Secure Application Architecture
Threat modelling and architecture review before the expensive decisions are locked in.
Overview
Most serious application security problems are architectural. Tenancy boundaries, trust assumptions between services, where authorisation is enforced and how secrets move through the system are decided early and become costly to revisit once the product is live.
We work with your team at design time, or before a significant rebuild, to model the threats that actually apply to your system, identify where the design depends on assumptions that will not hold, and agree the controls that belong in the architecture rather than in individual features.
Methodology
How the engagement runs from start to finish.
- Architecture walkthrough with your engineering team
- Data flow and trust boundary mapping
- Structured threat modelling against the proposed design
- Control selection prioritised by risk and cost of change
- Written recommendations with concrete design options
- Follow-up review once the design is updated
