03 — DevSecOps as a Service

A breach costs mid-market companies an average of EUR 4.2M. Is your security prepared?

DevSecOps as a Service: we harden your CI/CD pipeline, pull updates on workdays, and run monitoring and patches around the clock. 0 critical incidents at our clients in 2025.

From the repository, not the slide deck.

We co-built the architecture behind the German Government Site Builder (version 11) — running in production at hundreds of federal and state agencies, with a public commit history. That security and audit depth, paired with Mittelstand pace: releases in days, often multiple times a day. That is the standard we apply to your pipeline hardening.

We eat our own dog food.

We build our tools for ourselves first. Only when they survive our own everyday work do we hand them on — as open source or as a commercial product. We harden our own pipeline with the same patterns we recommend to you — SBOM, Sigstore, Vault, automated CVE gates.

What we keep finding in mid-market pipelines.

The problem

  • Secrets in the repository (CI variables, plain-text tokens, hardcoded credentials)
  • Old container bases with known CVEs, not updated for months
  • No visibility on what the pipeline actually builds — no SBOM, no provenance, no signature

The solution

  • Secret-resolver pattern: Vault or OpenBao centralised, no plain text in the CI job
  • Container hygiene as a pipeline obligation: signed builds, SBOM generation, automated CVE gates
  • Sigstore and cosign for reproducible, verifiable artefacts — also under BSI baseline contexts

Three service tiers to choose from.

DevSecOps is not a one-size-fits-all package. You choose the depth — from a one-off diagnostic to monthly engagement — we deliver it consistently.

Diagnostic Audit

Three weeks, clearly bounded scope, clearly bounded outcome: prioritised findings with immediate steps. The entry tier for anyone who doesn't yet know where they stand.

More on the audit

Pipeline hardening, ongoing

Monthly engagement: we run the pipeline hardening together with your team, keep SBOM obligations, CVE gates and signatures up to date, transfer knowledge instead of building dependence.

NIS2 compliance support

Specialised service for organisations in or adjacent to critical infrastructure: we walk you through the NIS2 requirements — risk management, incident reporting, supply-chain security.

Pricing range — DevSecOps as a Service.

Range: €1,200–€3,500/month (≈ £1,030–£3,010 / $1,300–$3,780) · minimum term 12 months

Included in the price: 24/7 security patches, weekday major upgrades, CI hardening, sub-processor audit, monitoring setup, disaster-recovery routines.

The exact price depends on platform complexity and compliance requirements (e.g. ISO 27001, BSI Grundschutz). Escalation SLA with a guaranteed response time as an add-on. As of Q2 2026.

How we introduce DevSecOps with you.

1. Audit

Three-week diagnostic. Your pipeline reviewed, documented, prioritised. You get the findings list — whether you continue with us or not.

2. Plan

Action catalogue: quick wins for the next four weeks, mid-term for a quarter, strategic decisions for a year. You choose what gets implemented.

3. Implement

Prioritised actions implemented with your team, hands-on. SBOM generation, Sigstore integration, container hygiene, secret management. In the repository, not the slide deck.

4. Operate

Continuous operation with monitoring: CVE gates active, incident workflows tested, quarterly review for the executive team. That is how it stays green.

Automated, with a hardened software supply chain.
