Enterprise Cybersecurity & Zero Trust Consulting
Zero trust architecture, cloud security posture management, secure SDLC and AI governance — security built for AI-era threats and regulated industry operations.
Talk to AX3What the Cybersecurity practice covers
Zero trust architecture and governance built for AI-era threats.
| Capability | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Zero trust & identity security | Continuous, risk-based access control across users and devices |
| Cloud security posture (CSPM/CNAPP) | Real-time misconfiguration detection across cloud environments |
| DevSecOps & secure SDLC | Security embedded from commit through production deployment |
| AI governance & GRC | Unified governance, risk and compliance for AI and data systems |
| Threat detection & SOC automation | AI-driven detection that cuts mean time to detect and respond |

How an AX3 Cybersecurity program runs
Each phase has a fixed duration, a defined input and a named artifact at the end, so progress is visible to your architecture, security and finance functions rather than only to the delivery team.
Assess
Identity, cloud posture, pipeline and data-flow review against a named control framework, producing a risk-ranked findings register with remediation effort attached.
Architect
Zero trust target architecture: identity model, segmentation, guardrails, logging strategy, detection coverage map and the governance operating model.
Remediate
Wave-based remediation starting with the highest-exposure findings, with controls implemented as code so they hold across future environments.
Operate
Detection tuning, SOC automation, purple-team validation, compliance evidence collection and periodic posture review.
What AX3 Cybersecurity teams actually work with
AX3 works inside the stack you already own wherever it is fit for purpose, and recommends a change only where the current tooling is the constraint.
| Layer | Tools and platforms |
|---|---|
| Identity & access | Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, privileged access management, conditional access and continuous risk-based authentication policies |
| Cloud security posture | CSPM and CNAPP tooling across AWS, Azure and GCP, CIS benchmark enforcement, IAM least-privilege analysis, network segmentation and micro-perimeters |
| Pipeline security | SAST, DAST and SCA scanning, secrets detection, container and image scanning, OPA and policy-as-code gates, signed artifacts and SBOM generation |
| Detection & response | SIEM and SOAR platforms, EDR/XDR telemetry, detection-as-code rulesets, automated triage playbooks and incident runbooks |
| Governance & AI risk | Control mapping to ISO 27001, SOC 2 and NIST CSF, AI model inventory, prompt and data-leakage controls, audit evidence automation |
What you receive
Every Cybersecurity engagement is defined by artifacts rather than activity. These are the outputs handed over and reviewed with your teams.
- Risk-ranked findings register mapped to ISO 27001, SOC 2 or NIST CSF controls
- Zero trust target architecture and identity model documentation
- Policy-as-code guardrails and hardened Infrastructure as Code baselines
- Secure pipeline configuration with scanning gates and SBOM output
- Detection rulesets, SOAR playbooks and incident response runbooks
- AI governance register with model inventory and data-handling controls
- Audit-ready evidence pack and executive risk reporting

Cybersecurity, answered
Where does AX3 start on a zero trust program?
With identity and access: continuous, risk-based access control across users and devices, then segmentation and posture management across the cloud estate.
How does AX3 govern AI systems and data risk?
Through unified AI governance and GRC — model inventory, bias and misuse controls, audit trails and compliance reporting applied to AI and the data feeding it.
Can AX3 embed security into our existing delivery pipelines?
Yes. DevSecOps work adds scanning and policy-as-code at every pipeline stage so security runs from commit through production instead of as a pre-release gate.
How long does a security engagement take to show results?
A posture and identity assessment runs three to five weeks and produces a prioritized remediation plan. First-wave remediation — high-risk identity, exposure and misconfiguration fixes — typically lands within the following eight to twelve weeks.
What size security team does AX3 deploy?
A typical pod is a security architect plus two to four security engineers, extended with SOC analysts where monitoring is in scope. Engagements that only cover assessment and design run with a smaller two-person team.
How does AX3 price cybersecurity work?
Assessments and architecture work are fixed-price. Remediation and DevSecOps enablement run as a monthly pod rate. Managed detection support and SOC augmentation are priced monthly per coverage model, including 24x7 follow-the-sun options.
