Architecture + Engineering

Engineering that closes the gaps assessments find.

Cloud hardening, threat modeling, Zero Trust design, detection engineering, and incident readiness, delivered hands-on. The same advisors who set direction can review the Terraform, write the detection, and run the tabletop.

At a glance

  • Cloud hardening and IaC review
  • Threat modeling and attack mapping
  • Zero Trust and identity architecture
  • Detection, tooling, and IR readiness

Who it's for

Built for teams like yours.

  • Teams running AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud who want their configuration reviewed by someone who has secured production environments.

  • Organizations that have bought security tools but are not confident they are tuned, integrated, or watched.

  • Engineering leaders who need threat models and architecture decisions documented before the next build or audit.

What's included

Deliverables that do work.

Every engagement is scoped from these building blocks. Combine the ones you need.

  • Cloud Security & Hardening

    Configuration review against CIS Benchmarks, identity and network design, and infrastructure-as-code analysis with fixes you can merge.

  • Threat Modeling & Attack Paths

    Structured analysis with STRIDE, PASTA, or attack trees, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK so defenses target the techniques that matter.

  • Zero Trust & Identity Design

    Identity strategy, conditional access, segmentation, and least-privilege design aligned with NIST SP 800-207.

  • Detection Engineering

    SIEM and EDR rule development, alert tuning, threat hunting playbooks, and coverage mapping against ATT&CK.

  • Security Tooling Assessment

    Evaluate and optimize the EDR, SIEM, SOAR, and IAM stack so licensed capability becomes working protection.

  • Incident Readiness & Testing

    Technical runbooks, tabletop exercises, and penetration test scoping, management, and interpretation.

How it works

Four moves, start to finish.

  1. Map

    Inventory assets, identities, data flows, and trust boundaries. Build the threat model that tells us where to look first.

  2. Assess

    Review configuration, code, architecture, and detection coverage against benchmarks and real attacker techniques.

  3. Engineer

    Implement the fixes with your team: hardened configuration, new detections, identity changes, and tooling integrations.

  4. Verify

    Validate through testing, tabletop exercises, and metrics, then document the decisions so the next engineer understands why.

Frameworks and standards we work in

  • MITRE ATT&CK
  • CIS Benchmarks
  • DISA STIGs
  • NIST SP 800-207
  • NIST SP 800-61
  • AWS & Azure well-architected

Outcomes

What changes when we're done.

  • Fewer attack paths and a documented reason for every control that remains.

  • Detections that fire on real techniques and stay quiet otherwise.

  • Identity and network designs that stand up to Zero Trust scrutiny.

  • A team that has rehearsed the incident before it happens.

FAQ

Questions about technical security.

Do you perform penetration tests?

We scope, manage, and interpret penetration tests and deliver AI and application testing directly. For large network and physical assessments we partner with specialist testers and stay accountable for the outcome.

Which cloud platforms do you work with?

AWS and Microsoft Azure, including Microsoft 365 identity and collaboration security, with FedRAMP and Zero Trust architectures delivered on both.

Will you implement changes or just recommend them?

Both. Many engagements include hands-on implementation alongside your engineers, with change control and documentation so the work is maintainable.

How do you measure detection coverage?

We map existing detections to MITRE ATT&CK techniques relevant to your threat model, test them, and report coverage, gaps, and noise before and after tuning.
