Global Security Engineering — SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, PCI-DSS

Security That Unlocks
Enterprise Deals, Not Just
Passes an Audit.

Security compliance is now a revenue gate. Enterprise procurement teams reject vendors without SOC 2, ISO 27001, or GDPR documentation within 48 hours. Naraway builds security into your architecture and guides you through certification — so your product earns trust globally, not just passes a checklist.

Secure by Architecture

OWASP Top 10 — Every Vulnerability Naraway Eliminates at Build Time

The OWASP Top 10 represents the most critical web application security risks, compiled from real-world breach data. Naraway implements defences for all ten as part of every engineering engagement — not as a post-launch audit.

Broken Access Control

RBAC enforcement at every API endpoint. Row-level security in the DB. Tenant isolation verified by automated tests.

A02 — 2021

Cryptographic Failures

TLS 1.2+ enforced everywhere. Sensitive data encrypted at rest (AES-256). Passwords hashed with bcrypt/Argon2.

A03 — 2021

Injection

Parameterized queries only (no string concatenation in SQL). Input sanitised. ORM usage enforced in code review.

A04 — 2021

Insecure Design

Threat modelling during architecture phase. Security user stories in every sprint. Abuse case mapping for all features.

A05 — 2021

Security Misconfiguration

Infrastructure as Code with mandatory tfsec scan. Secrets in vault, not env files. Default credentials removed. CSP headers enforced.

A06 — 2021

Vulnerable Components

Dependabot and Snyk on every repo. SBOM generated per release. CVE triage process with SLA by severity.

A07 — 2021

Auth Failures

Refresh token rotation. MFA enforced for admin roles. Account lockout after 5 failed attempts. Session invalidation on logout.

A08 — 2021

Data Integrity Failures

Signed release artifacts. CI pipeline integrity protected. Deserialization done only on trusted, typed schemas.

A09 — 2021

Logging Failures

Structured audit logs for every data-touching action. SIEM integration. Log retention policy enforced with tamper evidence.

A10 — 2021

Server-Side Request Forgery

URL allowlisting for all outbound requests. Metadata endpoint protection on cloud instances. Network egress filtering.

Compliance Frameworks

Four Frameworks, One Security Programme

Naraway builds a unified security programme that satisfies multiple frameworks simultaneously — because the controls for SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and PCI-DSS overlap by over 60%. One implementation, multiple certifications.

SOC 2 Type II

Trust Services Criteria — US Enterprise Standard

Required by US enterprise procurement for SaaS vendors handling customer data. Covers Security, Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, and Privacy.

Access Control Change Management Risk Assessment Incident Response Vendor Management Monitoring
ISO 27001:2022

International ISMS Standard — Global Enterprise Trust

The globally recognised information security management system standard. Required for enterprise deals in Europe, Asia-Pacific, and government sectors worldwide.

Annex A Controls Risk Register ISMS Policy Suite Internal Audit Management Review
GDPR / UK GDPR

EU and UK Data Protection — Mandatory for EU Market

Article 25 (privacy by design), data subject rights implementation, DPAs with processors, and breach notification within 72 hours. Fines up to 4% of global annual revenue.

DPIA Data Inventory Consent Management Right to Erasure Data Portability DPO Support
PCI-DSS v4.0

Payment Card Security — Required for Card Processing

Required for any product handling cardholder data. 12 requirement domains covering network security, access control, testing, and security policies.

Cardholder Data Scope Network Segmentation Tokenisation QSA Audit Support
Security Operations Centre — global monitoring dashboard with real-time threat detection across client infrastructure Replace with: SOC dashboard photo or illustration
Compliance certification badges display — SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, PCI-DSS logos arranged on dark background Replace with: Compliance trust badge graphic
Penetration Testing

How Naraway Finds What Attackers Would Find — Before They Do

A penetration test is a structured, authorised simulation of a real attack. Naraway conducts external, internal, and application-layer pen tests, delivering findings with CVSS scores and proof-of-concept exploits that your engineering team can act on immediately.

Replace with: Explainer video or screen-recorded pen test walkthrough

1

Scoping and Rules of Engagement

IP ranges, domains, auth accounts, and out-of-scope systems defined and signed off

2

Reconnaissance

OSINT, subdomain enumeration, tech stack fingerprinting, exposed credential search

3

Vulnerability Discovery

Automated scanning plus manual testing — auth flaws, injection points, business logic

4

Exploitation

Proof-of-concept exploits produced for all high/critical findings. Impact assessed per finding.

5

Reporting

Executive summary + technical findings with CVSS scores, screenshots, reproduction steps

6

Retest and Attestation

All findings retested after patch. Clean attestation letter issued for procurement teams.

Business Case

Security Compliance Is Now a Revenue Unlock, Not a Cost Centre

Enterprise deals above $50K ACV almost always hit a security review gate. Vendors without SOC 2 or ISO 27001 are removed from shortlists before commercial conversations even begin. The return on a security programme is measured in deals won, not vulnerabilities patched.

Naraway clients who achieved SOC 2 Type II certification reported an average 40% reduction in deal cycle length for enterprise accounts and qualification for RFPs they were previously excluded from.

Engagement Model

From Security Assessment to Certified and Audit-Ready

Naraway runs security and compliance engagements as structured programmes with clear milestones — not open-ended retainers with vague deliverables.

1

Security Assessment

Current posture mapped, gap analysis vs target framework, risk register started, roadmap defined

2

Architecture Hardening

OWASP defences implemented, infra secured via IaC, secrets management, network segmentation

3

Controls and Policies

Policy suite written, procedures documented, evidence collection tools configured (Vanta or Drata)

5

Audit and Certification

Auditor coordination, evidence submission, certification issued. ESQ response library maintained.

Frequently Asked

Security and Compliance — Questions from Global Product Teams

SOC 2 Type I is a point-in-time assessment of whether your security controls are suitably designed. Type II audits over a period (typically 6-12 months) to prove those controls actually operated effectively. Enterprise procurement teams typically require Type II. Naraway helps you build the controls, gather evidence continuously, and prepare for the Type II audit observation window.
The full SOC 2 Type II journey typically takes 9-18 months: 2-3 months to implement controls and achieve Type I readiness, then a 6-12 month audit observation period, then 1-2 months for the auditor to issue the report. Naraway compresses the controls implementation phase using automated evidence collection tools and pre-built policy templates.
GDPR compliance requires: data inventory and classification, consent management and lawful basis tracking, right-to-erasure workflows, data portability exports, data processing agreements with vendors, breach notification processes (72-hour requirement), data minimisation at the API and database level, and privacy-by-design in new feature development. Naraway implements these as product features and internal process tooling.
A Naraway penetration test covers: external network reconnaissance and attack surface mapping, web application testing (OWASP Top 10 plus business logic flaws), API security testing, internal network testing if in scope, and a detailed finding report with CVSS scores, proof-of-concept exploits, and prioritised remediation steps. All findings are retested after patching to produce a clean attestation letter.
Yes. Enterprise security questionnaires — including CAIQ, VSA, and custom questionnaires from Fortune 500 procurement teams — require detailed answers about your security programme. Naraway maintains an answer library covering 400+ common questions and can turn around most ESQs in 3-5 business days.
