Security & Compliance Advisory

Expert security and compliance consulting tailored to your business needs.

Security and compliance are fundamental to every modern digital platform. Web applications, APIs, cloud infrastructure, databases, user accounts, and personal data can all introduce security, privacy, and compliance risks. Security should not begin just before deployment. Every application should incorporate security, privacy, accessibility, and compliance considerations across the design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance lifecycle. This approach helps organizations build digital platforms where security and compliance are considered from the beginning—not added as an afterthought.

CruxBytes provides Security & Compliance Advisory services to help organizations identify vulnerabilities, strengthen application security, protect sensitive data, and prepare their digital platforms for applicable security and compliance requirements. Our approach combines application security, accessibility, data protection, governance, and compliance readiness to create safer and more dependable digital experiences.

Build Secure, Compliant & Trustworthy Digital Applications

A secure application is not necessarily a compliant application—and compliance should not be treated as a last-minute activity before an audit. Our recommendations are prioritized according to your technology environment, business requirements, risk exposure, and applicable standards.

We help organizations assess and strengthen their technology environment across:

Web application and API securityApplication architecture and access controlsData protection and privacyCloud and infrastructure securityVulnerability and risk managementAccessibility and usability
Security policies and governanceCompliance and audit readiness

Web Application Security & Compliance

We work extensively with organizations that require secure, accessible, and compliant web applications and digital platforms, particularly where government, citizen, customer, or sensitive business data is involved.

GIGW Readiness

Support for Guidelines for Indian Government Websites (GIGW) requirements, including assessment of website quality, accessibility, security, usability, content, and related governance practices.

GIGW is an important reference for Indian government websites, and STQC's Website Quality Certification Scheme incorporates GIGW requirements.

VAPT / STQC Readiness & Advisory

Help organizations prepare websites and web applications for relevant STQC evaluation and certification processes, including identification of quality, accessibility, security, and process-related gaps, VAPT (Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing), WAPT (Web Application Penetration Testing).

STQC's Website Quality Certification framework addresses areas including security hardening, accessibility, usability, and GIGW compliance.

WCAG Accessibility

Design and assess web interfaces against WCAG accessibility principles, helping make digital platforms more accessible to users with diverse abilities.

WCAG covers websites, web applications, and digital content, with conformance levels A, AA, and AAA.

DPDP Act Readiness

Help organizations review how digital personal data is collected, processed, stored, accessed, and protected within their applications and technology ecosystem.

The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 establishes a framework for processing digital personal data while recognizing individuals' rights over their personal data. The DPDP Rules, 2025 provide additional operational requirements and were notified by MeitY in November 2025.

Whether you are developing a new web application, modernizing an existing platform, preparing for GIGW or STQC requirements, strengthening WCAG accessibility, or addressing DPDP-related data protection considerations, CruxBytes can help you identify the right priorities and create a practical path forward.

API & Integration Security

Evaluate APIs and integrations for appropriate authentication, authorization, data protection, and secure communication.

Accessibility & Inclusive Design

Assess digital interfaces against applicable accessibility requirements and WCAG principles to improve usability for users with different abilities.
