Five pillars of security

Every layer of your app & platform stack β€” engineered, automated, and hardened.

01 / THREAT MODELING πŸ—ΊοΈ

Threat Modeling & Architecture Review

Identify attack vectors before adversaries do. We run structured threat modeling sessions β€” STRIDE, PASTA, attack trees β€” against your applications and infrastructure, then translate findings into actionable mitigations.

  • STRIDE & PASTA threat modeling workshops
  • Architecture security review (design-time)
  • Attack surface mapping & prioritization
  • Security requirements & acceptance criteria
  • Data flow diagram (DFD) analysis
  • Third-party & supply chain risk assessment
02 / VULNERABILITY MGMT πŸ”

Vulnerability Management & Pen Testing

Continuous vulnerability discovery, prioritization, and remediation β€” from automated scanning in CI/CD to manual penetration testing and red team exercises at the application and infrastructure layer.

  • SAST, DAST & SCA in CI/CD pipelines
  • Container & infrastructure image scanning
  • OWASP Top 10 & API security testing
  • Penetration testing (web, API, network)
  • CVE triage & CVSS-based prioritization
  • Automated remediation ticket creation
03 / COMPLIANCE πŸ“‹

Compliance Automation & Posture Management

Turn compliance from a quarterly fire drill into a continuous, automated process. We implement CSPM, policy-as-code, and audit-ready evidence collection across your cloud and application stack.

  • Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM)
  • Policy-as-code: OPA, Sentinel, Kyverno
  • SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS automation
  • Continuous compliance evidence collection
  • Automated audit trail generation
  • Risk register & exception management
04 / IAM πŸ—οΈ

Identity, Access & Zero Trust

Implement least-privilege access across every layer of your stack β€” from cloud IAM to application RBAC, secrets management, and zero-trust network access β€” so credentials are never the attack surface.

  • Zero-trust network access (ZTNA) design
  • Cloud IAM: AWS IAM, Azure AD, GCP IAM
  • Privileged Access Management (PAM)
  • Secret management: HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager
  • SSO / MFA enforcement & SCIM provisioning
  • Service identity & workload federation (IRSA, WIF)
05 / RUNTIME 🚨

Runtime Security & Incident Response

Detect and respond to threats in real time β€” container runtime anomalies, network intrusion, API abuse, and insider threats β€” with automated playbooks that compress your MTTR from hours to minutes.

  • Runtime threat detection: Falco, Tetragon
  • SIEM integration: Splunk, Datadog, Elastic
  • WAF & API gateway security rules
  • DDoS protection & rate limiting
  • Incident response playbooks & runbooks
  • Forensic readiness & log preservation

How we engage

A phased approach that fits into your existing workflow β€” no disruption, no guesswork.

01

Security Posture Assessment

We start with a comprehensive security assessment β€” reviewing your application architecture, cloud configuration, IAM posture, and CI/CD pipeline for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and compliance gaps.

02

Threat Model & Risk Prioritization

We run threat modeling workshops against your highest-value assets, produce a prioritized risk register, and design a security architecture that addresses the most critical attack vectors first.

03

Implement & Automate Controls

We integrate security scanning into pipelines, deploy CSPM, enforce IAM least-privilege, stand up runtime detection, and automate compliance evidence collection β€” in 6–10 weeks.

04

Continuous Monitoring & Improvement

Security is never done. We maintain continuous vulnerability management, track your security KPIs, update threat models as your architecture evolves, and run regular penetration testing cycles.

Threat Modeling & Security Architecture

Threat modeling is the most cost-effective security investment you can make β€” finding design flaws before code is written costs 100x less than fixing them in production. We run structured sessions with your engineering and product teams.

Compliance Automation & CSPM

Continuous compliance is not a checkbox β€” it's an engineering discipline. We automate evidence collection, enforce policy-as-code, and give you audit-ready reports on demand.

  • βœ“CSPM: Wiz, Prisma Cloud, AWS Security Hub
  • βœ“Policy-as-code: OPA, Sentinel, Kyverno

Identity, Access Management & Zero Trust

Credentials are the #1 attack vector. We implement zero-trust principles across every layer β€” cloud IAM, application RBAC, machine identity, and secrets β€” so compromised credentials can't become a breach.

Why NodeOps360

We don't just consult β€” we commit. Here's what that actually means for you.

πŸ”

Security as Engineering

We treat security as a software engineering discipline β€” automated, measurable, and integrated into your delivery pipeline. No one-off assessments that gather dust.

πŸ—ΊοΈ

Design-Time Security

We engage at the architecture phase β€” not after the fact. Threat modeling during design is 100x cheaper than remediating vulnerabilities in production.

πŸ“‹

Audit-Ready by Default

Every control we implement generates automated evidence. Your next SOC 2 or ISO 27001 audit is a report export, not a fire drill.

⚑

Fast MTTD & MTTR

We instrument your environment for sub-15-minute detection and build automated response playbooks that contain threats before they escalate to breaches.

πŸ”

Full-Stack Coverage

We cover code, containers, cloud infrastructure, identity, and runtime β€” not just one layer. Most breaches exploit multiple layers; we defend all of them.

🎯

Risk-Driven Prioritization

Not every vulnerability is equal. We score, triage, and prioritize by real-world exploitability and business impact β€” so your team fixes what matters first.

Tools & technologies we master

Best-of-breed, proven at scale. We work with the tools your team already trusts.

Frequently asked

What's the difference between SAST, DAST, and SCA?+
SAST (Static Application Security Testing) scans source code for vulnerabilities without running the application. DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) attacks a running application to find runtime vulnerabilities. SCA (Software Composition Analysis) identifies vulnerable open-source dependencies. All three are complementary and we integrate all of them into your CI/CD pipeline.
How do you help us achieve SOC 2 compliance?+
We implement the technical controls required for SOC 2 Trust Service Criteria β€” access management, change management, logging, monitoring, and incident response β€” and automate evidence collection using tools like Drata or Vanta. We also help you write and implement the required policies and procedures. Most organizations are audit-ready within 8–12 weeks of engagement.
What is a security posture assessment and what does it cover?+
Our security posture assessment covers cloud configuration (CSPM), application security (SAST/SCA), identity and access management, network security, CI/CD pipeline security, and incident response readiness. You receive a prioritized findings report with risk scores and a remediation roadmap within two weeks.
Do you offer penetration testing?+
Yes. We conduct web application, API, network, and cloud configuration penetration testing following OWASP and PTES methodologies. Each engagement includes a detailed findings report with proof-of-concept evidence, CVSS scores, and remediation guidance β€” plus a retest to verify fixes.
How do you implement zero-trust security?+
Zero trust means never trust, always verify β€” for both users and services. We implement it across identity (MFA, SSO, PAM), network (ZTNA, micro-segmentation), workloads (mTLS, workload identity), and data (encryption, DLP). It's a journey, not a single product β€” we build a phased roadmap based on your current maturity and highest-risk areas.
