Sibedge Audit Services

Best practice dictates that an audit needs to be performed by an external team. A fresh look, guided by a systematic approach, will reveal areas for improvement that the involved developers might have missed.

Architecture Audit

Sibedge experts provide a comprehensive examination of the system's technical components, including the software stack. It focuses on scalability, security, compliance, and performance. We provide recommendations to optimize performance, enhance security, and align with industry standards. Our objective is to ensure a robust and regulatory-compliant product experience.
Architecture Audit

Infrastructure Audit

In this phase, we thoroughly evaluate your technology infrastructure, including hardware, software virtualization, network, cloud components, and CI/CD processes. Our assessment ensures reliability, scalability, performance, and security while seamlessly integrating with CI/CD pipelines. Our goal is to create a robust environment for efficient product development and deployment that overcomes constraints like long deployment cycles, limited production access, and high costs. We aim to make the process cost-effective and reduce time-to-market by optimizing CI/CD processes and potentially eliminating redundant steps or loops.
Infrastructure Audit

Databases Audit

Sibedge performs a comprehensive database audit that includes a deep analysis of the database architecture and functionality. We examine the design and structure of the database. We focus on intricate aspects like index usage to determine the efficiency of query processing. The goal of this assessment goes beyond optimizing the effectiveness, responsiveness, and consistency within the database system. It also aims to align the database with technical benchmarks to ensure a seamless and high-performance user experience. The result is scalability, fault tolerance, and high availability of data. We also help you evaluate and select the clustering format that best meets your unique needs.
Databases Audit

Security Audit

Our security audit for fintech products goes beyond the surface to evaluate critical elements such as authentication, access controls, encryption, and secure protocols. Equipped with a keen awareness of the paramount importance of security in the fintech landscape, we leverage respected vulnerability databases (e.g., OWASP) and industry-standard tools (e.g., Snyk) to uncover and remediate significant security weaknesses in your services and protocols.
Security Audit

SDLC

Our experienced team conducts a thorough assessment of your software development processes and scrutinizes every aspect, from requirements management to deployment practices. We understand the critical balance between stability and release velocity in the competitive fintech landscape. Through a comprehensive SDLC audit, we pinpoint areas for improvement and pave the way for optimized workflows, enhanced software quality, and efficient compliance measures. This audit ensures that your releases are timely and stable, meeting both user expectations and industry standards.

Code Review

Code review plays an important role in fintech product development through the careful examination of source code. Our code review process not only analyzes code structure, logic flow, and variable naming, but it also ensures adherence to coding standards and effective error handling. This quality-focused approach is at the core of our audit, which is designed to provide your team with the tools, insights, and processes needed to achieve consistent code excellence. By fostering a culture of thorough code review, we contribute to higher software quality, faster validation, improved stability, and a stronger overall development process.
