## About

MatrixGard is a fractional DevSecOps practice for early-stage startups, funded or bootstrapped. We become your cloud, infrastructure and security team on a monthly retainer covering audits, hardening, cost optimization and incident readiness, without the cost of a senior hire.

The founder problem we solve: you need cloud architecture, CI/CD automation and security expertise, three separate disciplines, but you can only afford one senior hire who cannot credibly be all three. You get one owner across all three, one Slack channel, one invoice, and senior capacity from day one.

Service areas: AWS, GCP and Azure security baselines; CI/CD pipeline security with Trivy, Snyk and OWASP ZAP; FinOps and cloud cost optimization; SOC 2, ISO 27001, RBI Master Direction, DPDP Act and PCI DSS readiness; Kubernetes hardening; incident response readiness including fintech 6-hour reporting requirements.

On compliance scope, to be precise: we do readiness and remediation, not attestation. We are not an audit firm and do not issue SOC 2 reports or ISO certificates. Clients engage a licensed CPA firm or certification body for the audit itself, and we prepare them for it.

Founder-led, so the person who scopes the work is the person who does it. Engagement starts with a free 20-minute infrastructure review. Tiered monthly retainers from Rs 30,000 per month. No long-term lock-in. Remote-first from Chennai, working with teams anywhere.
