Secure, Scalable EdTech You Can Trust

Ensure compliance, performance, and uptime — even during peak exam loads

The Cloud Architect's Dilemma

Education technology has evolved from simple LMSs to globally distributed ecosystems delivering real-time, data-driven learning experiences.
But with that evolution comes chaos: infrastructure complexity, global concurrency, and strict compliance obligations.

‍You’re not just building a platform — you’re running a digital school district at global scale.

Peak-time performance meltdowns

Exam week, new curriculum launches, or partner rollouts push systems past capacity.

Compliance drag

CIPA, COPPA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, FERPA, and GDPR aren’t one-and-done checkboxes.

Developer fatigue

Manual pen testing, ad-hoc audits, and reactive fixes slow release cycles.

Cost-to-scale imbalance

Over-provisioning burns budget; under-provisioning risks outages.

Security blind spots

APIs, integrations, and 3rd-party plugins create unseen attack surfaces.

EdTech needs continuous confidence — not periodic panic.

The Continuous Confidence Framework

Proactive Security

Protect every release from day one. Automated scans catch vulnerabilities early so you can launch confidently without risking data or trust.

Resilient Performance

Keep every learner experience smooth. Continuous load simulations reveal weaknesses before they turn into downtime or lost sessions.

Built‑in Compliance

Stay ahead of audits. Real-time mapping to SOC 2, ISO 27001, FERPA,GDPR, CIPA, COPPA, State student data laws, and DPA ensures compliance is always up to date.

DevOps Integration

Work smarter, not slower. Integrate security and performance testing directly into your development pipeline for faster, safer releases.

Continuous Improvement

Turn insights into lasting strength. Every test helps your team optimize performance, tighten security, and keep your platform ready for scale.

How we provide the framework

Vortex :
Automated Penetration Testing

Proactively discover and fix vulnerabilities — automatically mapped to compliance frameworks and turned into dev tickets so you never fall behind
LEarn More

Make security effortless.

Vortex continuously scans your environment to uncover high-impact risks before attackers do and automatically turns those findings into actionable fixes.

Capabilities:

Continuous Security Testing: Ongoing automated penetration testing ensures vulnerabilities are caught as soon as they appear.
Auto-Remediation : Vortex doesn’t just find issues; it recommends or executes fixes automatically to close gaps faster.
Smart Ticketing: Create or update Jira and GitHub tickets instantly from findings, turning discovery into action without slowing developers down.
Risk‑Based Prioritization: Focus on what truly matters with ranked insights by business impact and exploitability.
Compliance Integration: Provides auditor-ready evidence packages mapped to controls.

Maelstrom:
The Ultimate Cloud Resilience

Simulate real learner demand to ensure your platform performs flawlessly at any scale.
LEarn More

Deliver seamless performance under any load.

Maelstrom simulates real-world learner behavior to expose performance bottlenecks and scaling issues long before they impact users.

Capabilities:

Global Load Simulation: Test millions of concurrent users across multiple regions to validate real performance under pressure.
Auto-Scaling Optimization: Identify cost-saving opportunities while ensuring resources scale intelligently.
Service Cascade Analysis: Detect how a single failure could ripple across APIs or microservices before it happens.
Real-Time Visualization: Monitor latency, throughput, and health metrics live to make data-backed optimization decisions.
Compliance Integration: Every finding maps directly to SOC 2, ISO 27001, FERPA, and GDPR controls for instant audit evidence.
Exam‑Safe Scheduling : Smart scheduling automatically avoids testing during sensitive periods like exam windows, ensuring zero disruption to learners.

Why Us?

Simulate real learner demand to ensure your platform performs flawlessly at any scale.

Continuous Penetration Testing

Prevent breaches, protect brand. Find vulnerabilities before they become incidents.

Continuous Load & Stress Testing

Guarantee performance under pressure — no crashes during exams or launches.

Compliance Intelligence Mapping

Always audit-ready — technical findings translated into control evidence.

Automated Remediation  & CI/CD Integration

From discovery to fix in minutes — no more audit surprises or manual handoffs.

We call it Continuous Education Assurance.
Because your mission deserves infrastructure as resilient as the minds it empowers.

Build a Learning Platform That Can Handle the Future of Education

Your mission is to teach the world.
Ours is to make sure nothing — not scale, not compliance, not cyber threats — ever stops you.
