Engineering advisory capability

Secure Platforms, Engineered for Assurance.

We partner with leadership teams to design and deliver secure digital platforms with governance-aligned operating models, stronger risk posture, and audit-ready control traceability.

What we deliver

Secure Digital Platforms

Design and delivery patterns that improve platform resilience while preserving operational control.

  • Portal architecture shaped for identity, authorisation, and tenant isolation requirements.
  • Control-aware service boundaries supporting regulated operating models.
  • Deployment patterns built for continuity, observability, and governance oversight.

Security Architecture & Assurance

Architecture decisions aligned to risk posture and assurance obligations from inception.

  • Control mapping across business risk scenarios and technical architecture layers.
  • Assurance artefacts structured for procurement, audit, and governance review.
  • Independent challenge of key design assumptions and residual risk.

Threat Modelling & Control Design

Threat-informed control design that prioritises high-consequence attack paths.

  • STRIDE-informed threat modelling with clear trust boundary definitions.
  • Adversary behaviour mapping informed by MITRE ATT&CK techniques.
  • Control design decisions linked to measurable risk reduction outcomes.

Secure SDLC & Delivery Governance

Delivery governance that embeds security and quality controls into day-to-day execution.

  • Security-by-default standards integrated into backlog, design, and release workflows.
  • Review and approval checkpoints with accountable ownership and traceability.
  • Evidence generation aligned to assurance and programme reporting needs.

Integration & API Security

Integration pathways engineered for trust, least privilege, and predictable controls.

  • API authentication and authorisation models aligned to enterprise risk controls.
  • Data flow governance for internal and third-party integrations.
  • Control coverage for keys, webhooks, and machine-to-machine trust boundaries.

Operational Readiness & Evidence

Operational handover designed for sustained assurance and audit-ready traceability.

  • Runbooks, control ownership, and escalation pathways defined before go-live.
  • Operational metrics linked to risk indicators and control effectiveness.
  • Evidence packs structured for executive and regulatory review cycles.

How we work

  1. 1

    Discover

    Establish risk context, programme objectives, and operating constraints to define delivery scope with clarity.

    • Risk and control baseline with decision-making criteria.
    • Programme scope, assumptions, and governance charter.
  2. 2

    Design

    Shape architecture, control model, and threat-informed target state before implementation acceleration.

    • Target architecture and control blueprint.
    • Threat model outputs with mitigation priorities.
  3. 3

    Deliver

    Execute secure implementation with validation gates to maintain quality, control integrity, and traceability.

    • Implemented capabilities with security validation evidence.
    • Release readiness assessment and residual risk position.
  4. 4

    Assure

    Support operational handover, evidence readiness, and continuous improvement of control effectiveness.

    • Operational handover pack with ownership and run-state controls.
    • Assurance dashboard inputs and improvement backlog.

Security alignment

Our security practices are aligned to established industry frameworks and methods to support informed risk decisions, consistent control implementation, and assurance-ready delivery evidence.

  • STRIDE-driven threat modelling to structure risk identification and treatment options.
  • MITRE ATT&CK-informed adversary mapping to test control relevance and coverage.
  • OWASP Top 10-informed secure design and code review practices.
  • Secure SDLC governance across design, build, test, and release checkpoints.
  • Runtime control instrumentation to support monitoring, escalation, and evidentiary traceability.

Automation-augmented engineering workflows

Our engagement model uses automation-augmented engineering workflows to improve delivery cadence while maintaining governance discipline. Candidate code changes, design artefacts and control configurations are generated and assessed within controlled pipelines, then validated through human review gates before release decisions are made. Security testing gates include static analysis, dependency scanning, secrets detection and targeted regression tests aligned to risk scenarios. Changes are traced from requirement to deployment through auditable approval records, producing clear evidence for internal assurance and procurement review. This approach supports faster implementation and consistent quality without removing accountable engineering judgement. It also strengthens cross-team coordination by standardising control checkpoints, escalation paths and documentation quality across architecture, development, security and operations.
