The challenge
Where teams get stuck
The problems we're most often brought in to solve.
- 01
Access controls have never been reviewed
Roles, permissions and administrative access have not been examined since the platform was first built.
- 02
Auditors need evidence you lack
A compliance auditor is requesting proof of technical security review that the organisation cannot yet provide.
- 03
Codebase risk is unknown
The platform has grown quickly, and nobody knows whether common vulnerability classes have been introduced.
Overview
Security Assessment & Compliance at VulcanTech
A security audit is a structured review of an organisation's code, cloud configuration and access controls against recognised security and compliance frameworks. VulcanTech assesses against OWASP guidance and the framework you are working towards, whether SOC 2, HIPAA or ISO 27001. The output is a prioritised findings report with clear remediation guidance and control mapping, giving engineering a practical plan and giving auditors the evidence they request.
Key deliverables
- Secure code review covering major vulnerability classes

Our process
How we deliver
A delivery process you can see into — from first workshop to production support.
- 01
Discovery
A focused working session on your objectives, constraints and existing systems. It concludes with a scoped proposal and a clear view of value, risk and effort.
- 02
Architecture & planning
We agree the target architecture, data model and integration approach before product code is written, and secure your sign-off.
- 03
Iterative delivery
Working software reaches a staging environment on a regular cadence, giving stakeholders continuous visibility and the ability to steer priorities.
- 04
Assurance & hardening
Automated testing, accessibility and performance budgets, and a security review are completed before anything reaches production.
- 05
Launch & continuity
We manage cutover and remain engaged through an agreed support period, with a structured handover to your teams or ongoing operation by ours.
Engagement models
Work with us the way that suits you
Outcome-based delivery
A defined scope, timeline and commercial model agreed after discovery. We own delivery risk against the agreed outcomes.
Best for: Well-defined initiatives, MVPs and first releases
Dedicated product teams
A cross-functional pod — engineering, design, QA and delivery leadership — aligned to your roadmap and scaled as priorities change.
Best for: Long-term product development and evolving roadmaps
Team extension
Senior engineers embed in your organisation, work inside your processes and report to your leaders — on contracts that assign all IP to you.
Best for: Adding specialist capability without growing headcount
