Secure Development

Security-First
ASP.NET Core Development

We build and harden ASP.NET Core applications with security baked in from day one — following OWASP Top 10, integrating Keycloak IAM, and applying secure SDLC practices throughout every development phase.

Why It Matters

Security Is Not an Afterthought

Most security vulnerabilities are introduced during development — injection flaws, broken authentication, unvalidated input, and insecure dependencies. Retrofitting security after deployment is expensive and incomplete.

We integrate security at every phase of the development lifecycle, from threat modeling before the first line of code to security-gated CI/CD pipelines and hardened production configurations.

  • OWASP Top 10 mitigations built into every feature
  • Secure defaults: HTTPS-only, strong CSP, no sensitive data in logs
  • Dependency scanning and SCA in CI/CD pipelines
  • Secrets management via Azure Key Vault — no hardcoded credentials
Threat Modeling
STRIDE-based threat analysis before implementation — identify and address risks at design time, not after deployment.
Secure Code Reviews
Automated (SAST/DAST) and manual code reviews focused on OWASP violations, logic flaws, and cryptographic weaknesses.
Keycloak IAM Integration
OAuth 2.0 / OIDC, SSO, MFA, and RBAC — seamlessly integrated into ASP.NET Core Razor Pages and Web API projects.
Hardened CI/CD
Security gates in your pipeline — dependency scanning, container image scanning, SAST checks, and policy enforcement before every release.
Our Process

Secure SDLC Approach

Security integrated at every phase — from initial design to production monitoring.

01
Threat Modeling & Planning
STRIDE analysis, attack surface mapping, and security requirements defined before implementation begins.
02
Secure Coding
OWASP-aligned development with input validation, secure session management, and no sensitive data exposure.
03
Code Review & SAST
Manual and automated code reviews — static analysis (SAST), dependency checks, and OWASP violation detection.
04
CI/CD Security Gates
Pipeline enforcement — SCA, container scanning, policy-as-code, and security test suites block vulnerable releases.
05
Monitoring & Response
Structured logging, anomaly detection, Azure Sentinel integration, and incident response runbooks for production.
Technology

Our Security Tech Stack

ASP.NET Core 8
Razor Pages, Web API, and Minimal APIs with HTTPS enforcement, built-in CSRF protection, data protection APIs, and secure cookie policies.
Keycloak & OAuth 2.0
Enterprise IAM with Keycloak as identity provider — OAuth 2.0 / OIDC middleware, JWT validation, RBAC policies, SSO, and MFA across all services.
Azure Security Suite
Azure Key Vault for secrets management, Azure AD B2C, Defender for Cloud, Application Gateway with WAF, and Sentinel for SIEM.
SAST & DAST Tools
SonarQube / Semgrep for static analysis, OWASP ZAP for dynamic testing, Trivy for container scanning, and OWASP Dependency-Check for SCA.
Secure Data Layer
Entity Framework Core with parameterized queries, data encryption at rest, sensitive field protection, and GDPR-aligned data handling.
DevSecOps & CI/CD
GitHub Actions / Azure DevOps pipelines with automated security gates — SCA, SAST, image scanning, and policy-as-code enforcement on every commit.

Compliance

Standards & Compliance Alignment

Our development practices are aligned with industry standards and regulatory requirements. We help ensure that your software meets GDPR, NIS2, and ISO 27001-relevant requirements.

  • OWASP ASVS — Application Security Verification Standard compliance at level 2/3
  • GDPR — data minimization, encryption at rest/transit, right-to-erasure support
  • NIS2 — security incident handling, access management, and supply chain security
  • ISO 27001 — access control, vulnerability management, and audit logging aligned
  • CIS Benchmarks — server and container hardening following CIS Level 1/2 guidelines
