Security Architecture
Security designed in from the first diagram, not bolted on after the fact.
Most security incidents exploit architecture, not zero-days: flat networks, implicit trust, and segmentation that exists on a slide but not in the data plane. Security that works is a property of the design, applied consistently at every boundary.
Foundry builds Zero Trust into the network itself, identity-driven access, enforced segmentation, and a firewall strategy that is coherent across the estate rather than a patchwork of point decisions. We design for assurance you can demonstrate to auditors and regulators.
The same discipline extends to operational technology. Industrial control systems are segmented into zones and conduits to IEC 62443, the boundary between IT and OT is engineered rather than assumed, and the availability of the process is treated as a security requirement, not an afterthought.
Scope, specified.
Zero Trust Architecture
Identity-based access with least privilege enforced at every boundary, removing implicit trust between zones, sites and users.
Network Segmentation
Macro- and micro-segmentation that bounds blast radius and contains lateral movement, mapped to your risk model.
Network Access Control
Posture-aware admission with Cisco ISE, devices and users authenticated and authorised before they touch the network.
Firewall Strategy
Consistent policy, ruleset rationalisation and segmentation enforcement across Palo Alto, Fortinet and Cisco estates.
Secure Remote Access
VPN and zero-trust access designs with strong authentication and endpoint posture, built for a distributed workforce.
OT & ICS Security
IEC 62443 zones and conduits and Purdue-model segmentation for industrial control systems, with an industrial DMZ so IT and OT exchange only what they must.
Security Architecture Review
Independent assessment of segmentation, trust boundaries and policy, with a prioritised remediation roadmap.
A disciplined path.
- 01
Model
We define trust boundaries, data flows and the threat model the architecture has to hold against.
- 02
Design
Segmentation, identity and policy are designed as one system, with enforcement points placed deliberately.
- 03
Enforce
Policy is translated into concrete configuration on NAC, firewalls and the fabric, design becomes data plane.
- 04
Assure
We validate the controls behave under test and produce the evidence needed for audit and accreditation.
What changes.
Access granted by identity and posture, never by network location alone.
Lateral movement bounded by enforced segmentation, not hope.
Controls you can demonstrate to regulators and accreditors.
Engineering-led from the first conversation.
You talk to the architect who will design it. Bring us the security architecture problem and we'll respond with engineering judgement.
