What is SDLC gap analysis?

SDLC gap analysis is a comprehensive assessment of your software development process to identify missing security controls and compliance requirements.

Why is SDLC security important?

Embedding security in the development lifecycle (shift-left approach) reduces vulnerabilities in production, lowers remediation costs, and ensures compliance with security standards.

DevSecOps integrates security practices throughout the development and operations process, automating security controls and enabling continuous vulnerability management.

Build Security In, Not On

Bridging the gap between rapid development and robust security. Our SDLC Gap Analysis ensures security is a core foundation of your software lifecycle.

Shift Left Culture

Integrated DevSecOps

Strategic Security

Stop Patching, Start Protecting

Traditional security often waits until after software is built to start testing. This "bolted-on" approach leads to costly delays and vulnerabilities.

A Secure SDLC Gap Analysis identifies where security measures are lacking within each phase of your lifecycle.

Benefits of Alignment

Cost-Effective Security

Fixing vulnerabilities during design is 6x cheaper than during production.

Enhanced Compliance

Easily meet requirements for HIPAA, SOC 2, and more by default.

Empowered Developers

Security becomes a feature of the code, not an obstacle to deployment.

Higher Software Quality

Building robust applications that are secure-by-design and resilient.

The Shift-Left Strategy

"Security isn't a final checkmark, but a continuous thread that runs through every line of code your team writes."

Our Audit Methodology

A structured evaluation that compares your current state against industry-leading security frameworks.

Discovery & Scope

Gathering documentation from DevOps, testers, and PMs to define the current boundaries of your development lifecycle.

Threat Modeling

Identifying and analyzing potential threats to the application at every stage, from concept to deployment.

Security Tooling Audit

Evaluating existing SAST, DAST, and SCA tools to identify blind spots in automated vulnerability detection.

Alignment & Roadmap

Comparing current practices against NIST SSDF or OWASP CLASP to provide a clear remediation plan.

SDLC Audit Clarified

QWhy perform a gap analysis instead of just a pen-test?

A pen-test finds bugs in the product; a gap analysis finds bugs in the process. By fixing the process, you prevent future bugs from ever reaching the pen-testing phase.

QHow long does a typical SDLC audit take?

Depending on the complexity of your stack and the size of your development team, an audit usually ranges from 2 to 4 weeks of detailed evaluation.

QWhat frameworks do you audit against?

We primarily use the NIST Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF), OWASP CLASP, and BSIMM, tailored to your specific industry requirements.
