Software Development & DevSecOps

Modern software, delivered securely and continuously.

SIS builds and modernizes web applications, APIs, and integrations using agile delivery, automated testing, and secure CI/CD pipelines — so quality and security are part of every commit.

Overview

Modern software, delivered securely and continuously.

Good software is small batches, fast feedback, and nothing deployed that hasn't been tested and scanned. SIS pairs development with built-in quality engineering, because our roots are in verification and validation.

We build user-centered applications, modernize legacy systems incrementally, and leave behind maintainable code, pipelines, and documentation.

Mission applications

Where it makes a difference.

Representative ways organizations put these capabilities to work.

Public-facing services

Accessible digital services that work on any device.

Internal tools

Replace spreadsheets and email workflows with purpose-built applications.

API enablement

Expose legacy data safely to new applications and partners.

Pipeline modernization

Move from manual releases to automated, auditable deployments.

Secure supply chain

Know exactly what is in your software with SBOMs and scanning.

Incremental modernization

Retire legacy components piece by piece without a risky big-bang.

Our approach

A disciplined path from need to outcome.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Understand users, workflows, constraints, and success measures.

  2. 02

    Design

    Define architecture, backlog, and acceptance criteria.

  3. 03

    Build in sprints

    Deliver working increments with automated tests.

  4. 04

    Secure & verify

    Scan, test, and review every change in the pipeline.

  5. 05

    Release & support

    Deploy continuously, monitor, and iterate on feedback.

Questions

Frequently asked.

Do you work in agile?

Yes — typically Scrum or Kanban with short iterations, visible backlogs, and regular demos.

Who owns the code?

Ownership is defined by contract; our default is that customers own the code, pipelines, and documentation we deliver.

Can you modernize without shutting down the old system?

Yes. Incremental patterns let new components take over gradually while the legacy system keeps running.

How is security handled?

Security checks run automatically in the pipeline, and findings are triaged like any other defect before release.
