What We Do

Security Services Built
for the Modern Threat Landscape

From strategy to implementation, we forge zero-trust architectures that scale with your business.

Zero Trust Architecture

Design and implement identity-centric, never-trust-always-verify architectures across your entire infrastructure — from workloads to users to devices.

  • Zero Trust Strategy & Roadmap
  • Workload Identity with SPIFFE/Istio
  • Network Micro-Segmentation

Kubernetes Security

Harden Kubernetes clusters end-to-end — from admission control and RBAC to runtime threat detection and supply chain security. CKS-certified expertise.

  • CIS Benchmark Hardening
  • Admission Control with Kyverno
  • Runtime & Supply Chain Security

Secrets Management

Eliminate hardcoded credentials and static secrets with dynamic, short-lived secrets delivered by HashiCorp Vault across every environment. Vault-certified.

  • HashiCorp Vault Design & Deployment
  • Dynamic Secrets & PKI
  • Secrets Rotation & Auditing

DevSecOps & Platform Engineering

Embed security into your CI/CD pipelines and platform engineering workflows — shifting left so vulnerabilities are caught before they reach production.

  • Secure CI/CD Pipeline Design
  • GitOps with Argo CD & Policy Gates
  • Container Image Scanning & SBOM

Cloud Security Posture

Continuously assess and remediate misconfigurations across multi-cloud environments — AWS, Azure, and GCP — with automated compliance enforcement.

  • CSPM & Cloud Misconfiguration Review
  • IAM Least-Privilege Enforcement
  • Azure Defender & Security Hub

Infrastructure as Code Security

Build secure, auditable, and compliant infrastructure from day one using Terraform — with integrated security scanning, drift detection, and policy validation.

  • Terraform Security Architecture
  • IaC Policy Enforcement (Sentinel/OPA)
  • Drift Detection & Compliance Automation

Our Technology Stack

Istio Ambient Mesh

Sidecar-free service mesh for transparent mTLS, L4/L7 policy, and zero-trust traffic within Kubernetes clusters.

Service Mesh

HashiCorp Vault

Dynamic secrets, PKI, encryption as a service, and identity-based access to secrets across every cloud environment.

Secrets Management

Kubernetes

Container orchestration platform underpinning our zero-trust workload segmentation, RBAC, and admission control policies.

Orchestration

Kyverno

Kubernetes-native policy engine for validating, mutating, and generating configurations — enforcing security standards at admission time.

Policy Management

Terraform

Infrastructure as code for provisioning and managing cloud resources with consistent, auditable, and version-controlled configurations.

IaC

Argo CD

GitOps continuous delivery for Kubernetes — every cluster state is declared in Git, auditable, and automatically reconciled with policy guardrails.

GitOps

Falco

Cloud-native runtime security tool that detects unexpected behavior, intrusions, and policy violations in real time across containers and Kubernetes.

Runtime Security

Trivy

Comprehensive vulnerability scanner for container images, filesystems, Git repos, and IaC — integrated into CI/CD pipelines for shift-left security.

Vulnerability Scanning

kube-bench

Automated CIS Kubernetes Benchmark checks — validates cluster hardening across control plane, etcd, kubelet, and worker node configurations.

10 Years Building
Security That Holds.

Chehine Marouani is a cloud security architect with over a decade of hands-on experience in digital transformation, distributed systems, and Kubernetes-native infrastructure. Educated at Université Paris-Saclay, he has worked across complex enterprise environments with a focus on making security an enabler — not a bottleneck.

At Zero Trust Forge, Chehine applies his deep expertise in zero-trust architecture, DevSecOps, and platform engineering to help organizations move beyond perimeter thinking. From Vault-backed secrets management to Istio Ambient mesh deployments and Kyverno policy enforcement, every engagement is built on hard-won production experience.

■
Verify Explicitly

Always authenticate and authorize using all available data points.

■
Least Privilege Access

Limit user access with just-in-time and just-enough-access policies.

■
Assume Breach

Minimize blast radius and segment access to contain potential damage.
