What We Build
TAK Devs runs software security consulting engagements across nine core disciplines, from strategy through incident response readiness, scoped as a fixed-price project instead of rented headcount. IBM’s 2025 Cost of a Data Breach Report puts the global average cost of a breach at $4.44 million, and most of that cost comes from what happens after the breach, which is exactly what this is built to prevent.
Strategy Before Spend
Risk mapped to your business, not a generic checklist
Most security budgets get spent on the wrong things first. We map your actual risk before recommending a single control.
- Risk assessments aligned to NIST CSF and ISO 27001, scoped to your real attack surface
- Prioritized roadmaps that fix the highest-impact gaps first, not the easiest ones
- Vendor and third-party risk reviews. Verizon’s 2025 Data Breach Investigations Report found third-party involvement in breaches doubled to 30% in a single year
- Security budget planning tied to business risk, not fear
- Cyber maturity assessments benchmarked against your industry
Code That Resists Attack
Application security consulting for teams shipping fast
Fast shipping and secure shipping are not opposites. We review code, architecture, and dependencies before attackers do.
- Secure code review and threat modeling mapped to the OWASP Top 10
- Static and dynamic analysis integrated into your existing workflow
- Dependency and supply-chain vulnerability scanning
- DevSecOps advisory for teams who want security without slowing releases
- Remediation guidance your developers can actually implement, not a 40-page PDF
Cloud Locked Down Right
Cloud security consulting across AWS, Azure, and GCP
Cloud misconfigurations cause more breaches than zero-day exploits. We find them before they become an incident report.
- Cloud security posture assessments across AWS, Azure, and GCP
- Zero-trust architecture design for hybrid and multi-cloud environments
- IAM policy review to close over-permissioned access
- Cloud cost and security review in one pass, typically identifying 20-35% in cloud cost reduction
- Container and Kubernetes security hardening
Compliance Without Panic
HIPAA, SOC 2, GDPR, and PCI-DSS readiness done right
Compliance audits fail when security is an afterthought. We build the controls in from day one, so the audit becomes a formality.
- HIPAA, GDPR, SOC 2, and PCI-DSS readiness assessments and gap remediation
- Audit-ready documentation your compliance team will not have to rewrite
- Data privacy program support, including consent management and data flow mapping
- Policy and control frameworks mapped to ISO 27001
- 100% HIPAA compliance achieved day-one on TAK Devs’ UpliftCare build
Security In Every Sprint
DevSecOps consulting that builds security into your pipeline
Bolting security onto a finished pipeline is expensive and slow. We build it into CI/CD starting with the first sprint.
- Automated security gates in your CI/CD pipeline
- Secrets management and infrastructure-as-code scanning
- Shift-left security so vulnerabilities get caught before merge, not after a breach
- Container image scanning and hardened base images
- Bi-weekly sprint cadence with security demos, same as every other TAK Devs build
Access That Makes Sense
Identity and access management consulting for hybrid teams
Most breaches start with credentials, not exploits. We design identity systems that limit the blast radius.
- Least-privilege access design across cloud and on-prem systems
- SSO, MFA, and OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect implementation
- Identity lifecycle management for hybrid and remote teams
- Privileged access review to close escalation paths
- Role-based access control mapped to actual job functions, not job titles
Find the Holes First
Vulnerability management and penetration testing before attackers test you
We would rather be the ones who find your vulnerabilities. It makes for a much better conversation than the alternative.
- Penetration testing across web, mobile, API, and network layers
- Vulnerability scanning with risk-based prioritization, not a raw CVE dump
- Red-team style testing for organizations that want to know their real exposure
- Retesting included, so fixes get verified instead of assumed
- Findings delivered in plain language your board can actually read
Data Locked, Not Lost
Encryption and data protection consulting for sensitive systems
Data protection is not just encryption. It is knowing where sensitive data lives and who can touch it.
- Encryption strategy using AES-256 and TLS 1.3 standards for data at rest and in transit
- Data loss prevention (DLP) tooling and access controls
- Data classification and mapping across your systems
- Key management and rotation policy design
- Backup and recovery testing, not just backup configuration
Ready Before It Happens
Incident response readiness so a breach never becomes a crisis
Most companies write their incident response plan during the incident. We help you write it before.
- Incident response plan development and tabletop exercises
- Breach detection and escalation workflow design
- Post-incident review processes that actually change the next sprint
- Communication and disclosure playbooks mapped to regulatory requirements
- 24/7 escalation paths defined before you need them, not during

What Working With TAK Devs Actually Looks Like
In early 2025, UpliftCare came to us with a clear challenge and a tight window. They needed a complete, HIPAA-compliant telehealth marketplace connecting patients, verified therapists, and healthcare institutions. The deadline was three months, set by an investor presentation they could not move.
There was no technical architecture. No defined roadmap. Just a vision and a date.
TAK Devs took on the full product lifecycle.
In six sprints and twelve weeks, we delivered:
Four connected portals covering Patient, Therapist, Admin, and Institutional workflows
Real-time video consultations via WebRTC, integrated Stripe payments, and smart scheduling
100% HIPAA-aligned architecture with full encryption across all data flows
Automated credential verification that reduced therapist onboarding time by 70%
CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and AWS-based deployment ready for production from day one

Frequently Asked Questions
What is software security consulting, and does my business actually need it?
Software security consulting is the practice of assessing, designing, and hardening an application’s architecture, code, and infrastructure against real-world threats before they become breaches. Most businesses need it when they handle sensitive data, are preparing for a compliance audit, are scaling fast, or are shipping code faster than their security review can keep up.
- You collect or process customer, health, or payment data
- You are pursuing HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI-DSS, or GDPR compliance
- You are scaling and security review has become the bottleneck
How do I know if TAK Devs can secure my specific tech stack?
TAK Devs works across AWS, Azure, and GCP, and our consultants review your actual architecture during the scoping workshop before quoting a fixed price. If there is a gap between your stack and our expertise, we say so upfront rather than take the engagement anyway.
What happens if we start and realize it's not the right fit?
If there’s no fit, we’ll point you to who is better suited rather than force an engagement that will not work. The scoping workshop happens before any commitment is made, specifically to catch fit problems early instead of three sprints into a project neither side should have started.
How long before we see results from a security engagement?
Most TAK Devs engagements move from discovery call to delivery in about 12 weeks on average, though a focused audit or penetration test can turn around findings in as little as two to three weeks. The scoping workshop sets a realistic timeline before any work starts.
What's the difference between a one-time security audit and ongoing security consulting?
A security audit is a point-in-time assessment that surfaces existing vulnerabilities and compliance gaps, while ongoing security consulting embeds security review into every development sprint so new vulnerabilities get caught before they ship. Most clients start with an audit, then move to ongoing support once the initial gaps are closed.
Do you sign NDAs and data protection agreements before reviewing our systems?
Yes, TAK Devs signs NDAs and data protection agreements as standard practice before any code, architecture, or system access is reviewed. This is non-negotiable given the sensitivity of security engagements, and we will provide our standard agreement or review yours during scoping.
What does pricing look like for software security consulting?
Most TAK Devs security engagements run on a fixed-price model scoped during the discovery call and scoping workshop, so there are no surprise invoices mid-engagement. Pricing depends on the size of your codebase, infrastructure, and compliance requirements, and you get a defined number before any work starts.
Who owns the code, findings, and IP after the engagement ends?
You own the code, findings, and any documentation TAK Devs produces during the engagement, in full, once final delivery is complete and invoices are settled. This is standard across every TAK Devs engagement, not a premium add-on or a point that needs negotiating.
Can TAK Devs help us get HIPAA, SOC 2, or GDPR compliant?
Yes, compliance readiness is one of TAK Devs’ core software security consulting services, covering HIPAA, SOC 2, GDPR, and PCI-DSS gap assessment, control design, and audit-ready documentation. TAK Devs achieved 100% HIPAA compliance day-one on the UpliftCare telehealth marketplace build, using the same approach behind every compliance engagement.
What happens after launch, does TAK Devs just disappear?
No, every TAK Devs engagement includes an ongoing support option with SLA-backed monitoring, patching, and incident response readiness after launch. Security is not a one-time deliverable, and we stay involved for as long as the engagement calls for it.
