What We Offer

Ducker provides cybersecurity consulting focused on security engineering, assessments, and advisory work. Engagements are tailored to each client’s environment, constraints, and risk profile.

Explore our range of services designed to help you move forward with confidence, wherever you're headed next. Not sure which one you need? Contact us directly and we will find the right fit.

We help VC-backed SaaS teams build security programs that hold up under enterprise due diligence and SOC2 scrutiny — without the overhead of a full-time security hire.

Engagements are scoped to your environment, stage, and risk profile. Not sure where to start? We offer a complimentary Security Maturity Snapshot — a 30-minute structured assessment that benchmarks your posture across 6 domains and delivers a board-ready PDF. No heavy prep required.

  • A structured evaluation of your security posture across 6 domains — Identity, Cloud, DevSecOps, Incident Response, Governance, and AI Risk — designed for SaaS teams preparing for enterprise sales, SOC2, or investor due diligence.

    Scope includes:

    • Security posture benchmark across 6 domains with weighted maturity scoring

    • Risk heatmap by domain — shows exactly where you're exposed

    • Secure SDLC, application security, and infrastructure review (identity, networking, isolation)

    • Analysis of systemic strengths, gaps, and failure modes

    The assessment is designed to be efficient and minimally disruptive, and typically completes within 3–5 business days, depending on environment complexity.

    Deliverables:

    • Board-ready PDF report with executive summary and maturity score by domain

    • Risk prioritization based on likelihood, impact, and exploitability

    • 90-day prioritized remediation roadmap grounded in your architecture

    • Strategic input for your 2–3 year security program — investor and auditor ready

  • For organizations requiring deeper or broader coverage, we provide custom-scoped security engineering and advisory engagements.

    Extended scope may include:

    • Insider threat modeling and abuse case analysis

    • Threat intelligence and adversary capability profiling

    • AI and model security assessment (where applicable)

    • Enterprise-level risk analysis across systems and workflows

    • Infrastructure and platform security optimization

    These engagements are tailored to organizational risk profiles and are priced based on scope, depth, and duration.

  • For teams actively preparing for SOC2, enterprise sales, or a funding round where security posture is part of due diligence. We scope the engagement to close the specific gaps standing between you and the milestone.

    Scope is defined based on your audit timeline and control gaps. It may include:

    • SOC2 gap analysis mapped to Trust Service Criteria

    • Security policy and control documentation for auditors

    • AI governance documentation (where applicable)

    • Cloud, IAM, and DevSecOps control hardening

    • Enterprise-level risk analysis across systems and workflows

    These engagements are tailored to organizational risk profiles and are priced based on scope, depth, and duration.

  • For teams that require ongoing security engineering support without a full-time hire, Ducker offers a subscription-based engagement model.

    This is best suited (but not limited to) for SaaS teams that need senior security engineering capacity on an ongoing basis — without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire. This is designed for CTOs managing security alongside everything else.

    This service is designed to support:

    • Ongoing security review as your product and infrastructure evolve

    • Tuning and maintenance of security controls and tooling

    • Backfill of senior security engineering capacity during scaling or transitions

    • Architecture review and emerging risk analysis on a defined cadence

    Subscription engagements may include:

    • Ongoing advisory and design review

    • Hands-on security engineering support

    • Iterative risk analysis as systems evolve

    • Support for internal teams during transitions or scaling phases

    Subscriptions are scoped to a defined cadence and level of involvement, providing predictable access to senior-level security engineering expertise.

How We Work

Discovery & Problems Framing

Clients may arrive with a well-defined security problem or with a general sense that something is missing. We start by understanding your environment, constraints, and risk drivers to frame the problem correctly before proposing solutions.

Scoping & Alignment

Based on discovery, we define a clear engagement plan that aligns scope, priorities, and expectations. This includes identifying the appropriate depth of work, success criteria, and whether an assessment, targeted engagement, or ongoing support is the right fit.

Execution & Delivery

Every project is different. We stay flexible and responsive to make sure the process fits your flow—not the other way around.

Work is delivered through our assessment platform — producing structured outputs, risk scoring, and board-ready reports — combined with direct advisory and hands-on engineering support where needed.

Follow-Up

After delivery, we reassess changes in architecture, operations, or threat landscape to identify new or evolving risks. Ongoing support, periodic reviews, or subscription-based engagement ensure security controls remain effective as systems and requirements evolve.
