How we work
The same habits on a two-week integration as on a long-running platform. They follow published UK and international guidance rather than house rules.
Threats and data flows are mapped before code is written. Secure defaults from the start: least privilege, encrypted connections, input validation and secrets kept out of the code, checked against OWASP ASVS.
Every change goes in through a pull request with a written description, a security checklist and automated checks. If your team wants to review changes too, they can.
Unit and integration tests run on every change. When a bug turns up, the fix comes with a test that reproduces it, so it stays fixed.
Builds, tests, linting and dependency vulnerability checks run automatically. Releases are small, frequent and easy to roll back, and nothing reaches production without passing.
A README that gets a new developer running, notes on the architecture and the decisions behind it, and a runbook for deploying and recovering. Written so someone else can take over.
Interfaces built to WCAG 2.2 level AA: full keyboard access, visible focus, readable contrast, proper form labels and error messages, and checks with a screen reader.
Data protection by design and by default, as UK GDPR requires. Collect only what is needed, keep it only as long as it is needed, limit who can see it, and support a DPIA where the processing calls for one.
A short written update every week: what is done, what is next, and anything that needs a decision from you. No jargon, and no surprises.
A fixed price for well-defined work, or a monthly arrangement for ongoing development, support or running your ISMS. Either way, you agree the cost before work starts.
About
SW Digital Services was founded by Sam Wilkinson to give UK businesses straightforward help with two things that are easy to get wrong: information security and the software that runs the business.
The company makes ClearIMS, so the consulting and the software come from the same working knowledge of ISO 27001: what the standard asks for, what an auditor will want to see, and what a small team can realistically keep running after the audit.
Work is done directly with you, not passed down a chain. Sam can meet in person across Hull and East Yorkshire, and works remotely with businesses anywhere in the UK.
Contact
A few lines is enough: what you are trying to do, and any deadline. You will get a reply from Sam personally, not an automated sequence.
