Cloud Cost & Security Audit
We audit your AWS, GCP, or Azure environment, finding the ghost costs draining your runway and the security gaps hiding underneath. Most teams find both within the first week.
The Problem
You're paying for infrastructure you don't fully understand. Orphaned resources, overprivileged IAM roles, untagged spend, it adds up. And underneath the billing mess, there's usually a security problem waiting to be found by someone less friendly than us.
Who This Is For
Startups at 10-50 engineers with growing AWS/GCP/Azure bills and no dedicated security person. Teams preparing for SOC 2, Series A due diligence, or a first enterprise customer who sent a security questionnaire.

- You need someone to manage your cloud day-to-day
- You want a penetration test only (that's a different engagement)

Pipeline Security
Your pipeline is deploying secrets to production and you probably don't know it. We audit and harden your CI/CD, catching vulnerabilities before they ship, not after.
Incident Readiness
When production breaks, does your team have a playbook, or does everyone just Slack the one person who knows the system? We build the runbooks, alerts, and processes so the next incident doesn't become a war story.
RBI Fintech Compliance
RBI Master Direction technical compliance for payment aggregators, NBFCs, and digital lending platforms headquartered in Bangalore. Data localization, encryption, MFA, 6-hour incident reporting, VAPT readiness, and CERT-In empanelled audit prep — built into your AWS / GCP / Azure infrastructure, not into a binder nobody reads.
DPDP Compliance
Get your startup ready for the Digital Personal Data Protection Act before May 2027 enforcement. Data inventory, consent management, 72-hour breach notification pipeline, DPO scope, child-data special handling — built into your codebase, not into a privacy policy nobody reads. Penalty exposure up to ₹250 crore.
AWS Baseline (India)
The 12 AWS security controls every Indian seed startup should turn on this afternoon — region-locked to ap-south-1, DPDP-aware, RBI-overlay-ready. Same opinionated baseline we open-sourced as aws-startup-security-baseline. Built for ₹40k-month retainers, not enterprise CAPEX.
K8s Audit (India)
Production Kubernetes cluster audit + hardening for Indian startups: RBAC review, network policies, admission controllers, supply-chain security, pod-security standards. Built for 3-15 node EKS / GKE / AKS clusters running real workloads, not enterprise mesh complexity.
SOC 2 (India)
SOC 2 Type I + Type II readiness for Indian seed startups, priced in rupees. We get you to attestation for ₹15-30L all-in instead of the ₹35L+ Western default. India-empanelled auditor partnerships, Vanta / Drata / Sprinto / Scrut integration, and a build cadence calibrated to Indian engineering economics.
