Platform Engineering
Secure Foundations for Resilient Software.
The security of your software applications is intrinsically linked to the security of the underlying platforms they run on. In modern, dynamic environments involving cloud infrastructure, containers, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC), designing, building, and maintaining a secure foundation requires specialized knowledge. A weak platform can undermine even the most securely written code.
CShift provides expertise in Platform Engineering to help you establish and maintain the secure foundations necessary for building and deploying secure software at scale. We offer our knowledge and support to assist your teams in designing, implementing, and managing your technology platforms – whether in the cloud, on-premise, or hybrid – with security built-in. This includes lending our expertise to establish secure baseline configurations, integrating automated security controls within infrastructure workflows, and advising on creating platforms that facilitate secure development, deployment, and operations.
