We use managed platform security controls, application-specific safeguards, testing, and automated security assessments. Higher-risk projects may require independent security review.

Potentially, depending on the information, security requirements, and applicable regulations. We evaluate those requirements before recommending an approach.

We test the agreed workflows, validate relevant data and access controls, review identified issues, and establish acceptance criteria before handoff.

We help transfer the application to your workspace, reconnect integrations, recreate scheduled tasks where needed, verify operation, and train your team.
