Problem

SoftSeq LLC

Before the first production rollout, a startup fintech solution provider wanted to make sure their system was sufficiently protected against targeted hacking attempts.

SoftSeq was contracted to review the architecture, code, and infrastructure of the system handling highly sensitive investment portfolio management services.

Solution

security@softseq.com

1712 Pioneer Ave. Ste. 500, Cheyenne, WY 82001 U.S.A +1-307-3165-777

Due to financial constraints of an early stage startup, SoftSeq’s engagement was limited to OWASP Top 10 security issue classes.

Result

SoftSeq experts performed a thorough risk assessment in order to prioritize security audit activities for maximum efficiency and coverage.
