Security & audits

Find the weak spots before someone else does.

Practical security reviews of web apps, APIs, WordPress sites and smart contracts — with findings ranked by real risk and help implementing the fixes, not just a PDF.

Overview

Security reviews that end in fixes, not just findings.

Most breaches are not clever. They come from a forgotten admin account, an outdated plugin, an API that returns another customer’s data when an ID is changed, or a contract function nobody thought to restrict. A focused review finds these before an attacker, a customer or a regulator does.

We combine automated scanning with manual testing and code review, concentrating on what an attacker would go after first: authentication, permissions, payments and personal data. Findings are ranked by real-world risk and written so both developers and decision-makers understand them.

Then we help fix them. Because we build in the same stacks we review — WordPress, Laravel, PHP, Python and Solidity — we can implement the changes with your team rather than leaving you with a list.

Who it’s for

  • Startups preparing for launch, funding or an enterprise customer
  • Businesses handling payments or personal data
  • Owners of WordPress sites that have been hacked or are exposed
  • Web3 teams that want a review before an external audit

What we deliver

What you get

01

Web application review

Authentication, access control, input handling, session and data exposure checked against the OWASP Top 10.

02

API security review

Object-level authorisation, rate limits, token handling and data leakage checked against the OWASP API Security Top 10.

03

WordPress hardening

Plugin and theme risks, user roles, file permissions, login protection, backups and monitoring on your live site.

04

Smart-contract review

Manual review of Solidity code for reentrancy, access control, oracle, signature and arithmetic issues.

05

Infrastructure and secrets

Server exposure, TLS, firewall rules, secret storage and who can access what.

06

Prioritised report and fixes

Plain-English findings ranked by risk, with a fix plan — and our help implementing it if you want it.

Signs you need this

This is for you if…

  • You are launching soon and nobody has tried to break the app.
  • A customer, partner or investor has asked about your security.
  • You store personal data or payment information.
  • Your site was hacked before and you are not sure how.
  • Smart contracts are about to hold user funds.
  • Developers have come and gone and access was never reviewed.

How we work

A clear process, from scope to remediation.

  1. Scope

    What is being reviewed, which environments, what is off limits and how we will communicate urgent findings.

  2. Review

    Automated scanning plus manual testing and code review, focused on the areas with most at stake.

  3. Report

    Findings with severity, evidence and clear fixes, plus a short summary for non-technical leaders.

  4. Fix

    We help your team implement fixes — or implement them ourselves — in order of risk.

  5. Verify

    A re-test of fixed issues and advice on keeping security healthy as the product changes.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can’t see your question? Ask us directly — you’ll get a straight, practical answer, even if it’s “you don’t need us for this”.

Is this a penetration test?

Our reviews combine testing and code review, and are ideal before launch or before a formal third-party penetration test. If you need an independent certified pen-test for compliance, we help you prepare for it and fix what it finds.

Will you test our live site?

Only with written permission and an agreed scope. We prefer testing a staging copy for anything that could affect data or availability, and we tell you immediately if we find something critical.

What will the report look like?

A short executive summary, then each finding with severity, how we found it, why it is important and exactly how to fix it. No padding with low-value scanner output.

Can you fix the issues too?

Yes. Many clients ask us to implement the fixes, especially for WordPress, Laravel, PHP and Python applications. Security reviews that end with a report nobody acts on do not make anyone safer.

How do you treat our data during the review?

We access only what is needed, use test accounts where possible, never copy real personal data off your systems, and delete any working files after the engagement. We are happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement.

Does this make us compliant with data-protection rules?

A review supports compliance but is not the same thing. The Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and regulations like GDPR expect appropriate technical measures; our work helps you show them. Your data-protection lead or adviser should confirm what applies to you.

How often should we have a review?

Before major launches, after big changes to authentication or payments, and at least yearly for systems handling sensitive data — plus continuous dependency updates in between.

Have something in mind? Let’s scope it.

Tell us what you’re building, or what’s broken. We’ll come back with questions, a suggested approach and the simplest sensible next step — no obligation.
