Security built into the architecture, not bolted on after
The most expensive security problems are the ones discovered after launch. By that point, you're not preventing a breach — you're managing one. We work with engineering teams to design threat models, harden pipelines, and implement compliance controls before a line of production code ships.
Whether you need to pass a SOC 2 audit, achieve HIPAA compliance, or simply want to know your attack surface before your adversaries do — we bring the rigour of enterprise security to teams of every size.
Security Architecture & Design
Threat modelling, attack surface analysis, and security architecture reviews for new products and existing systems. We identify risks before they become incidents.
Penetration Testing
Manual and automated penetration testing of web applications, APIs, mobile apps, and cloud infrastructure. Detailed remediation guidance, not just a report.
DevSecOps Integration
SAST, DAST, SCA, and secrets scanning embedded in your CI/CD pipelines — automated security gates that catch vulnerabilities before they reach production.
Identity & Access Management
Zero-trust IAM implementation — least-privilege access, MFA enforcement, SSO integration, privileged access management, and audit logging across your infrastructure.
Regulatory Compliance
End-to-end compliance programmes for GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS. Gap analysis, policy creation, evidence collection, and audit readiness.
Security Monitoring & SIEM
Real-time threat detection and incident response with SIEM configuration, log aggregation, anomaly alerting, and on-call escalation runbooks.
Compliance frameworks we work with
Why Ryla for Security & Compliance?
- Engineering-first approach. We treat security as an engineering problem, not a policy exercise. Controls are implemented in code, tested automatically, and enforced by architecture — not by humans following checklists.
- No vendor dependency. We're tool-agnostic. We recommend and implement the right security tooling for your stack, not the one we happen to resell.
- Deep regulated-industry experience. Our team has built security programmes for companies in healthcare, finance, and government — sectors where a breach isn't just a PR problem, it's a legal and operational crisis.
- Remediation, not just reports. We don't hand you a list of vulnerabilities and walk away. We fix them alongside your team, prioritised by actual business risk — not CVSS scores alone.
- Ongoing partnership. Security is not a one-time project. We offer retainer arrangements for continuous security testing, compliance monitoring, and incident response support.
Frequently Asked Questions
SOC 2 Type I (a point-in-time assessment) typically takes 2–4 months from gap analysis to report. SOC 2 Type II requires a minimum observation period of 6 months, so the full process usually takes 9–12 months. We help you implement controls efficiently, maintain the evidence trail throughout, and prepare you for your auditor — significantly reducing the time and stress of the process.
A vulnerability scan is automated — it uses tools to identify known weaknesses based on signatures and CVE databases. It's fast and useful for continuous monitoring but has high false-positive rates and misses business logic flaws. A penetration test is manual — a skilled engineer attempts to exploit your system the way a real attacker would, chaining vulnerabilities and discovering issues no automated tool would find. Both are valuable and serve different purposes.
Yes. We run a full GDPR programme — starting with a data mapping exercise to understand what personal data you hold and where it flows, through to implementing technical controls (encryption, access controls, retention policies), creating legally required documentation (privacy notices, DPIA templates, processing records), and building data subject rights workflows. We work alongside your legal counsel, not as a replacement for them.
We implement DevSecOps practices across your existing CI/CD pipelines. This includes static analysis (SAST) on every commit, software composition analysis (SCA) to detect vulnerable dependencies, secrets scanning to prevent credential leaks, container image scanning, and dynamic testing (DAST) against staging environments. We configure security gates that block deployments with critical findings — and tune them to minimise false positives so your developers aren't frustrated by noise.
Don't wait for an incident to take security seriously.
