Ground Truth
The Product Security Assessment
Most software companies can ship quickly. Far fewer can answer a simple question with confidence: is what we ship secure, and does it stay secure every time it changes? If your team does not have a dedicated security function, that answer is usually a guess. Ground Truth replaces the guess with a clear, evidence-based picture of your product security, and a prioritized plan to improve it.
Without a security team, you have no reliable way to know how exposed you are
You feel it when an enterprise customer sends a security questionnaire your team cannot fully answer. When a prospect asks whether you are SOC 2 or ISO 27001 ready and the room goes quiet. When you ship AI features and are not certain what new risk came with them. Without a security team, you have no reliable way to know how exposed you are, or where to start. Ground Truth gives you that clarity in two weeks.
A two-week assessment, written for leadership to act on
A structured, two-week assessment of your product's security across its entire lifecycle, measured against internationally recognized security standards and translated into a roadmap your team can act on. Built for software companies without an in-house security function, and written for leadership, not only engineers.
The eight areas of a working program
-
Security architecture and design
-
Threat modeling
-
Application security
-
Secure development and delivery
-
Software supply chain
-
Vulnerability management and response
-
Security culture and ownership
-
Security governance and metrics
Plus the security of your AI and LLM components, against emerging best practice.
A clear baseline and a plan you can act on
A clear maturity baseline
Across all eight areas, in plain language.
A prioritized roadmap
That sequences the highest-impact improvements first.
An executive-ready report
For your board, your customers, or your auditors.
A working session
To walk your team through the findings and the plan.
Why now
Enterprise buyers demand security assurance before they sign. SOC 2, ISO 27001, and POPIA are becoming entry requirements, and the EU AI Act introduces obligations for AI features with deadlines already in motion. A clear baseline today is the difference between leading these conversations and scrambling through them.
