DevSecOps Consulting

DevSecOps problems are not tool problems. They are decision problems. I help teams make the right decisions — before they get expensive.

What I do

Security by design

Pipelines & supply chain

Hardening CI/CD pipelines — your pipeline is the biggest attack surface in your company. Plus supply chain security from dependencies to signatures and SBOMs.

Cloud-native

Container & Kubernetes

Security architecture for the entire development and operations cycle: container hardening, Kubernetes security, secure build and deploy processes.

Second opinion

Audits & incident follow-up

Security audits of build and deploy processes and incident follow-up — including the uncomfortable questions afterwards. Also available as an external second opinion on existing concepts.

How I work

1Understand first

I look at how your team actually works — before changing anything. DevSecOps problems are decision problems, not tool problems.

2Then prioritise

No 80-page reports nobody reads. You get concrete, prioritised steps — developed with the team rather than over its head.

3Implement together

What I recommend, I have built and operated myself. Implementation happens with your team — so the knowledge stays in-house.

Booking

Security as a craft,
not compliance theatre.

For development teams and mid-sized companies that want to make the right decisions before they get expensive. A short message is enough — I will get back to you personally.
