Security & Architecture
Secure platforms are built through architecture, not through after-the-fact hardening. We anchor Security-by-Design from the role model and network segmentation through to the operating process. Learn more
Is your platform architecture prepared for current audit requirements and Zero-Trust?
Retro-fitted security measures are expensive and prone to error. We establish Zero-Trust architectures that make compliance measurable and security intrinsic ("by design").
How you notice this in daily operations
- Insufficient network segmentation and isolation
- Inconsistent RBAC and policy models
- Unclear multi-tenancy
- Missing alignment between security and operations
- Compliance requirements without a reliable operating model
- Security knowledge heavily person-dependent
What we deliver
Zero-trust design & multi-tenancy
Structured isolation of workloads and teams – policy enforcement with OPA/Gatekeeper.
Network segmentation (e.g. Cilium)
Architecture concept for controlled communication and observability – complemented by Falco for runtime threat detection.
Role and governance model
Clear responsibilities and traceable decision paths – secrets management typically with Vault.
Security integration in GitOps & CI/CD
Policies and standards as part of the delivery process – with Trivy for image scanning and cert-manager for TLS.
Decision basis for regulatory requirements
Structured assessment instead of reactive individual measures.
Frequently asked questions
What does Security-by-Design mean in practice?
Security-by-Design means that security requirements are integrated into architecture and processes from the start – not as an after-the-fact layer. This covers RBAC models, network segmentation, policy frameworks, and secrets management as part of the platform blueprint. Retro-fitted hardening is more expensive and more fragmented than built-in security. We anchor security in the delivery processes so that every deployment automatically meets the defined standards.
How do you handle the revised Swiss Data Protection Act (nDSG)?
The nDSG sets concrete requirements for data storage, processing, and traceability. At the platform level this means: clear data residency concepts, audit trails, and isolation mechanisms for personal data. We translate regulatory requirements into technical measures – for example namespace isolation, policy enforcement with OPA/Gatekeeper, and structured secrets rotation. We do not replace legal counsel; we provide the technical implementation foundation.
How do you integrate security into existing GitOps pipelines?
Security is anchored as part of the delivery process – not as a separate gate at the end. This means: image scanning with Trivy in the CI/CD pipeline, policy checks as part of GitOps deployments, and automated certificate management with cert-manager. Falco provides runtime threat detection in live operations. This approach prevents security requirements from being bypassed because they sit too late in the process.
Outcome
A clearly structured platform architecture with reduced attack surface, a consistent role model, and a reliable security concept – integrated into operations and delivery.
All concepts are documented and designed so that teams can operate them sustainably.
