Trust boundaries
Where identities, services, networks, and users are trusted—and whether those assumptions are narrow enough.
Service 04
Security Architecture
Some security problems are much cheaper to fix before deployment. Architecture review gives us a chance to examine the trust model, data flows, privilege boundaries, external dependencies, and failure modes before they become expensive production constraints.
What we look at
The parts that change the outcome.
Data & control flow
How sensitive data moves, where important decisions are made, and which components can influence security-critical behavior.
Failure modes
What happens when a service, identity, dependency, control, or expected workflow does not behave as designed.
Deliverables
What you get back.
- Architecture risk review
- Threat and trust-boundary observations
- Design-level remediation recommendations
- Prioritized issues before implementation or release
- Follow-up review after material design changes
Good fit when
This kind of engagement makes sense.
- You are designing a new product or service
- A system is about to undergo a major architectural change
- You want an adversarial review before implementation is locked in
- You need a second set of eyes on an existing security design
