Security Testing

AIGard finds vulnerabilities in your applications and infrastructure before attackers do. We combine automated scanning with manual review and help your team fix what we find.

The work typically covers:

• Static and dynamic application scanning
• Dependency and container scanning
• API security testing
• Cloud configuration review
• Prioritized findings with fixes
• Retesting after remediation

Security Testing is usually the right investment in one or more of these situations:

• You're about to launch or pass an audit
• Security testing isn't part of your pipeline
• A customer requires evidence of testing
• You've had an incident and need assurance

On a 30-minute scoping call we confirm whether it fits your case and recommend a team shape and first milestones.

We recommend running automated security scans on every change, and deeper manual testing before major releases.

Automated scanning, covering application code, dependencies and containers, is built into your pipeline so that it runs as part of normal delivery. Manual review adds depth that scanning alone does not provide, and is best timed ahead of a launch or an audit.

Yes, AIGard helps fix the security issues it finds. Findings come with recommended fixes, and our engineers can implement them.

Findings are prioritized so that your team knows what to address first. Whether your engineers or ours carry out the remediation, we retest afterward to confirm that the fixes have worked.

Yes. Engineers work inside your cloud accounts under least-privilege access, following your access policies.

Access is reviewed as roles change and removed when work ends. Our practices align with ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR and HIPAA.

By agreeing security and reliability requirements up front, automating delivery, and checking each change before release.

Code reviews, dependency checks and secure credential handling are part of the development process, and changes are released in controlled steps rather than in one cutover where that is avoidable.

For Security Testing, AIGard engineers typically work with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes and AWS.

The stack is selected to fit the systems you already run, and engineers are matched to it before they join.

Security Testing is available through any of AIGard’s three engagement models: staff augmentation, where engineers join your team; a dedicated team that runs the workstream; or software outsourcing, where AIGard delivers a defined project.

The choice depends on how much of the delivery you want to manage, and it can change later under the same agreement.

Engineers typically start within two to four weeks of the scoping call. The exact date depends on the roles, seniority and number of people required.

We confirm a realistic start date in writing before you commit, and you meet the proposed engineers before work begins.

AIGard engineers typically cost 30–50% less than the fully loaded cost of a comparable US-based hire, with no recruiting fees, benefits overhead or insurance costs on your side.

The figure for a specific engagement depends on the model, the roles, the seniority mix and the size of the team. We issue a written proposal after the scoping call, so the commercial terms are agreed before any work starts.

NDAs are signed before any access is given, and engineers work inside your environment under least-privilege access, with permissions limited to their responsibilities.

Access is reviewed as roles change and removed when work ends. Our practices align with ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR and HIPAA, with PII masking, encryption and audit logging built into data work. We review your access policies, data-handling needs and vendor requirements during scoping.

You do. Intellectual property assignment is written into every contract, in every engagement model.

That covers source code, designs, documentation, data, models and prompts produced for you. Third-party components and their licenses are identified, so ownership is clear at handover.
