About eFlag

Engineers who lived the development cycle and know how to protect it.

We are not consultants who learned security. We are a team of AppSec engineers with real software development experience in high-impact companies: fintechs, media outlets, digital platforms.

01
Manifesto

Application security is not a development stage.

It's a discipline that needs to live inside teams, processes and everyday tools. When security only shows up at retest, what's left is debt. And security debt comes due as a public incident.

eFlag was born from a conviction: to truly solve AppSec, you need to understand the engineering flow from the inside. That's why the model is consulting + research + product. And that's why intelligence circulates between the three legs all the time.

What goes back to the client is methodology, not secrets. What we discover in the field, we publish.

02 Working principles

How we think about AppSec in practice.

Six principles that guide every engagement, from a one-week diagnosis to a two-year program.

Engineering first.

We speak the dev's language because we come from dev. Code review with security in mind, not a slide deck with a memorized framework.

Real risk, not compliance theater.

We prioritize by what matters to the business. A CVSS 9 that isn't exploitable ranks below a CVSS 6 that is. Findings without context don't become tickets.

Responsible disclosure.

Field research becomes public CVEs. We coordinate with maintainers and give users time to update before publishing details.

The loop is the company.

Services feed research. Research becomes product. Product makes services sharper. It's a cycle, not a straight line.

Speed is not the enemy.

Projects that run at the client's release pace without blocking the pipeline of those who ship. We come in before the code, not after.

Signal over noise.

A security pipeline that fires 14,000 alerts is a pipeline nobody reads. We configure it to fire 40, and get the team to act on all 40.
