RELATED TERMS06
  • Threat model

    A structured exercise that walks the system's actors, attack surface, risks, and controls. Day one of every DField project · before any code.

  • Penetration test (pentest)

    Manual + tooled attack simulation that reveals what an attacker could achieve. We deliver findings as PRs in your repo, not an 80-page PDF.

  • DevSecOps

    Security as a continuously-running CI step (SAST, DAST, SCA, IaC scan), not an annual project. Runs against every push; every sprint closes at least one security bug.

  • MFA (Multi-factor auth)

    Two or more factors (TOTP, WebAuthn, biometric) beyond a password. Table-stakes in SaaS today · enterprise procurement disqualifies you without it.

  • SOC 2

    A US audit framework for confidentiality, integrity, availability, and privacy controls. For SaaS, the Type II audit (6–12 months of observation) is the standard enterprise baseline.

  • ISO 27001

    International standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). Often preferred in Europe instead of or alongside SOC 2. 3-year certification cycle.
