Black Belt – Managed AppSec & DevSecOps

Tiger Dojo’s Black Belt – Managed AppSec & DevSecOps is a purpose-built service for software teams who need strong application security without the overhead of building an internal AppSec program from scratch. Our solution is designed to work the way your team already does—embedded into your SDLC, aligned to your CI/CD pipeline, and focused on producing actionable insights instead of noisy scan results.

Black Belt is delivered in two flexible service models:

1. Full-Service AppSec Program – We take full ownership of your application security lifecycle. From tool configuration and integration to secure design reviews, threat modeling, and continuous vulnerability management, we function as your external AppSec team. Security scanning (SAST, DAST, SCA), SBOM creation, and risk triage are automated and enriched with expert validation. The result: fewer false positives, more accurate prioritization, and faster remediation timelines. We also help establish governance practices, define security policies, and align your organization with common compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and ISO 27001.

2. Modular AppSec Services – For teams with specific needs or existing tooling, we offer targeted service modules that can be consumed independently. Whether you need managed scanning (SAST, DAST), SBOM and supply chain risk visibility, secure architecture assessments, or developer-focused remediation guidance, Black Belt meets you where you are and grows with your security maturity. Each module is delivered with a strong emphasis on developer experience—security recommendations come with contextual, code-aware guidance that your team can act on without friction.

Security That Moves With Your Code

Built around Aikido Security’s API-first platform, Black Belt brings unified visibility across code, dependencies, containers, and infrastructure-as-code. We manage the tooling and handle the heavy lifting—scan orchestration, tuning, validation, and remediation advice—so your engineering teams can focus on building. With native support for GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and AWS CodePipeline, security becomes an integrated part of your software delivery process, not a blocker.

AWS Integrations:

• Amazon CodeBuild & CodePipeline: Trigger security scans automatically as part of your CI/CD flow.

• Amazon ECR: Scan container images stored in Amazon ECR for known vulnerabilities in base images and application dependencies.

• AWS Lambda: Identify and manage risk within serverless applications, including vulnerable packages and misconfigurations.

Expert Support, Real Outcomes

Security without outcomes is shelfware. Black Belt delivers real, measurable improvements in application security posture. From security awareness to policy-driven remediation, we provide ongoing guidance that connects engineering goals with risk management objectives. Whether you’re pursuing a compliance milestone, onboarding security for the first time, or looking to scale secure development practices across teams, Tiger Dojo helps you do it with precision, speed, and confidence.

If your team is tired of managing noisy tools and uncertain findings—or you just need more security expertise without expanding your headcount—Black Belt is your tactical AppSec partner.
