Who we help
Risk and compliance
Compliance frameworks describe controls. Cloud native platforms implement them in configuration. We help your risk and compliance teams connect the two, along with the evidence that your regulator needs.
Talk to usThe framework names the what; the platform holds the how
DORA, NIS2, PCI DSS and the CAF each name required controls, and they all need to be evidenced on platforms built from Kubernetes, pipelines and open source. The security findings live in the gaps between the control statement and the cluster configuration.
The gap is now widening into the supply chain. Provenance, licence exposure and EU Cyber Resilience Act obligations sit with risk teams whose frameworks were written for traditional software, not for ten thousand open source dependencies.
We have helped bridge this gap many times, including for banks, government organisations and cloud vendors.
What risk and compliance teams bring us
Control frameworks that must be mapped to cloud native reality before the next assessment
Audit findings against the platform that engineering and compliance read differently
Supply chain obligations, from licence exposure to Cyber Resilience Act readiness, with no established process behind them
Applications and licences (banking, payments) that require security evidence to a standard the team has not produced before
Assurance reports from vendors that assert more than they demonstrate
How we help
Where risk and compliance teams engage us.
Senior practitioners who speak both languages fluently. We help you connect what the regulator's control language means in cluster configuration, and what the platform's actual state means for a submission.
Readiness for the EU Cyber Resilience Act and governed open source consumption: obligations mapped, evidence produced, process left behind.
Third-party assessment of the platform's controls, producing evidence written for both the auditor and the engineers who must act on it.
Threat models that double as compliance artefacts. See Questrade's GKE threat modelling supporting a successful banking licence application as an example.
Courses that teach risk teams to read and challenge cloud native threat models on their own terms.
