Exposure validation & AppSec

Use VajraX for external exposure, VectorX from repo to release and specialist testing to verify remediation.

OVERVIEW

Exposure validation and application security assurance

Use two distinct assessment lanes: authorised external assets for exposure validation, and scoped repositories and dependencies for code and supply-chain analysis. VajraX and VectorX support those lanes; specialist testing turns findings into prioritised remediation and retest evidence.

This service covers web applications, APIs, repositories and software supply chains. AI security & GRC covers AI and LLM risk testing and controls. Connect security findings with Quality engineering when release quality and security gates need one assurance scope.

WHAT WE DELIVER

Products and specialist services, clearly separated

Agree assets, repositories, test limits and supported checks before work. Product access does not automatically include specialist assessment or remediation.

SPECIALIST SERVICE

Release assurance & retesting

Connect findings with risk owners and release decisions, then check approved changes.

  • Risk/owner/gate decisions
  • Remediation verification and retest record
DELIVERY APPROACH

From discovery to verified closure

Example engagement pattern: external assets feed the VajraX assessment lane; repositories and dependencies feed the VectorX lane. Specialist review brings findings together to prioritise remediation and agree retest criteria.

01

Authorise agreed scope

Agree asset and repository coverage, test limits, safe testing rules and exclusions.

  • Signed rules of engagement
  • Authorised asset/repository scope
02

Validate findings

Review exposure and code findings in context; distinguish scan results from authorised validation.

  • Finding evidence and validation status
  • False-positive handling and limitations
03

Approve remediation

Agree severity, accountable owners and release-gate decisions before changes.

  • Risk-ranked owner/action plan
  • Approved change and acceptance criteria
04

Retest for closure

Check the approved change against the original finding and record any residual risk.

  • Dated retest and closure evidence
  • Residual exceptions and release decision
ASSURANCE ROUTES

Connect security to delivery assurance

Choose the reusable delivery IP that fits your release or regulatory requirements, connecting assessment findings with agreed gates and evidence.

DELIVERY ACCELERATOR

Cyber-Safe Delivery

Connect security checks and remediation evidence with engineering and release acceptance.

  • Agreed quality and security gates
  • Finding ownership and retest criteria
DELIVERY ACCELERATOR

Regulatory Readiness & Control Mapping

Map agreed control requirements to exposure findings, owners and remediation evidence.

  • Requirement-control-finding links
  • Evidence and review responsibilities
Related value play

AI Code Assurance combines quality and security gates across CI/CD for AI-written change. Regulated Cyber Readiness connects exposure validation, control mapping and remediation evidence.

SECURE BY DESIGN

Authorised testing and reviewable release evidence

Do not assume every finding is exploitable or every language, pipeline or integration is supported. Agree coverage and validation depth at the start.

Method and testing limits

Confirm applicable OWASP web/API or ASVS checks, supply-chain and SBOM scope before assessment.

  • Safe test rules and exclusions
  • Agreed severity and validation method

Source and finding safeguards

Agree repository access, handling of source code and vulnerability evidence, secure transfer and retention.

  • Authorised access and processing locations
  • Personal-data handling and legal scope

Finding-to-retest record

Record test date, scope, finding evidence, validation status, owner, approved fix and retest result.

  • Traceable acceptance and release decision
  • Residual risk and remediation exclusions
BUYER QUESTIONS

Choose an assessment or product walkthrough

Before your next release, discuss an assessment, product walkthrough or ongoing validation. Do not include credentials, source code or vulnerability details in an enquiry.
