Cloud-Native, API-Driven,
and Under Constant Attack.

Technology companies operate in the most dynamic, high-velocity environments in enterprise security. Multi-cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, API-first architectures, and global developer teams create an attack surface that changes hourly. Adversaries move faster than patch cycles — and cloud misconfigurations, insecure APIs, and supply chain attacks are their preferred vectors.

Active threat monitoring — TECHNOLOGY & SAAS
Threat Landscape

The adversary reality
for Technology & SaaS.

Understanding who is targeting your sector — and how — is the foundation of an effective security programme. These are the primary threat actors, campaigns, and techniques recorded against technology & saas organisations in the last 12 months.

01

Cloud misconfiguration and identity exploitation

02

Software supply chain and dependency attacks

03

API abuse, token theft, and authorisation bypass

Industry Challenges

Security pressures unique
to technology & saas.

Every security challenge in technology & saas has specific context, specific consequences, and specific adversaries. Generic security programmes don't address them.

☁️
01

Multi-Cloud Security Posture

Organisations running workloads across AWS, Azure, GCP, and SaaS platforms accumulate thousands of configuration decisions that drift from security baselines daily. Manual CSPM cannot keep pace with infrastructure-as-code deployment velocity.

Data breach via misconfiguration
🔌
02

API Security at Scale

Modern technology companies expose thousands of API endpoints, many undocumented and unmonitored. API key theft, JWT manipulation, authorisation bypass, and rate-limit abuse are the primary initial access vectors against SaaS platforms.

Customer data exposure and account takeover
🧱
03

CI/CD & Supply Chain Integrity

Build pipelines that pull from public repositories, use third-party GitHub Actions, and deploy without code signing are a systemic risk. A single compromised dependency can push malicious code to thousands of customer environments.

Downstream customer compromise
🔑
04

Secrets & Credential Management

API keys, cloud credentials, and private keys committed to source code, embedded in containers, or exposed in logs represent one of the most common and costly security failures. Automated scanning alone is insufficient.

Cloud account takeover
👨‍💻
05

Privileged Developer Access

Developers with production access, broad IAM permissions, and access to customer data present significant insider risk. The speed of DevOps culture resists the access controls and approval workflows that security requires.

Our Security Response

Purpose-built solutions
for technology & saas.

Each service is calibrated to the specific threat actors, regulatory environment, and operational constraints of your sector — not repurposed from a generic programme.

4

Frameworks
we align to.

We don't just advise on compliance — we build security programmes that satisfy regulatory requirements as a by-product of genuine security posture improvement.

SOC 2

SOC 2 Type II

The de facto standard for SaaS and cloud providers. Required by enterprise customers before procurement. Covers security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy — with annual external audit.

ISO 27001

ISO/IEC 27001:2022

Increasingly required in global enterprise contracts. Demonstrates systematic information security management. Complementary to SOC 2 for international market access.

GDPR

GDPR & CCPA

Technology companies processing EU or California resident data must comply with privacy regulations that impose strict data handling, consent, breach notification, and data subject rights requirements.

CSA STAR

CSA STAR Certification

Cloud Security Alliance STAR builds on ISO 27001 with cloud-specific controls. Required by many enterprise cloud procurement processes and demonstrates mature cloud security governance.
