Security Engineering & Compliance Reinforcement

Security controls your engineering team can operate.

Makepad helps software teams add practical controls across code, running products, infrastructure risk, remediation ownership, and stakeholder reporting.

The work is designed for developers who need actionable findings and leaders who need clear evidence.

Choose by risk layer

Start with where the risk enters the delivery process.

Security work is easier to own when the layers are separated. We keep development controls, runtime checks, vulnerability ownership, and reporting distinct so the scope matches the risk.

01

Before production

Secure Development Controls

Catch insecure patterns, exposed secrets, and dependency risk before changes reach production.

02

Running product

Runtime Security Checks

Test running product surfaces and environments for risks that only appear at runtime.

03

Infrastructure risk

Vulnerability Ownership

Track vulnerable packages, images, workloads, ownership, priority, and remediation status.

04

Audit evidence

Continuous Reporting

Turn findings, fixes, ownership, risk acceptance, and retest proof into evidence stakeholders can use.

Operating model

Security controls should follow the software delivery path.

The target is not one isolated scan. It is a repeatable flow from code change to evidence, with ownership attached to every finding.

Source Code, packages, and sensitive data exposure
Pull request Security checks before release
Delivery Security gates and repeatable checks
Staging Runtime checks for product surfaces
Runtime Package, image, and workload tracking
Evidence Tickets, retests, reports, and trends

Security packages

Pick the package that matches the security layer.

Each package is scoped with the same structure: target environment, configuration work, deliverables, ownership model, and exclusions.

Secure Development Controls

Simple pitch

Detect insecure code before it reaches production.

Best when the team has active development, code changes, release workflows, and a need for secure development evidence.

Best for

  • Teams with active code changes and review workflows
  • Teams with automated delivery paths
  • Companies that want security checks before release
  • Companies preparing ISO or SOC 2 secure development evidence
  • Teams with no security scanning yet

What we configure

  • Code security tool selection
  • Code scanning setup
  • Pull request scanning
  • Delivery integration and security gates
  • Secret scanning and dependency scanning
  • Custom rules and false-positive cleanup

What your team receives

  • Working scan setup
  • Secure coding policy
  • Secure development reports
  • Developer training notes
  • Triage workflow and handover
Runtime Security Checks

Simple pitch

Test the running product safely.

Best when a product surface needs runtime security visibility and repeatable reports.

Best for

  • Teams with running product surfaces
  • Teams with a staging environment
  • Companies that need runtime security testing
  • Teams that already check code but not runtime behavior
  • Companies that need monthly or quarterly security reports

What we configure

  • Runtime security tool selection and setup
  • Authenticated and unauthenticated scans
  • Role-based scans
  • Scheduled scans
  • Production-safe scanning policy
  • Delivery integration

What your team receives

  • Runtime security reports
  • Scan schedule and safe-scan rules
  • Finding triage notes
  • Retest approach
  • Handover for engineering ownership
Vulnerability Ownership

Simple pitch

Know which systems carry vulnerable packages and who owns the fix.

Best for companies that need vulnerability visibility for production operations, audit preparation, or internal risk management.

What we track

  • Server and runtime package exposure
  • Image and workload vulnerabilities
  • Unused or inherited dependency risk
  • Registry and workload visibility
  • Software composition evidence

What we configure

  • Package vulnerability scanning
  • Image vulnerability scanning
  • Delivery-path vulnerability checks
  • Registry visibility
  • Workload risk visibility
  • Software inventory generation

What your team receives

  • Patch management workflow
  • Vulnerability triage and prioritization
  • Ticketing and ownership model
  • Monitoring notes and handover
  • Evidence for internal review or audit preparation
Security Evidence Reporting

Simple pitch

Turn security work into evidence people can trust.

Best when management, auditors, CTOs, or engineering leads need a monthly view of findings, ownership, remediation, and risk acceptance.

Security reports

  • Systems, applications, and product surfaces reviewed
  • Review dates, tools used, roles tested, and auth mode
  • Critical, high, medium, new, resolved, open, and accepted findings
  • Retest results, screenshots, and evidence

Remediation status

  • Open, in progress, fixed, verified, overdue, and reopened findings
  • Risk accepted findings and false positives
  • Ticket links and ownership records
  • Assigned owner, due date, status history, approver, and retest evidence

Remediation and risk tracking

  • Critical, high, medium, and low remediation timelines
  • Findings within target, overdue findings, exceptions, and escalations
  • Risk acceptance log with business justification and review date
  • Historical trends by severity, system, application, and recurring type

Evidence pack

Monthly reporting designed for CTOs, engineering leads, auditors, and management.

The reporting layer should make security work visible without forcing non-security stakeholders to read raw scanner output.

Monthly security evidence Example report shape
Critical 0
High 3
On target 94%
Retested 11
Executive summary Technical findings Ticket ownership Risk acceptance log Retest proof Historical trend

What the report explains

  • Overall security posture and critical risks
  • Remediation progress and month-over-month trend
  • Remediation target status and overdue findings
  • Accepted risks, compensating controls, and expiry dates
  • Security gate failures and recurring vulnerability types
  • Audit readiness status and key improvements

Boundaries

Practical security engineering, not vague assurance.

We define boundaries because it protects the client and the work. These services help teams install repeatable controls and produce evidence; they do not replace every possible security engagement.

This work is

Security controls your team can operate.

  • Tool setup and workflow integration
  • Actionable findings with ownership
  • Reports that connect technical risk to delivery risk
  • Developer handover and operating notes

This work is not

Not every security service in one package.

  • Not a penetration test unless separately scoped
  • Not legal or compliance certification
  • Not emergency incident response
  • Not a guarantee that every issue will be discovered

Tell us what needs control: development, runtime behavior, infrastructure risk, or evidence.

We will help you scope the right package instead of asking you to buy an oversized security engagement.
