aligned platforms.
