This project achieved compliance readiness in under 90 days—without slowing development.

Challenge

The client faced strict compliance requirements, limited visibility, and a high risk of lateral movement.

Solution

ECIS implemented a zero-trust architecture in AWS GovCloud with identity-aware access and centralized logging.

Overview

CI/CD pipelines enabled rapid deployment—but lacked embedded security controls, introducing risk into every release.

Solution

ECIS integrated security directly into development workflows:

  • Implemented SAST, DAST, and dependency scanning
  • Enforced artifact signing and validation
  • Introduced automated security gates in pipelines
  • Restricted pipeline access and permissions

Impact

  • Reduced vulnerabilities in production releases
  • Strengthened software supply chain integrity
  • Increased developer awareness of security practices

Why It Matters

Speed without security creates risk.
DevSecOps ensures both move together.

Before

  • No security testing in pipelines
  • Unverified build artifacts
  • Manual security reviews

After

  • Integrated SAST and DAST scanning
  • Signed and verified artifacts
  • Automated security gates in CI/CD
