Application Security (AppSec)

Secure the Code, APIs, and Supply Chain Inside Your DevSecOps Pipeline

AppSec is highly searched because shipping faster made the software factory the new perimeter. Saral Cyber Team embeds scanning, reviews, and API security in the pipeline your developers already use.

What Saral Cyber Team Delivers

Integrated outcomes — monitoring, response, and proof — not a pile of disconnected tools.

Secure SDLC & Reviews

Threat model on new features, PR review for authz, and a lightweight architecture clinic — not a 40-page STRIDE novel on every ticket.

SAST / DAST That Developers Use

Tools in CI with baselines, not 8,000 blockers on day one. We tune until the signal is worth a red build.

API Security

Schema, authz, rate limits, and abuse cases in staging. Gateways and code, together.

SCA, SBOM & Supply Chain

Vulnerable deps, malicious packages, and a SBOM you can hand to enterprise customers.

Secrets & CI Hardening

Pre-commit and pipeline secret scanning, OIDC to cloud, and no long-lived keys in GitHub.

Developer Enablement

Office hours, secure snippets, and a champion network so AppSec is not a bottleneck team of one.

Case Studies & Outcomes

What changed when teams stopped buying isolated products and started buying a cyber program.

Case Study

Fintech: CI Gate Without Muting the Channel

Problem: A previous SAST tool posted 2,000 findings. Developers ignored the Slack channel. A SQL injection still shipped.

Solution: Baseline, block only on new high issues in changed code, plus an API DAST on the payment service in staging.

Result: Mean time to fix highs: 4 days. Slack channel unmuted. Injection class gone in two sprints.

Case Study

SaaS: Malicious Dependency Caught in PR

Problem: A typosquat package nearly merged via a dependabot-like PR on a weekend.

Solution: SCA policy, package allow/deny, and maintainer-health checks on new deps.

Result: PR blocked. Supply-chain section added to customer security pack. SBOM generated per release.

How We Engage

A repeatable path from coverage map to measurable risk reduction.

1

App Inventory

Services, repos, languages, and who can ship to prod. Shadow apps included.

2

Pipeline Instrumentation

The smallest set of scanners that cover languages you actually write.

3

Threat Model the Money Paths

Auth, payments, exports, admin. That is where AppSec time goes first.

4

Coach & Gate

Champions, SLAs for highs, and gates that fail the build only when we have earned the right.

Why Saral Cyber Team

Enterprise-grade security, built for the mid-market teams who actually have to run it.

We Sit With Engineering

Office hours in their timezone and stack. Security that only speaks GRC gets muted.

Signal Over Volume

A scanner with 0% fix rate is a liability. We measure fix rate, not finding count.

Supply Chain Is In Scope

Dependencies, CI, and build integrity — not just your application code.

Matches How You Ship

GitHub, GitLab, Jenkins, Azure DevOps. We do not invent a second SDLC.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will you force a specific SAST vendor? + No. We implement on GitHub Advanced Security, Semgrep, Checkmarx, Sonar, or what you already license — then tune. Tool choice is secondary to fix rate.
How do you avoid slowing releases? + Scan changed code, baseline legacy, and only gate new highs/criticals until the team is green. Threat models are on high-risk features, not every story.
Do pentests replace AppSec? + No. VAPT is a periodic proof. AppSec is how you stop shipping the same bug class every sprint. We recommend both.
Can you handle microservices and a monolith? + Yes. Inventory first. API security and identity between services is usually the gap in microservice estates.
What is an SBOM and do buyers really ask? + A Software Bill of Materials lists what you shipped. Enterprise and cyber-insurance questionnaires increasingly require it. We generate it in CI, not in a spreadsheet before the audit.
