Service line
DevSecOps
Security that arrives at the end of a release cycle is security that gets skipped under deadline pressure. We build it into the pipeline itself, so every deploy carries its own evidence of having been checked.
Where this fits
A separate discipline from general cloud operations
Cloud Operations keeps a platform running well. DevSecOps governs how change enters that platform in the first place, who approved it, what was scanned, and what evidence exists if an auditor or incident responder asks later. We treat the delivery pipeline itself as the security control, rather than bolting checks on after code has already shipped.
- Static and dependency scanning gated directly into CI
- Policy as code so approvals are enforced automatically, not by memory
- Audit trails generated as a byproduct of the pipeline, not a separate task
Scope of work
What this service line covers
| Capability | What it includes |
|---|---|
| Pipeline security | Static application security testing, software composition analysis, and secrets scanning wired directly into build and deploy stages. |
| Infrastructure as code security | Policy as code with tools like OPA or Sentinel, applied to Terraform and Kubernetes manifests before they reach production. |
| Identity and access management | Least privilege design, short lived credentials, and federated access across cloud accounts and CI/CD systems. |
| Container and runtime security | Image scanning, admission control, and runtime threat detection for containerized and serverless workloads. |
| Compliance automation | Continuous evidence collection mapped to frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA, reducing audit prep from weeks to days. |
| Incident readiness | Tabletop exercises, runbook development, and detection tuning so a real incident does not start with a blank page. |
Engagement models
Three ways to bring us in
Pipeline security audit
We assess your existing CI/CD pipeline against a defined security baseline and return a prioritized remediation plan.
Implementation sprint
A focused engagement to wire scanning, policy gates, and access controls into your existing pipeline without disrupting release velocity.
Ongoing security operations
Aetherion monitors and tunes your security posture continuously, including alert triage and quarterly compliance reporting.
