MatrixGard

MatrixGard offers a fractional DevSecOps service tailored for early-stage startups in India, Singapore, the UAE, the UK, and the US. We act as your cloud, infrastructure, and security team on a monthly retainer, providing comprehensive audits, system hardening, cost optimization, and incident preparedness, all without the expense of hiring a senior staff member. We specifically address the challenges faced by pre-seed founders who require expertise in cloud architecture, CI/CD automation, and security—three distinct fields—while being limited to the budget for just one senior hire, who is unlikely to be proficient in all three areas. Our solution delivers a unified team, a single communication channel via Slack, one invoice, and access to senior expertise from the outset. Our services include establishing security baselines on AWS, GCP, and Azure; securing CI/CD pipelines using tools like Trivy, Snyk, and OWASP ZAP; optimizing cloud costs and financial operations; preparing for compliance with SOC 2, ISO 27001, RBI Master Direction, DPDP Act, and PCI-DSS; hardening Kubernetes environments; and ensuring readiness for incident response, particularly for fintech with 6-hour reporting obligations. Engagement begins with a complimentary 20-minute infrastructure assessment, and our tiered monthly retainers start at Rs 40,000, with no long-term commitments required.
